GTM Architecture
GTM is built on the multi-tier architecture with the following servers: Web server, Application server, Database
server and Integration server.
GTM Architecture
• The Web Server controls the user interface and communicates with the application server to initiate
the appropriate application logic.

• The Application Server controls the application logic and communicates that logic between the Web
Server and the Oracle Database. The business logic is executed in the Application Server rather
than in the client applications.

• The Database Server is the central repository for all the data entered in GTM. The Database Server
communicates with the Application Server to send and receive the appropriate data to the user
based on the GTM application logic.
Domains
• Domains are GTM ways of segregating client data within the database
• It can be used to segregate data between business units.
• Domains share database tables but they own the rows
• Only a user with the DBA.ADMIN role can create
domains. Public
• GTM supports a parent and child structure.
• The GTM Domain structure should be created based Domain1 Domain2
on the business's organization requirements.

Property Sets
• Oracle provisions GTM with default properties for global use which are set in the server level files.
• GTM provides options to customize the behavior of an application by changing properties in the PUBLIC domain.
• A property set is a collection of ordered property instructions stored in the database.
• Oracle provides the below property sets:
• APP_CUSTOM - This holds custom application server properties
• WEB_CUSTOM - This holds custom web server properties
• CUSTOM - This holds custom properties shared by the web server and application server

• All custom properties should be set in the CUSTOM property set unless directed by Oracle.
Property Sets
Configuration and Administration > Property Management > Property Sets
Search for CUSTOM property set
SQL Servlet
The SQL Servlet can be accessed by using the following URL:
http://otmgtm643.accelalpha.com:7779/GC3/glog.webserver.sql.SqlServlet
Note: Update or Delete statements can’t be performed using the SQLServlet in Cloud
BI Server
The BI Publisher can be accessed by sing the following URL:
http://otmgtm643.accelalpha.com:7779/xmlpserver

GTM Data Dictionary
The GTM Data Dictionary can be accesed using the following URL:
http://otmgtm643.accelalpha.com:7779/GC3/html/data_dict/

can use to check database tables, column names and foreign
key relationship between the tables.

• The logical relationship between the GTM database tables is

described in the GTM Data Dictionary. It displays the list of
tables in the left pane.

• Columns of selected tables is displayed in the right pane.

• The keyword ‘FK’ indicates foreign key .

6.4.2 vs 6.4.3 (Technical Changes)
• Starting 6.4.3 User Interface and Business Logic components of the architecture are consolidated into a single WebLogic instance
referred to as the Application-tier. Which means there is no need for a separate webserver.
• A new Scalability Architecture has been implemented with 6.4.3 which departs significantly from the previous release. The new
scalability architecture reduces complexity and promotes better utilization of hardware resources.
• As part of 6.4.3 release all OTM/GTM Database schemas are going to be enabled with the database feature Edition Based
Redefinitions. This is necessary to provide future support for zero downtime patching. This will have significant impact during
upgrade specifically if there are any custom view, trigger, package, procedure, function etc. implemented in the current OTM/GTM
Schemas
• Springboard Maintain State allows you to return to your last point of navigation on the springboard
• Workbench Layouts are now included in the promote to production migration projects.
• Workbench User Access type controls the workbench layouts that a user has access to
• Workbench refresh workbench automatically after UI action is completed
• Additional GTM Objects are now supported in the workbench (Contact, Party, Party Matched Restricted Party, Product
Classification Code, Restricted Party, Bond)
• Workbench inline editing of Date Fields
