Application Server

Mediation modules must be deployed on a WebSphere ESB-enabled application server.

Requester and provider applications can run on the same, or any Java- or J2EE-based application server that supports Web services, .Net and so on. They can even run on the same application server as the mediation module.

The server can be administered using the browser-based WebSphere administrative console, the command line or scripts.

WebSphere ESB offers JMS messaging and best-in-class interoperability with other WebSphere MQ and Broker products. It also provides a comprehensive clients package for connectivity to C, C++, .Net Messaging and C, C++ Web service clients.

Its SCA programming model enables ease of use, while Web Services support allows you to incorporate leading-edge capabilities.

WebSphere ESB is built on top of WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment and inherits its qualities of service, its world class clustering, failover, scalability, and security.

It also includes a number of key features, including UDDI as a services registry, the Web services Gateway, Tivoli Access Manager, DB2, and Edge Components.
