Application Server Processes

An Application Server process is a Progress session within the AppServer that executes 4GL procedures on behalf of AppServer clients. The Application Broker manages a pool of Application Server processes for an AppServer instance. Each Application Server process in the pool runs an identical set of 4GL procedures that share the same Progress resources. The Application Services that an AppServer supports are really aliases for the same set of remote procedures supported by all Application Server processes in the pool.

When you configure Application Server processes, you specify a single set of properties that apply in common to all processes in the pool. For more information on configuring Application Server processes, see the "Configuring AppServer Components" section.
