Global Datastore

Global datastore is one more thing specially developed to simplify your ui-building, one more way 'to communicate' with server- and client-side backends. We can range it with the existed staff in this area: dhtmlxDataprocessor and dhtmlxConnector. For your clearer comprehension, let's remember these elements and compare them with GlobalStore.

  • dhtmlxDataprocessor
    monitors all data changes on client-side and saves them on server-side.
  • dhtmlxConnector
    'extracts' data from database and makes all the needed transformations.
  • GlobalStore
    stores and processes data, but just on client-side. The server-side is left 'unimpaired'.

Certainly, work with server you can't do without dhtmlxConnector and dhtmlxDataprocessor. But if you are going to deal just with client-side, we reccomend to use GlobalStore as a clearer and simplier method, particularly in the way of filtration: you link data stores and their filtration is performed automatically. It's especially useful in developing various online services contained different dependences and categories.
