当使用传统的客户机-服务器技术时，创建和维护大型机构实体属性值（EAV）数据库的前端的任务可能很麻烦。切换到Web技术作为交付工具解决了其中的一些问题，但也引入了其他问题。特别是，Web开发环境往往是原始的，客户机-服务器开发人员认为理所当然的许多功能都没有。WebEAV是Web开发的通用框架，旨在简化具有重要EAV组件的数据库的Web应用程序开发过程。它还解决了创建任何复杂系统时出现的一些具有挑战性的用户界面问题。作者描述了WebEAV的体系结构，并提供了一个概述其功能与合适的例子。
The task of creating and maintaining a front end to a large institutional entity-attribute-value (EAV) database can be cumbersome when using traditional client-server technology. Switching to Web technology as a delivery vehicle solves some of these problems but introduces others. In particular, Web development environments tend to be primitive, and many features that client-server developers take for granted are missing. WebEAV is a generic framework for Web development that is intended to streamline the process of Web application development for databases having a significant EAV component. It also addresses some challenging user interface issues that arise when any complex system is created. The authors describe the architecture of WebEAV and provide an overview of its features with suitable examples.
