Introduction

The REQUEA Platform is based on Java, and therefore is extremely portable on a variety of environments.
It also uses standard protocols that make the integration into various systems easier.

In addition, the platform also takes advantage of the specificities of the Windows Stack, and in particular of the following Windows components:

• Run as a service on a Windows Server
• Use IIS as the front end HTTP server
• Use Microsoft Exchange as the EMail Server
• Authenticate users against Active Directory
• Take advantage of Single Sign on between Internet Explorer and IIS
• Use Microsoft SQL Server as the Database
• integrate with .NET and Windows Web Services using WSDL and SOAP
