Product Overview

You can use TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ Plug-in for BusinessConnect™ to receive messages from and send messages to TIBCO BusinessConnect™ servers.

Messages received from trading partners can be packaged into different types of formats based on the business-to-business (B2B) standard followed by the trading community. These messages are processed by TIBCO BusinessConnect, and converted into a canonicalized format, which are sent to enterprise back office systems. TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks Plug-in for BusinessConnect works as part of TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks™ processes to receive the canonicalized message from TIBCO BusinessConnect and forward it to the back office system.

TIBCO Rendezvous® or TIBCO Enterprise Message Service™ is used as the communication system between BusinessConnect and BusinessWorks processes, which plug TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks Plug-in for BusinessConnect.

TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks is a leading integration platform that can integrate a wide variety of technologies and systems within enterprise and on cloud. TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks includes an Eclipse-based graphical user interface (GUI) provided by TIBCO Business Studio™ for design, testing, and deployment.
