Administration
Architecture
The KonaKart Admin App server is a multi-threaded stateless component that contains the core functionality to administer the eCommerce application. It includes a persistence layer to connect to the relational database and a plug-in framework for controlling the deployment of payment, shipping and order total modules. It exposes a Java and a SOAP Web Service API.
The Admin App client is a browser based application developed using Google’s GWT technology. It uses AJAX technology and Java script to provide a very responsive and productive user interface, ideal for the use of an administrator.
The client communicates with the server exclusively through the documented API. This means that all of the functionality is available should you need to build your own client in another technology.
