The ReFrame Application
Service Grid
The ReFrame Application Service Grid is an
important advance in meeting the needs of businesses
that need to distribute, scale, and evolve their
systems and applications. Applications written
for the ReFrame
Application Service Grid are 
inherently
distributable, scalable and extraordinarily
changeable.
The Core Architecture
ReFrame's ActivArchitecture consists of the
following four key technologies:
- LiveObject
Technology - allows any data element or group
of elements to have agency, the ability to
calculate, act independently, and to communicate
with other applications or with the people running
the business.
- ObjectServices
- any ReFrame Object can act as a service - a
provider of software functionality to other
objects or systems
- Exception Handler
- exceptions that occur, even unanticipated ones,
generally do not affect normal operation.
Exceptions are sent to the Exception Handler from
where they can be retrieved, examined and resolved
manually or automatically.
- Message-based
Architecture - ReFrame Objects communicate
with each other, both within a single machine and
among machines, by sending and receiving messages.
ReFrame enables you to quickly, easily, and safely
accommodate the changing size and shape of your
business.
