The API consumes any function call through a common generic web service interface. Developers in any level can successfully make a web service call to the API after the training for 10 minutes. The API can be consumed by any programming language, system and platform by supporting three major protocals JSON, XML and SOAP.<br><br><b>JSON Protocol</b><br>The JSON protocol is ideal for an AJAX application, which submits requests from the end user’s browser and processes JSON responses. The JSON interface can return JSON responses in three different formats:<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Raw<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Callback<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; * Function<br><br><b>XML Protocol</b><br>If you are working on Silverlight/Flash, or any applications that support XML but do not support SOAP, the XML protocol may be an appropriate choice.

<P>Original article is copied below for your reference.</P>
<P>Knowledge management is a technique of efficient assembly, alteration, safekeeping as well as management of information within organizations, alongside systems created to make the most from that knowledge. It references particularly to tools and methods made to protect data and information compiled by individuals who make up the company. It is at once a software bazaar as well as a area of consultancy work related tofields such as competitive intelligence. A huge area of knowledge management has to do with knowledge that is not elementary to digitally codify, including individual experiences.</P>
<P>The procedure of knowledge management additionally is known by a few other terms in its different developmental processes. One example is ‘corporate learning’ and it possesses these basic aims: distinguishing, collecting and systematizing current knowledge and allowing the creation of new information. Knowledge management has endured since civilization began, being in the guise of discussions, brainstorming meetings or in more formal methods including apprenticeships and qualified teaching training programs.</P>
<P>However, it’s only today that knowledge management is becoming integrated as a legitimate business practice, and because of that it has seen the invoking of certain knowledge and information technology methods, the establishment of intranets within corporate settings and so forth. This all are a part of a compulsion to enact knowledge management systems.</P>
<P>Knowledge management systems comprise of a heavily circulated hypermedia method for the categorizing of knowledge, encouragement of creativity and the seizure, storing and giving away of that expertise and awareness. The word hypermedia is utilized to name a medium through which audio, video and text collide to make a lateral mode of data storage in addition to broadcasting. In other words, the phrase “hypermedia” might be utilized extension of the term ‘hypertext’.</P>
<P>For instance, the Web is an case in point of hypermedia, but the same cannot be said for of a movie on a Digital Video Disc. The Internet is utilized as a place where which global data is held, used and sent through computers which are attached to the World Wide Web. The net is a area that can be efficiently used to implement knowledge management systems effectively, just as the office intranet system can in addition be used. On it’s own, it is not a knowledge management system. Although, it can be utilized to keep and retrieve a knowledge management system. </P>

PrimeObjects platform supports multitenancy from UI all the way down to the data level, it makes our solution more secure, reliable, flexible, scalable and elastic.&nbsp; <br></p><p>

</p><h3>Concept</h3>
<p>Multitenancy refers to a principle in software architecture where a single instance of the software
 runs on a server, serving multiple client organizations (tenants). 
Multitenancy is contrasted with a multi-instance architecture where 
separate software instances (or hardware systems) are set up for 
different client organizations. With a multitenant architecture, a software application is designed to virtually <span class="mw-redirect">partition</span> its data and configuration, and each client organization works with a customized virtual application instance.</p>

<h3>Economics of Multitenancy</h3> 
The multitenancy architecture can be deployed by PrimeObjects Software Inc., PrimeObjects's ISVs and IT department of big sized customers who want to host their own multitenancy environment of PrimeObjects platform and business solutions.<br><br><b>Cost savings</b><br><br>Multitenancy allows for cost savings over and above the basic economies of scale achievable from consolidating IT resources into a single operation. An application instance usually incurs a certain amount of memory and processing overhead which can be substantial when multiplied by many customers, especially if the customers are small. Multitenancy reduces this overhead by amortizing it over many customers. Further cost savings may come from licensing costs of the underlying software (such as operating systems and database management systems). Put crudely, if you can run everything on a single software instance, you only have to buy one software license. The cost savings can be eclipsed by the difficulty of scaling the single instance (a bigger, faster server can only take one so far) as demand grows. In addition, development of multitenant systems is more complex, and security testing is more stringent.<br><br><b>Data aggregation/data mining</b><br><br>One of the most compelling reasons for vendors/ISVs to utilize multitenancy is for the inherent data aggregation benefits. Instead of collecting data from multiple data sources, with potentially different database schemas, all data for all customers is stored in a single database schema. Thus, running queries across customers, mining data, and looking for trends is much simpler. This reason is probably overhyped as one of the core multitenancy requirements is the need to prevent Service Provider access to customer (tenant) information. Further, it is common to separate the operational database from the mining database (usually because of different workload characteristics), thus weakening the argument even more. However for a big company who deploy multitenancy platform internally in their organization, they will for sure benefit from it without worrying about the concerns mentioned above.<br><br><b>Complexity</b><br><br>Because of the additional customization complexity and the need to maintain per-tenant metadata, multitenant applications require a larger development effort. But thanks to PrimeObjects Multitenancy Platform this kind of development effort has been reduced to minimum. <br><br><b>Release management</b><br><br>Multitenancy simplifies the release management process. In a traditional release management process, packages containing code and database changes are distributed to client desktop and/or server machines. These packages then have to be installed on each individual machine. With the multitenant model, the package typically only needs to be installed on a single server. This greatly simplifies the release management process.<br><br><br><br><br><br>]]></description><link>http://www.primeobjects.com/Blog/PrimeObjects/35314aa7-91fc-44e9-87c2-4a8636085204/Article/b3ce11f1-71c2-44ea-8f2c-27b70bd9e02b/PrimeObjects---Multitenancy-Platform-Architecture/default.blog.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">b3ce11f1-71c2-44ea-8f2c-27b70bd9e02b</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Feb 2009 16:03:17 GMT</pubDate><comments></comments><author>Gary Zhang</author></item></channel></rss>
