WebSphere MQ for non-z/OS platforms

 

With WebSphere MQ for non-z/OS platforms we can write applications that:

• Send messages to other applications running under the same operating systems. The applications can be on either the same or another system.

• Send messages to applications that run on other WebSphere MQ platforms.

• Use message queuing from within CICS for AS/400, TXSeries for AIX, TXSeries for HP-UX, TXSeries for Solaris, and TXSeries for Windows systems applications.

• Use message queuing from within Encina for AIX, HP-UX, Solaris, and Windows systems.

• Use message queuing from within Tuxedo for AIX, AT&T, HP-UX, Solaris, and Windows systems.

• Use WebSphere MQ as a transaction manager, coordinating updates made by external resource managers within WebSphere MQ units of work. The following external resource managers are supported and comply with the X/OPEN XA interface

  • DB2

  • Informix

  • Oracle

  • Sybase

• Process several messages together as a single unit of work that can be committed or backed out.

• Run from a full WebSphere MQ environment, or run from a WebSphere MQ client environment on the following platforms:
