J2EE Connector Architecture resource adapters
A J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA) resource adapter is any resource adapter conforming to the JCA Specification.
The product supports any resource adapter that implements version 1.0 of this specification. Although not part of WebSphere Application Server, IBM supplies resource adapters for enterprise systems such as:
- Customer Information Control System (CICS)
- Host On-Demand (HOD)
- Information Management System (IMS)
- Systems, Applications, and Products (SAP) R/3
- Crossworlds
The general approach to writing an application that uses a JCA resource adapter is to develop enterprise bean session beans or services with tools such as WSADIE or VisualAge for Java Enterprise Access Builder. The session bean uses the javax.resource.cci interfaces to communicate with an enterprise information system through the resource adapter.
