JCuba is the follow-up product of the successfully used device
framework CUBA in 100% pure Java technology. Based on the CEN
standard J/XFS JCuba allows access/control of banking peripheral
devices on a logical layer in various architectures such as Fat
Client, Client/Server environment, Citrix Meta-Frame (Thin Client),
Sun Ray from Sun Microsystems (Ultra Thin Client system) and J2EE.
Already many device types are supported by the extensive driver
collection of JCuba.
Functions
JCuba is a technical runtime
environment/framework for the access to banking peripheral devices
and services based on the CEN standard J/XFS. Beside the use of
JCuba own J/XFS device drivers it's also possible to integrate
existing J/XFS device drivers from other hardware companies.
Apart from standard
installations as well Java Web Start can be used for the software
distribution. Further it's possible to operate JCuba over Web
technology in safe/protected environments (DMZ, Firewall).
In order to arrange the
operation of the JCuba environment easier and more cost effective,
naturally various tools are available for administration and/or
monitoring too.
