Building an Enterprise Service Bus Using WebSphere ESB, Part 2 - A JMS Messaging Example

Part 1 introduced key features that IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) provides for building an ESB, with a sample business context that one will use throughout this series, and explained the relationship between the SIBus feature of WebSphere Application Server and WebSphere ESB. Part 2 demonstrates how to connect a J2EE client application to the ESB by sending a message over JMS, having the ESB log the message, and then route it to the service provider, implemented by a Message-Driven Bean (MDB). Hence, this paper demonstrates ESB support for a JMS service requester and for a JMS service provider.
