Jxta-based Enterprise Collaborative Business Platform Study

Collaborative e-business should be the trend of e-business model. It is the advanced phase of development of e-business. The complex interaction and collaboration inside or outside it require a powerful network platform as support.P2P network is a network platform that has powerful computing ability, and can provide with various services, and can support various interactions, it also open and can deal with heterogeneous and distributed resources. P2P not only leads Web computing from a concentrated mode to a distributed mode, but also enables Web application center to move from central servers to user terminals which distributed on the edge of the internet. Using P2P technology can largely improve the integration and collaborative efficiency of collaborative e-business. JXTA is a common distributed computing platform that supports P2P computing. Systems upon JXTA have more concentrated on their resilient architecture and less on the common communication protocols.According to the development of e-business now, this paper analyzes how to use P2P technology in e-business to achieve the integrated model of collaborative e-business.We first introduced the collaborative e-business and the background, essential technologies and application trends of the P2P network. Then we explore the system architecture of JXTA and the JXTA protocol. It brings forward one kind of the collaborative e-business application platform model based on JXTA technology. Then we fully analyze, design the mode and also discuss the pivotal technology in the system developing, such as workflow system, security model and Enterprise Application Integration. The conclusion is that the collaborative e-business platform based on JXTA combines the merits of P2P and traditional server model. It has a good application foreground in collaborative e-business.
