Techniques for providing services and establishing processing environments
First Claim
1. A method for establishing a processing environment, comprising:
- configuring a processing container on one or more processing devices;
configuring one or more processing groups within the processing container, each processing group having a unique context;
loading one or more applications within each processing group'"'"'s context; and
establishing a processing environment having the one or more applications processing within their respective processing group'"'"'s context and within the container.

Abstract
Techniques are provided for the delivery of client services and for the establishment of client processing environments. A client receives services within a processing environment which is defined by a processing container. The processing container includes one or more processing groups, and each processing group has a particular context that supports one or more applications or services which are processing within that context. The processing groups communicate with one another via connector interfaces included within the processing container. Services and processing containers can be dynamically added or removed from the processing container.

8. A method for providing a service to client, comprising:
-
receiving a request to add a service from a client;
identifying a connector interface for the service, that interfaces the service to other connector interfaces within a processing container, wherein the other connector interfaces are associated with other services available within the processing container;
loading the service and its connector interface into the processing container; and
providing the service to the client. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

28. Configuration information residing in a machine readable medium, for defining a processing environment, comprising:
-
a processing container definition;
processing group definitions; and
connector interface definitions, wherein the processing container definition provides a configuration for a processing environment of a processing container, the processing container having a plurality of processing groups and each processing group'"'"'s context defined by one of the processing group definitions, and wherein each processing group includes one or more connector interfaces defined by the connector interface definitions, and wherein the connector interfaces permit communications between different ones of the processing groups. - View Dependent Claims (29, 30, 31, 32)
