1—2 Chapter 1: Introducing The Sausalito Architecture Beta Draft 11. Copyright ' 2001. Cobalt Networks, Inc. All Rights Reserved. Audience Cobalt recognized from the start that the user interface and underlying software architecture for these Web appliances must be designed specifically for this task. Cobalt has worked with leading network providers, including several of the world s leading ISPs and network service providers, to appliantize their Web services. Their requirements are at the center of Cobalt’s second-generation software architecture, named Sausalito, which is described in this developer guide. Sausalito is specifically designed for delivery of services through the web model. This model allows services, hosted on the appliance, to deliver content to many users simultaneously through a graphical user interface. Sausalito is designed to provide a superb developer platform, with the following goals in mind. • Provide an extensible architecture enabling third-party developers to customize, modularize, and implement services quickly. Sausalito interfaces are documented in this guide, including tools for tuning the user interface and interfacing with the built-in configuration database. The user interface also includes such features as a software update indicator and single-button install and delete capabilities. • Provide an easy to understand environment for non-technical users. Sausalito masks the complexity of its underlying software and is intended to provide the framework for maintenance-free services. • Use open standards for quick development time and strong security. Sausalito is designed to run on top of Linux and, in addition to its own interfaces, uses a number of standard services and interfaces like Apache and LDAP. • Provide flexibility to localize User interfaces into multiple languages quickly. Sausalito includes a language library for all localized data. The audience for this document includes developers who create hardware or software applications that run on Sausalito, Value Added Resellers, and others who want to customize Sausalito-based systems to fit their requirements.
