Administer reliable Web services
To configure a Web service application to use WS-ReliableMessaging, you attach a policy set that contains a WS-ReliableMessaging policy type. This policy type offers a range of qualities of service: managed persistent, managed non-persistent, or unmanaged non-persistent.
WS-ReliableMessaging is an interoperability standard for the reliable transmission of messages between two endpoints. To administer WS-ReliableMessaging for an application, you take the following broad actions:
At any stage, we can set a property that configures endpoints to only support clients that use reliable messaging. This setting is reflected by WS-Policy if engaged.
- Attach a reliable messaging policy set (either a default policy set or one that we have created) to an aspect of the application (that is, application level or Web service level). Policy sets define the reliability level (quality of service) and other configuration options to apply to the reliable messaging application.
- Define the bindings for each attachment to a policy set that specifies a managed quality of service. That is, choose the service integration bus and messaging engine to use to maintain the state for the managed persistent and managed non-persistent qualities of service.
If the WS-ReliableMessaging application is running inside the Web container and using a managed quality of service, we can also use WS-ReliableMessaging to provide transactional recoverable messaging.
- Set a WS-ReliableMessaging policy set.
You can do this using the admin console or using wsadmin. We can also configure WS-SecureConversation to work with WS-ReliableMessaging.
- Attach and bind a WS-ReliableMessaging policy set to a Web service application
We can do this using the admin console or using wsadmin.
- Set endpoints to only support clients that use reliable messaging.
- Provide transactional recoverable messaging through WS-ReliableMessaging.
