Architecture

The adopted software architecture uses free softwares known to be efficient, rock-solid, easy to use, multiplatform :

• Apache web server;
• Php to interact with users;
• Mysql to store datas.

The components motorized by the Nirawari engine are definitions stored in databases

• Menus;
• Screens;
• Zones;
• Actions.

This approch enables :

• Global look and feel;
• Immediate changes in a component's behaviour;
• Modifications without a line of code;
• Distributed storage, use of Mysql's replication mechanisms;
• Complete localized vocabulary for a component;
• XML export and import of components;
• Easy integration of third parties products
  • phpMyAdmin
  • Webmail
  • etc.
