FAQQuestions
What is the BIAN “Operate” functional pattern?
An Operate service domain keeps a piece of operational or technical capability running day to day. Point Of Service applies it to the POS Session.
What is a BIAN service domain?
BIAN (the Banking Industry Architecture Network) decomposes a bank into independent service domains, each owning exactly one business capability. Point Of Service is the service domain for Channels; it manages the POS Session Operating Session and exposes it through standard BIAN action terms.
What business area does Point Of Service belong to?
Point Of Service sits in the Sales and Service business area — the customer-facing sales, servicing and channel domains that run the customer lifecycle. It runs in the bian-sales-service namespace as one independent Spring Boot microservice.
Is Point Of Service production-ready?
It is an educational reference implementation: a real BIAN REST API over an in-memory store, ready to be filled with domain logic. It is not a live bank and is not affiliated with BIAN.
