Use

The following improvements have been made in the Integration Engine:

·        Multi-message bulking between the Integration Engine and the Adapter Engine

By using the new multi-message bulking option in a 1:n split of the message payload, you can drastically reduce resource consumption and increase performance. The only prerequisite is that all individual messages are sent to the same Adapter Engine.

In multi-message bulking, a mapping-based message split creates n individual messages. These messages are not persisted individually but instead are grouped together immediately in one bulk message. The bulk message is then sent to the Adapter Engine just like a normal XI message, thus simplifying message transfer. The Adapter Engine then splits the bulk message up into the individual messages and persists them.

·        Monitor for messages from multi-message bulking

The report SXMS_MMF_MONITOR can be used to display the bulk messages and the corresponding individual messages. You can either display all bulk messages for a particular time period, or enter a specific message ID and display the corresponding parent and child messages. You can navigate from the list of displayed messages to the monitor for processed messages.
