Creating and Configuring Web Service Providers and Consumers for (SAP Library - Developing Applications Using Java) Brokered Communication

Creating and Configuring Web Service Providers and Consumers for Brokered Communication

Use

When you have created a Service Interface (SI) in the Enterprise Services Repository (ESR), you can create and configure Java Web service providers and Web service consumers, which use the Integration Server (IS) as a broker as shown in the figure below.

This graphic is explained in the accompanying text

Brokered Communication

Depending on your needs, the Java Web service providers and consumers can communicate with the IS over the Web service (WS) protocol by using any of the following adapters:

● SOAP SAP BASIS 7.10 adapter

Use the SOAP adapter when the Java Web service provider or consumer needs to have synchronous communication with the Integration Server.

● WS SAP BASIS 7.10 adapter

Use the WSRM adapter when the Java Web service provider or consumer needs to have asynchronous communication with the Integration Server.

Note

Java Web service providers and consumers for which Web service reliable messaging (WS-RM) has been enabled can communication with the IS only using the WSRM adapter.

Prerequisites

The Service Interface is available in the ESR.

Procedure

● Create and configure a synchronous Java Web service provider for brokered communication.

In this case, the IS can be viewed as a service consumer. More information about creating and configuring a synchronous Java Web service provider: Creating and Configuring Synchronous Web Service Providers for Brokered Communication.

● Create and configure an asynchronous Java Web service provider for brokered communication.

In this case, the IS can be viewed as a service consumer. More information about creating and configuring an asynchronous Java Web service provider: Creating and Configuring Asynchronous Web Service Providers for Brokered Communication.

● Create and configure a synchronous Java Web service consumer for brokered communication.

In this case, the IS can be viewed as a service provider. More information about creating and configuring an outbound proxy: Creating and Configuring Synchronous Web Service Consumers for Brokered Communication.

● Create and configure an asynchronous Java Web service consumer for brokered communication.

In this case, the IS can be viewed as a service provider. More information about creating and configuring an outbound proxy: Creating and Configuring Asynchronous Web Service Consumers for Brokered Communication.
