WebSphere Application Server and WebSphere MQ Family Integration

This IBM Redbook will help you install, tailor and configure the new Embedded Messaging function in WebSphere Application Server V5. In addition, the IBM WebSphere MQ family products are reviewed and positioned with regard to Embedded Messaging.

Part 1, “Exploring messaging options” is an introduction to the different WebSphere products, including the WebSphere Application Server and the WebSphere MQ product family. This part also provides detailed instructions for preparing the installation of these products for the scenarios described in the book. You can also read about migration techniques when using earlier versions of MQSeries.

Part 2, “Example scenarios”, which is the vast majority of the book, covers the different integration scenarios using the WebSphere product family. These scenarios include WebSphere Application Server with embedded JMS messaging, with external MQ and JMS messaging, and with external generic messaging providers. Integration goes further than just product integration. It includes samples of using WebSphere MQ Integrator for integrating solutions.

The appendixes provide details on installing and configuring the sample application used for the scenarios in this book.
