Binding

Bindings, which are well known external communication gateways, establish connections between Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) services and their consumers.

The two types of binding components are:
  • Service Binding: used to create and expose a service to the external world. The service can contain one or more operations. Once exposed, clients can consume the service.
  • Reference Binding: used to create a client that can connect and communicate to an external service.

TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ supports REST as well as SOAP bindings.

For more information about REST bindings, see the TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ REST Reference guide.

  • SOAP Binding
    Use SOAP binding to create service providers and service consumers. TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ 6.x supports SOAP 1.1 and SOAP 1.2 protocols. These messages can either use HTTP or JMS for communication.
