PAH overview

Planning Application Host (PAH) is a platform used to host one or more applications called licensed modules. You can perform these tasks with the PAH framework:

• Install and execute multiple instances of a module on the same machine

  PAH architecture provides the initial framework for a .NET smart client application, which can contain multiple planning modules and be made available as one common planning suite. An example is PAH with Infor Fashion PLM and Multi-User Administration Module (MUA). Another example is PAH with ARP and Single User Modules.

• Automate, to a certain extent, the maintenance of the database

  As applications, licensed modules need the support of a database to function. To address this need, PAH enables you to create and manage database versions of each licensed module. This function is conceptually similar to creating application versions.

• Work with several copies or versions of a database

  PAH enables users to work with several database versions and to copy a version as a new version. Using the Version Manager features, PAH can create, upgrade, and copy databases for each application it hosts.
