Platform Independency

The Weblicon system architecture has been designed for maximum platform neutrality by using cross platform application frameworks and supporting industry standard protocols for seamless interoperability.

Operating System

Being built entirely using the Java programming language, the Weblicon PIM application and the WebObjects application framework can be deployed on any operating system supporting the Java platform. The WebObjects application server is certified for Sun Solaris, HP/UX, Windows NT/2000 and OS X Server. Weblicon prefers Sun Solaris based deployments because of the high stability, strong performance and wide availability of this OS.

Application Server

The Weblicon PIM applications are built using the WebObjects application framework and can be deployed on the WebObjects application server or any J2EE compliant application server, such as BEA WebLogic or IBM WebSphere. When deploying on J2EE application servers, the JSP architecture is used for integrating the application.

IMAP Server

The Weblicon PIM Messaging module uses IMAP 4 for accessing the message store and supports any IMAP server conforming to the standard. Interoperability has been tested with various IMAP servers including Courier-IMAP / Qmail, MS Exchange, iPlanet and Critical Path servers.

LDAP Server

The Weblicon PIM Address Book module uses standard LDAP v3 for accessing user records and address book information stored in any Directory server conforming to the LDAP standard. Interoperability has been tested with OpenLDAP, iPlanet Directory Server and Critical Path Directory Server.

RDBMS Server

Calendaring data, preferences and other information of the Weblicon PIM applications are stored in relational database systems (RDBMS). By using the industry-proven Enterprise Objects Framework, which is based on the JDBC architecture, the Weblicon PIM is independent from the database used. Interoperability has been tested with different versions of Oracle and FrontBase systems.
