Abstract:
A multi-tier platform provides security at a perimeter of a computer system, where an intermediate layer interacts between a web layer and an application layer. A data request that is associated with a data set is received at the web layer and passed to the intermediate layer. The intermediate layer determines the authoritative source for the data set and whether the data set has a static or dynamic value. If the value is static, the intermediate layer accesses the value stored at the intermediate layer. However, if the value is dynamic, the intermediate layer queries the source registered to the data set, obtains the value from the authoritative source, and returns the dynamic value via the web layer, where the registered source may be internal or external to the computer system. Consequently, the intermediate layer may function as an aggregate layer that supports both database and messaging services.

Claim (Index 1):
An apparatus for supporting an intermediate layer comprising:\n a processing device; a memory device; a storage subsystem; a first communication interface configured to communicate with a plurality of sources of data, wherein the plurality of sources comprises first, second, and third sources; a second communication interface interconnected with a web layer; an intermediate layer module stored in the memory device, executable by the processor, wherein the intermediate layer module supports an intermediate layer that interacts with the web layer, the intermediate layer module configured to cause the processor to:\n receive a data request through the second communication interface for requested data through the web layer, wherein the requested data comprises a first data component and wherein the first source is registered for the first data component; \n when the first data component comprises dynamic data,\n generate a first message to the first source via the first communication interface to access the first data component, wherein the first source comprises an external source of an external service provider and wherein the apparatus interacts with the external service provider via the first communication interface without interacting with the web layer; and \n receive a first response with the first data component from the first source via the first communication interface; and \n \n return the requested data to the web layer via the second communication interface.
