Abstract
A data processing apparatus and method are capable of facilitating maintenance, such as debugging, provision of additional functions and the like, by adopting, as separate modules, a unit for fetching data from a database upon receipt of a request to output the data from a client, and a unit for producing the fetched data in a certain format.
Claims12
A data processing apparatus for web service, comprising:
- a storage unit for storing data for web service and format information for producing the data as a document having a page-based table format;
- a first processor responsive to a request to output the data from a client for producing the data as the document having the page-based table format by use of the format information stored in the storage unit, and for transmitting the document to the client;
- and
- a second processor for acquiring, from the storage unit, the data requested by the client and the format information for producing the data as the document having the page-based table format, and for providing the data and the format information to the first processor.
A data processing method for web service using a data processing module and an interface module, the method comprising the steps of:
- storing, in a database, data for web service and format information for producing the data as a document having a certain format;
- responding, at the data processing module, to a request from a client to output data by requesting acquisition, from the database, of the data and the format information for producing the data as the document having the certain format;
- acquiring, at the interface module, the data and the format information from the database, and providing the data and the format information to the data processing module, in response to the request for acquisition, from the database, of the data and the format information for producing the data as the document having the certain format;
- and
- producing, at the data processing module, the data as the document having the certain format by use of the format information, and transmitting the produced document to the client.
A data processing method for web service using a table-producing module and an interface module, the method comprising the steps of:
- storing, in a database, data for web service and format information for producing the data as a document having a page-based table format;
- responding, at the table-producing module, to a request from a client to output data by requesting acquisition, from the database, of the data and the format information for producing the data as the document having the page-based table format;
- responding to the request for acquisition, from the database, of the data and the format information for producing the data as the document having the page-based table format by acquiring, at the interface module, the data and the format information from the database, and providing the data and the format information to the table-producing module;
- and
- producing, at the table-producing module, the data as the document having the page-based table format by use of the format information, and transmitting the document to the client.
