Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Application Interface Specification (AIS) is a collection of open specifications that define application programming interfaces (API) of the most required common functionality for building high availability applications. It is developed and published by the Service Availability Forum (SA Forum) and made freely available to the public. Besides reducing the complexity and shortening the application development time, the main purpose of the specifications is to ease the portability of applications between different middleware implementations and to admit third party developers to a field that was highly proprietary in the past.
