Server Transformation Components
NonStop DTE offers a variety of execution methods. You can select one of the following servers:
♦ Command Server – The Command Server executes a single map with all of the data available at
one point in time and exits. The adapters specified in the map direct input and output. Those
adapters can be overridden using the command line parameters.

♦ Tuxedo Transformation Server – The Tuxedo Transformation Server executes a single map each
time that it is called. The Tuxedo Server can execute maps without use of external adapters; that is,
the Tuxedo Server can execute maps by using the memory adapter only). Input can be passed in the
Tuxedo request and output can be returned in the response.

Alternatively, the output of a map handled by a Tuxedo Server can be directed through an adapter. This
output can be directed to a Tuxedo Queue, for example, by using the Tuxedo adapter. (See the following
figure.)
