90 Managing Information Access to an EIS Using J2EE and Services Oriented Architecture
The business integration node is a Windows 2000 system where the following
products are installed:
WebSphere Business Integration Server Foundation Version 5.1.1
The JCA Resource Adapter that comes with IMS Connect Version 2.1
WebSphere MQ Version 5.3 with the CSD 07
4.4 DB2®
We also provide an example of connectivity through the WebSphere Business
Integration Adapter for JDBC. In our lab, we used IBM DB2 as example of an
EIS. You can find details about the implementation in Chapter 8, “Integration
using WebSphere Business Integration Adapters” on page 199.
If our example, there is no particular reason to use a WebSphere Business
Integration Adapter to access at the DB2. We have done so to give a complete
view on the connectivity capability of the WebSphere Business Integration
platform. Chapter 8, “Integration using WebSphere Business Integration
Adapters” on page 199 shows how to use the WebSphere Business Integration
Adapter to interact with DB2. From the developer point of view, DB2 can be
replaced with any EIS that is supported by the WebSphere Business Integration
Adapters, without changing anything in the operation.
The Stock Analysis system is composed of two nodes, the business integration
node and the back-end node, as shown in Figure 4-3.
