Client workstation installation
Installing the Message Manager on a client workstation is the default option. This option requires connectivity to the IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender Launcher machine and the complete Design Studio environment. There are advantages and disadvantages to this type of installation.
As an advantage, this installation provides a single point of control for the Trading Manager operations. Also, better performance is achieved while running Design Studio as there is no network overhead.
As a disadvantage, it is difficult to share Message Manager responsibilities with other resources. Also, an extra step is required when adding new versions or transactions to the system.
