Private Process using TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks plug-in for BusinessConnect
With TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks Plug-in for BusinessConnect and TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks, you can create process definitions that serve as private processes for a TIBCO BusinessConnect Conatiner Edition. TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks can either send requests to TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition or receive replies from it.
The following figure illustrates TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks operating in conjunction with TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition.
Company A implements a private process in TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks and uses the Send Request/Notification activity to invoke a pre-configured B2B operation on a TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition server. TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition in Company A sends the request to TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition server at Company B, which has a process definition with the Receive Request/ Notification process starter.
This process definition receives the incoming request, processes it, and sends a response back to the TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition server using the Send Response activity. TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition then routes the reply back to the original requestor.
It is not necessary for TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks to be used to implement the private process at both Company A and Company B. A different application can be used to send the request or receive the request. However, it is necessary for TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition to be used at any site where TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks is used to send or receive TIBCO BusinessConnect Container Edition messages.
You can use TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks to build the private processes, specifically using the tool TIBCO Business Studio™.
