Currently RMDX consists of three main components:
• the RMDX Frontend which is served from an Apache HTTPD Server rendering PHTML (HTML with embedded PHP)
• the RMDX Backend which runs on PHP, containing the business logic of RMDX
• the RMDX MD Workbench Servers (provided by Sodius), running on Tomcat providing conversion services and tool connectors.

MD Workbench Server basically offers 4 interfaces for:
• Launching an (asynchronous) job
• Getting the status of the asynchronous jobs
• Downloading / Uploading artefacts (input / output files of jobs or requests)
• Executing synchronous requests

Next steps
A smart load balancer / monitoring component, that offers the following features:
• Offers the same interface as MD Workbench Server
• Distributes jobs to different MD Workbench Servers
• Establishes “sticky sessions” for synchronous requests, distributes the sessions evenly
• Actively monitors the job status of all running jobs
• Sends out events through an eventbus interface under the conditions: a job is started, regular progress update events, a job is finished
• Through a monitoring interface it shall provide the following functionality: Activating / deactivating an MD Workbench Server instance (i.e. taking it out of the job / request scheduling)
