Summary:  Develop an integration solution composed of business and mediation modules. In this tutorial, you deploy the scenario to IBM® WebSphere® Process Server V6.1. The scenario involves the IBM WebSphere Adapter for Flat Files V6.1 for inbound delivery and IBM WebSphere Service Registry and Repository V6.1 to implement a dynamic Web service lookup.

Before you start

About this tutorial

Using the Service Component Architecture (SCA) in IBM WebSphere Integration Developer, you develop a Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) business process that receives data from a WebSphere Adapter for Flat Files and dynamically invokes a Web service. You use WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus mediation components to implement the Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) logic required for interaction with the adapter and Web service. To achieve dynamic service invocation, you retrieve endpoint information from WebSphere Service Registry and Repository V6.1. Then you deploy the complete scenario to WebSphere Process Server and test it end to end.

Objectives

In this tutorial, you learn about a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) integration approach that demonstrates the concept of decoupling service consumers from service providers over an ESB in conjunction with dynamic service endpoint discovery.

Prerequisites

This tutorial is for you if you're an SOA practitioner who wants to get a closer look at how the three core SOA products—WebSphere Process Server V6.1, WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus V6.1, and WebSphere Service Registry and Repository V6.1—interact and how you can use WebSphere Integration Developer V6.1 to develop or assemble integration solutions. You should be familiar with an Eclipse-based development environment, such as IBM Rational® Application Developer. Furthermore, a basic understanding of the SCA is helpful while completing the tutorial.

System requirements

To complete this tutorial you need:

  • IBM WebSphere Integration Developer V6.1.0.1
  • IBM WebSphere Service Registry and Repository V6.1
  • IBM WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment V6.1.0.13
  • IBM DB2® Enterprise 9
