This IBM® Redbooks® publication points out the key features that make WebSphere® Message Broker a powerful choice as an enterprise service bus (ESB) solution in a service-oriented architecture (SOA) environment. In this book, we illustrate the interoperability between the WebSphere Message Broker and the applications in the SOA environment. We use realistic examples to show the ESB capabilities of WebSphere Message Broker. We also show how to integrate WebSphere Message Broker with a variety of enterprise applications, which include WebSphere Process Server and ESB systems including SAP and Siebel, WebSphere Business Monitor, and WebSphere Service Registry and Repository. We wrote this book for architects who are planning an SOA solution and application designers who are implementing an SOA solution with WebSphere Process Server and WebSphere Message Broker.

IBM WebSphere® Message Broker is a lightweight, advanced enterprise service bus (ESB) that provides a broad range of integration capabilities that enable companies to rapidly integrate internal applications and connect to partner applications. Messages from business applications can be transformed, augmented and routed to other business applications. The types and complexity of the integration required will vary by company, application types, and a number of other factors. Processing logic in WebSphere Message Broker is implemented using message flows. Through message flows, messages from business applications can be transformed, augmented, and routed to other business applications. Message flows are created by connecting nodes together. A wide selection of built-in nodes are provided with WebSphere Message Broker. These nodes perform tasks that are associated with message routing, transformation, and enrichment. Message flows are created and tested using the Message Broker Toolkit, a sophisticated, easy-to-use programming tool that provides a full range of programming aids. This IBM® Redbooks® publication focuses on two specific integration requirements that apply to many midmarket companies. The first is the ability to use WebSphere Message Broker to integrate Microsoft.NET applications into a broader connectivity solution. WebSphere Message Broker V8 introduces the ability to integrate with existing Microsoft .NET Framework applications. A .NET assembly can be called from within a message flow and the WebSphere Message Broker runtime can host and run .NET code. Solutions explored in this book cover connectivity to applications using Windows Communications Framework (WCF), Microsoft Message Queuing, Microsoft Dynamics CRM, and other Microsoft applications. The second is the ability to integrate WebSphere Message Broker with file transfer networks, specifically with WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition and IBM Sterling Connect Direct.

IBM® WebSphere® Process Server is a business integration server that was built to support solutions that are based on the service-oriented architecture (SOA). It plays a key role in the architecture of the IBM SOA Foundation by providing functionality for process services. Another key component of the architecture is the enterprise service bus (ESB). IBM provides three key ESB products: IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, WebSphere Message Broker, and the WebSphere DataPower Integration Appliance XI50.

This IBM Redbooks publication is designed for IT architects and IT specialists that are dealing with IBM WebSphere Message Broker and IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) solutions. This book illustrates how to configure an ESB using either IBM WebSphere Message Broker V6 for IBM z/OS or IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus V6. It makes various traditional z/OS transactions and data available as a Web service through the broker, including IBM DB2 data, batch programs, and IBM CICS/IMS transactions. In this book, there is more focus on WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus installation and customization than on WebSphere Message Broker because the latter has already been documented in other places. This book describes multiple scenarios that show how to integrate applications using a mix of MQ and SOAP protocols using both Advanced ESB, also known as WebSphere Message Broker, and WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus. High availability using clustering of brokers in multiple logical partitions (LPARs) on z/OS is also addressed in this book, with details on which feature you can use and configure to improve continuous operation, such as shared queues, shared ports, and Sysplex Distributor. Please note that the additional material referenced in the text is not available from IBM.
