How messages are passed between service integration and an IBM MQ network
When we program a WebSphere Application Server application that interoperates with IBM MQ through the default messaging provider and a service integration bus, service integration automatically handles most aspects of the conversion and mapping for messages. Understanding how this process works and the differences between the two environments helps you to program and troubleshoot the applications more effectively.
The basic message conversion process is the same whether the service integration bus is interoperating with IBM MQ through an IBM MQ link or with an IBM MQ server. For further information about different types of messaging with IBM MQ links and IBM MQ servers, read whichever of the following sections applies to the system's architecture:
