WebSphere adapters

WebSphere adapters, also known as resource adapters, enable managed, bidirectional connectivity between enterprise information systems (EISs) and Java EE components supported by the server.

WebSphere adapters, which are preferred over WebSphere Business Integration adapters, are covered elsewhere in this information library.

To learn about configuring and using WebSphere adapters, see Configure and using adapters. In the adapter guide for your adapter, expand the navigation and click Administer the adapter module.
