Mediation primitives
Mediation flows consist of a sequence of mediation primitives, which define processing steps.
A mediation primitive receives a message,
processes it and propagates the processed message to the next primitive
or node in the flow. For example, a Database Lookup primitive retrieves
a value from a database and sets it in the message. A ready-made set
of mediation primitives is available from the Mediation Flow editor
palette. If you need mediation capabilities that are not provided
by this set of primitives, you can create custom mediation primitives
to call your own Java™ implementation
or an imported service. Mediation primitives have terminals which
receive and propagate messages. For example, these are the terminals
of a Message Logger:
- The input terminal on the left receives the message
- The output terminal (located in the upper right of the diagram) propagates the message on successful processing to the next primitive or node in the flow
- The fail terminal on the lower right propagates the message and failure information when a run failure occurs in the primitive.
