Glossary

Standard Template​

This refers to the standard template of exaBase Studio provided by ExaWizards. It is recommended to start with using the standard template.

Custom Template​

Customers can register their built applications as unique templates for their organization. This allows for the reuse of applications as custom templates within the organization.

Management Screen​

This is the necessary screen for building applications on exaBase Studio. An account registration for the management screen is required to access it.

Kubernetes​

Kubernetes (pronounced "kubernetis") is a popular open-source platform developed by Google for orchestrating container runtime systems across a cluster of network resources. It automates the deployment, management, and scaling of applications.

Docker​

An open-source platform that allows for the building, testing, deploying, running, updating, and managing of containerized applications using virtualization technologies.

Project​

A project refers to the canvas screen necessary for constructing a new application. By logging into the management screen, you can create a new project and build one application. Multiple projects can be created.

Canvas​

The canvas of exaBase Studio employs an intuitive design and development UI (user interface) that visualizes the processing. This allows for open design and easy updates involving both engineers and internal or external personnel who are well-versed in the business.

Circuit​

A Circuit refers to an executable program deployed on a server based on the design outlined in a Blueprint. Imagine a circuit created from a blueprint.

Constructor​

A service that automatically assembles executable programs ("Circuits") on computing resources based on the design outlined in a Blueprint.

Trigger​

A trigger defines the target entity, enabling constant monitoring and tracking of event states. When an event execution occurs for the entity, it can execute processes such as running a pipeline. This facilitates an event-driven architecture.

Entity​

An entity can hold information (references to data or files) input and output from endpoints. By storing the reference data that has been input and output, it can freely combine subsequent processing with functions, pipelines, triggers, etc.

Endpoint​

An endpoint allows you to configure a URI that can be accessed via a web browser when deploying an application built in exaBase Studio. (For example, it refers to the /test part of https://xxxx.xx/test.)

Pipeline​

A pipeline can define multiple functions, which are workflows for executing processes. The workflows set in the pipeline are executed in order from top to bottom. This allows for the execution of multiple functions, persistence of data through file input and output, and the detection of exceptional processing combined with functions, among other tasks.

Function​

A function is a workflow defined within a pipeline. Each function is composed of single entities and can set up and execute tasks such as data persistence via file input and output, and exception handling detection.

SideApp​

A SideApp can build containers running on Kubernetes as a single application. Therefore, it can combine with various components to integrate with applications.
