Greensboro Auto Auction
Greensboro Auto Auction, Inc. is one of the largest and most successful independent auto auctions in the southeast.
comIT is developing an application to enable Greensboro to share data with a business partner. The application is written in Java and deployed on an IBM iSeries server. The data, which is formatted in XML, is parsed into Java objects and persisted in the iSeries database.
The application also monitors the same database for information that needs to be delivered to the business partner. That information is collected, formatted as XML and made available for delivery to the business partner.
Major technologies used:
- Java 1.4
- dom4j - an open source library for processing XML documents
- Hibernate - an object/relational persistence and query service for Java
- JTOpen - an Open Source version of the IBM Toolbox for Java
- Apache Commons - various utilities including email support
- Apache log4j - another Apache project for managing log files
- Apache Ant - an Apache Java-based build tool
