Main modules
The
BlackBerry AtHoc
platform is composed of two types of server components:- Database serverThe database server is based onMicrosoft SQL Server.
- Application server (one or more servers): The application server acts as a web-based application server that provides all user-related interactions. The application server also runs theBlackBerry AtHocservices, which are responsible for scheduling events, providing notification delivery, and running background batch processes used for integration with external applications and content sources.
The database and application servers interact with the
AtHoc
Desktop App, Web browsers, and various delivery gateways such as telephony and SMS. Additionally, the servers provide integration points with enterprise application suites, such as LDAP, Active Directory, HR, and your organization's portals.In cases where redundancy is needed, a
BlackBerry AtHoc
disaster recovery solution can be implemented so that notification capabilities can be transferred to an alternate site if the primary BlackBerry AtHoc
platform becomes unreachable.
