Technology architecture

The architecture of eLoans Consumer Finance Solution system is based on the 3-tier architectural model:

• The first tier is the User Interface (UI), consisting of the rich-client graphical UI for the internal users and the thin-client (browser) graphical UI for the external partners
• The second tier is the Business Layer, consisting of the application server which handles the execution of the business processes. This tier also contains the web server, responsible for interacting with the web browsers of the external partners.
• The third tier is the Database Layer, which comprises the Host database server, responsible for processing on-line transactions, and the Business Intelligence server, containing the Data Warehouse and the On-Line Analytical Processing engine.

The eLoans Consumer Finance Solution system is based exclusively on Microsoft technologies, and more specifically on the Windows 2000-2003 operating system and the SQL Server 2000-2005 database server. Previous installations of eLoans Consumer Finance Solution as well as reports and case studies regarding the usage of this operating system and database server have shown that this platform offers the stability and flexibility required for an application suite such as eLoans.
