00-Term Explanation

A business can consist of several services and paths. Services can be fully customized by the user and added to custom service groups; alternatively, service groups can be set up to automatically generate services within the group, corresponding to auto-grouped service groups. Paths are defined by specifying the access relationships of services. The following explains the above diagram:

  • Business: Mobile Banking Business
  • Services:
    • Independent services not added to any group: Frontend Load Service
    • Added to custom service group, Frontend Service Group: Operations Frontend Service, Financial Frontend Service
    • Services generated by auto-grouped service group, Midend Service Group: Rights Center Service, Search Center Service, Average Center Service, Payment Center Service
  • Paths:
    • Custom: Frontend Load Service -> Operations Frontend Service; Frontend Load Service -> Financial Frontend Service; Operations Frontend Service -> Midend Service Group (auto-grouped); Financial Frontend Service -> Midend Service Group (auto-grouped)
    • Auto-generated: Access relationships between services within the Midend Service Group (auto-grouped)
