Introduction to Creo Elements/Direct Manager Services
The Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager provides an infrastructure for robust backend services. Backend services perform tasks like sending e-mail notifications, generating jobs, and executing jobs.
A job may include retrieving information from the manager server (database), generating PDF, or schedule a task.
The service infrastructure consists of the following:
• A master service or the service controller (Web Services Server before CoCreate 2008) – Launches and monitors all the worker services.
• Several worker services or Model Manager clients – Includes the Transaction Listener Processor to send e-mail notifications the Job Schedule Processor and the Clash Processor to execute generate and execute a task. The Creo Elements/Direct Model Manager Web Services are also a part of the worker services.
