JSLEE

Java Service Logic Execution Environment (JSLEE)

A Service Logic Execution Environment (SLEE) is a well known concept in the telecommunications industry. A SLEE is a high throughput, low latency event processing application environment. JSLEE is the Java standard for SLEE.

JSLEE is designed to allow implementations of the standard to meet the stringent requirements of communications applications, such as network signaling applications. The JSLEE specification is designed so that implementations can achieve scalability and availability through clustering architectures.

JSLEE is an industry standard aimed at portable communications applications, i.e. a communications application can be written once and run on many different implementations of JSLEE. Application portability is made possible by the combination of a programming language API (specified using the Java programming language), an unambiguous technical specification, a Reference Implementation, and a rigorous suite of tests that a vendor must pass before their product is compliant with the JSLEE specification.

JSLEE is the point of integration for multiple network resources and protocols. Applications can use many different external network resources from within the JSLEE environment.

The JSLEE specification allows developers to write robust components as integrates the ACID properties of transactions into the programming model. Components can be composed to solve more complex problems.

JSLEE is also known as JAIN SLEE due to its initial origination under the JAIN [http://java.sun.com/products/jain program] .
