<title>Introduction to ROP</title>

<title>What is ROP</title>
+ <para>"Remote Object Persistence" is a low-overhead web
services-based technology that
+ provides lightweight object persistence and query
functionality to 'remote'
+ applications. In other words it provides familiar
Cayenne API to applications that do
+ not have direct access to the database. Instead such
applications would access Cayenne
+ Web Service (CWS). A single abstract data model
(expressed as Cayenne XML DataMap) is
+ used on the server and on the client, while execution
logic can be partitioned between
+ the tiers.The following picture compares a regular
Cayenne web application and a rich
+ client application that uses remote object persistence
technology:</para>

+ <para>ORM Tier: a server-side Cayenne
Java application that directly connects to
+ the database via JDBC.</para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>CWS (Cayenne Web Service): A
wrapper around an ORM tier that makes it
+ accessible to remote CWS
clients.</para>
+ </listitem>
+ <listitem>
+ <para>Remote Tier (aka Client Tier): A
Java application that has no direct DB
+ connection and persists its
objects by connecting to remote Cayenne Web
+ Service (CWS). Note that CWS
Client doesn't have to be a desktop
+ application. It can be another
server-side application. The word "client"
+ means a client of Cayenne Web
Service.</para>
