Abstract

This paper discusses how the Encina® family of distributed transaction processing software can be used to build reliable, distributed applications. We start with the toolkit components of Encina and how they are used for implementing ACID properties. We then consider how the toolkit can be applied in building higher level components in a DCE environment. We conclude with a discussion of the Encina Monitor, which provides a framework for organizing a collection of machines and servers.
