BusinessConnect Server Components

TIBCO BusinessConnect server is internally divided in two components:

1. DMZ (De-Militarized Zone)

This component sits in the de-militarized zone and can have several restrictions on the networks it can access.

The DMZ component receives B2B communications directly from the Internet and performs SSL validation. By placing a firewall between the DMZ and the rest of your system, you can protect against the threat of malicious communications.

2. Interior Engine

This component performs the following tasks:

(i) Handles all messaging level activities such as encryption, decryption, and digital signatures.

(ii) Takes care of business level logic to be executed by an individual protocol, such as document schema validation.

Any deployment configuration change should trigger redeployment of both server components.
