Chapter 8 Integrating With IBM WebSphere Application Server Version 5 : Overview of Integrating With IBM WebSphere

Overview of Integrating With IBM WebSphere
The IBM WebSphere Application Server has two message-driven bean samples that separately demonstrate publish-and-subscribe (topic-based) and point-to-point (queue based) messaging. Each of these sample applications includes a simple MDB and J2EE application client program. The examples illustrate how to trigger the MDB within the WebSphere Application Server using the external client program by way of the WebSphere embedded JMS provider.
This chapter is divided into the following sections:
Get the sample MDB running with the WebSphere Embedded JMS Provider — provides step-by-step instructions for running the sample MDBs using the WebSphere embedded JMS provider. This ensures that the MDBs are configured and deployed properly.
Get the Sample MDB running with TIBCO Enterprise Message Service — demonstrates how to reconfigure and run the same MDBs using TIBCO Enterprise Message Service as the JMS provider within WebSphere.
Porting the sample MDBs from WebSphere embedded JMS to TIBCO Enterprise Message Service does not require changing any of the MDB or application client source code. TIBCO Enterprise Message Service is simply added to WebSphere application server and client container as another JMS provider. Then, the sample applications are reconfigured for the new JMS provider resources and re-deployed.
Modify the Samples to Use SSL Communications — details how to modify the sample programs to use SSL as the communication protocol with TIBCO Enterprise Message Service.
The instructions in this section assume you have already downloaded and installed WebSphere Application Server Version 5.0 Trial (plus embedded messaging) on a Windows platform. The instructions also assume that TIBCO Enterprise Message Service and WebSphere Application Server are both running on the same machine.
