Abstract
A World Wide Web browser makes requests to web servers on a network which receive and fulfill requests as an agent of the browser client, organizing distributed sub-agents as distributed integration solution (DIS) servers on an intranet network supporting the web server which also has an access agent servers accessible over the Internet. DIS servers execute selected capsule objects which perform programmable functions upon a received command from a web server control program agent for retrieving, from a database gateway coupled to a plurality of database resources upon a single request made from a Hypertext document, requested information from multiple data bases located at different types of databases geographically dispersed, performing calculations, formatting, and other services prior to reporting to the web browser or to other locations, in a selected format, as in a display, fax, printer, and to customer installations or to TV video subscribers, with account tracking. Intrepretive language based programs or applets are downloaded from the web server to the client and executed on the client machine for online analytical processing from a web browser. The Web client accesses a web server and downloads HTML and a Java applet(s). This enables use of multiple databases of different types using a single request from a client for Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) from a web browser.
