Software

Overview

DFE is, at its core, an event handling system. Events occur and they are processed and the results returned. The events may come from a web site (internal or external) or the command line utility. Regardless of the source, all DFE Console API requests upon validation are inserted into the master job queue for processing. The Console has a user interface as well.

The diagram below shows the various data flows within the system and how they are processed.

The software architecture is split into multiple parts:

* Provisioning
* Jobs
* Handlers
* Access Paths
