== SPI: Service Provider Interface ==
The SPI (Service Provider Interface) defines an abstraction layer between the core APOC components, such as the Desktop Agent and the Desktop Manager, and a pluggable configuration backend. It supports navigation and search for entities (organizations, users, roles, domains and hosts) within a given organization structure. It also provides an interface for assigning, retrieving and editing of configuration data (profiles) for the various entity types and supports merging of different profiles into a resulting configuration set for a specific host/user combination.

The SPI can interact with a variety of configuration data repositories. These include any LDAPv3 compilant server and any file based repository accessible via file, http or https url.

The Desktop Agent is a daemon that runs on the client side. Its responsibility is to provide access to configuration data stored in the centralized repository. To do this effectively, it maintains a locally cached version of the relevant data. This cached data is retrieved using the SPI and is refreshed periodically.

The Desktop Manager is a web based administration tool supporting the creation and deployment of configuration profiles. It provides a navigational view of the organization hierarchy into which configuration profiles are deployed. The SPI is used for all interaction with the relevant configuration repository. The Desktop Manager is a Java based web application intended for deployment into the Java Web Console.
