HI all,

i am new to Biztalk,i am actually a SAP XI consultant.in our company we have small requirement on BizTalk which i am dealing rt now.for this i have installed and did some sample scenarios to just to get an idea on biztalk.

Actually we have situation in our company,we have our own Workflow framework which is built on struts,so now we r trying to integrate with BIzTalk.from our framework we get a request as JMS queue and get the reply back to the framework again.the target system is oracle database.(synchronous scenario).we want to use jms adapter(will it be possible)?


can anybody give some suggestions on this would be much appreciated?
if anybody have a similar situation plz do share.

thanks heaps in advance

regards

Kishore,

If you need to interact with oracle, you might find the Oracle adapter included in the BizTalk 2006 Enterprise Adapters package useful (included with the biztalk license). For JMS, there isn't a native, built-in adapter; though there are some from third parties you might find useful:

We do integrate with a Java app, however it is through an MQ Series Queue. We use the Microsoft MQ Series adapter for this interaction to pull/send messages from/to this queue.

We also have used some of TopXML's adapter's (POP3/Oracle) but not the JMS adapter. Their adapters seem to be decent.

It depends on your scenario. For us, we have Java Code that will populate an MQ Series Queue with messages. BizTalk will use the MQ Series adapter to retrieve these messages. From there we feed SAP via the SAP Adapter. I didn't write the Java code to deal with MQ Series, but it is not that difficult to put/get messages to/from the queue. In the other direction, BizTalk will feed this MQ Series Queue and the Java code will connect and retrieve messages from the queue.

We are talking about using a Web Service instead just so we can retire the MQ Series servers. You may want to evalute this option as well.
