Abstract:
icFoundation is the core of a Web-based Electronic Commerce system. The icFoundation product provides a platform between corporate systems and e-commerce channels with common presentation and navigation, environment management, common standards, error management, auditing, and enhanced security features. One goal of icFoundation is to demonstrate enterprise value by combining three basic standards of Transaction Processing; Scalability, Reliability, and Security. icFoundation specifically takes full advantage of the Pentium class Processor running Windows NT. A single server may easily scale from 8 to 32 processors and multiple servers may be combined into a centralized or distributed architecture. icFoundation is tightly integrated with Microsoft™ Transaction Server (MTS). Integrating MTS into icFoundation provides the assurance that the integrity of data is maintained as it moves across the system. icFoundation uses Secure Sockets Layer technology in order to encrypt and protect data.
