<h1>Introduction</h1>
</div>
<p>UBF is a framework that permits Erlang and the outside world to talk
with each other. The documentation and the corresponding open-source
code repositories are based on Joe Armstrong’s original UBF site and
code with an MIT license file added to the distribution. Since then,
a large number of enhancements and improvements have been added.</p>
<p>UBF is a language for transporting and describing complex data
structures across a network. It has three components:</p>
<ul>
<li>
UBF(a) is a "language neutral" data transport format, roughly
equivalent to well-formed XML.
</li>
<li>
UBF(b) is a programming langauge for describing types in UBF(a) and
protocols between clients and servers. This layer is typically
called the "protocol contract". UBF(b) is roughly equivalent to
Verified XML, XML-schemas, SOAP and WDSL.
</li>
<li>
UBF(c) is a meta-level protocol used between a UBF client and a UBF
server.
</li>
</ul>
<p><small>UBF is intended for production deployment and is deployed in
"24x7x365" carrier-grade systems.</small></p>

<p>The <a href="http://github.com/ubf/ubf">UBF GitHub README</a> is a good first
step to get started quickly. Check the download, build, and install
instructions.</p>
<p>Reading the <a href="ubf-user-guide.en.html">UBF 2.2 User’s Guide</a> is
<small>STRONGLY</small> recommended.</p>
