Run-time Process
At run-time, a three-part process occurs:
* *1) End user calls JSP => 2 operations in parallel

• JSP file is transformed into HTML and the Cherokee Client Services is downloaded (>200K) (=browser plug-in like Macromedia Flash)
• Cherokee Business Engine is started.
• *2) Cherokee session is established between the Cherokee Client Services and the Cherokee Business Engine (ifweb70.exe) identified by a session-cookie.
• *3) Cherokee Layout Containers are displayed. All messages are going between the client and server go through the Cherokee Servlet.

Summary

Cherokee uses a 3-tier architecture, with Cherokee services on middle tier utilizing Oracle9iAS components.

Cherokee Services consists of:

-Cherokee Servlet
-Cherokee Business Engine
-Cherokee Client Services

Sessions are managed through a cookie to ensure that a client uses the same Servlet instance throughout its Cherokee session.
