Business objects are containers for application
data, such as a customer or an invoice. Data is exchanged between
components by way of business objects.
The
underlying structure of a business object is an XML schema definition
(XSD), and programmatic access to business objects is provided via
business object interfaces in WebSphere®.
Collectively, these aspects of the business object, its structural
representation, its programmatic interfaces, and its behavior and
manipulation within the service component architecture (SCA), are
the business object framework, which provides a powerful, consistent
means for describing and delivering business data in your solution.
