TWSS provides a JCA adapter architecture with which you
can achieve a pluggable component architecture for managing connections
with a network entity (or with an SMSC when you are using the SMPP
protocol). The JCA adapter is based on version 3.4 of the SMPP protocol.
The following are features and benefits of the isolated JCA adapter:
- The Web service implementation layer can be reused with any JCA
adapter (based on native protocols like SMPP, CMPP, and UCP) that
adheres to JCA 1.5 specification. The Web service implementation layer
targets the following TWSS Web service implementations: Parlay X SMS over SMPP and WAP Push over SMPP.
- The SMPP JCA adapter is pluggable to any Web service implementation
layer that is developed based on the Parlay X 2.1 specification for
the SMS Web service or based on any specification that provides similar
operations (for example Parlay X 2.1 SMS) and that can be mapped to
native protocols like SMPP, CMPP and UCP.
- Using public APIs, you can develop custom JCA adapters
for native protocols like CMPP and UCP.
