A JMS connection factory is used to create connections to JMS destinations. When an application needs a JMS connection, an instance can be created by the factory of the JMS provider named in the Provider column of the list.
This type of connection factory is for applications that use the JMS 1.1 domain-independent interfaces (referred to as the "common interfaces" in the JMS specification).
This type of JMS connection factory can also be used by the domain-specific (queue and topic) interfaces, as used in JMS 1.0.2, so applications can still use those interfaces without the need for you to create a domain-specific connection factory, such as a queue connection factory.
