The Enterprise Application Framework - JVx - was developed to create

• professional database applications
• based on open source
  
• highly performant
• in the shortest time possible
• with little source code

The framework is however not just another RIA, RAD & co. technology, but rather offers a finished frame to create database applications. All components which are needed for an Enterprise Application are already contained.

Due to the openness, flexibility and extendibility, it is no necessary to build on the contained application frames. The JVx framework can also serve as an extension to your existing applications.

The JVx EAF integrates the following components:

• Generic and technology-independet User Interface
• Active generic model
• Data independent and database independent controller
• Image/icon library
• Integrated multilinguality
• Various application frames (Login/Logout, menu, toolbar, MDI, error dialog)
• Client and Server Tier
• Client and Server action concept
• Session management
• Authentication with selectable security managers (database, XML, ADS)
• Exchangeable communication protocols
• dynamic online help

By maintaining the design paradigm Convention over Configuration, a quick implementation of the requirements is offered to the developer.
