PEAK is the "Python Enterprise Application Kit". If you develop "enterprise"
|
||
|
|
applications with Python, or indeed almost any sort of application with
|
||
|
|
Python, PEAK may help you do it faster, easier, on a larger scale, and with
|
||
|
|
fewer defects than ever before. The key is component-based development, on a
|
||
|
|
reliable infrastructure.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PEAK is an application kit, and applications are made from components. PEAK
|
||
|
|
provides you with a component architecture, component infrastructure, and
|
||
|
|
various general-purpose components and component frameworks for building
|
||
|
|
applications. As with J2EE, the idea is to let you stop reinventing
|
||
|
|
architectural and infrastructure wheels, so you can put more time into your
|
||
|
|
actual application.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
But PEAK is different from J2EE: it's a single, free implementation of
|
||
|
|
simpler API's based on an easier-to-use language that can nonetheless scale
|
||
|
|
with better performance than J2EE.
