Configuring a binding using JMS

Java™ Message Service (JMS) is an application programming interface that provides Java language functions for handling messages. Use JMS as the transport method when you want to send and receive those messages via message queues or topics. You can use your own custom format with the Text over JMS binding.

Before you begin

You must be using the Network Deployment edition of WebSphere® Application Server to perform these tasks.
  1. Setting up JMS in IBM WebSphere Application Server
    If you attach the Text Over JMS binding by using IBM® InfoSphere® Information Services Director in the IBM InfoSphere Information Server console, you must first configure messaging queues or topics within IBM WebSphere Application Server. Queues and topics are the virtual places where messages are exchanged.
  2. Setting up JMS in IBM InfoSphere Information Services Director
    If you want to send and receive messages for your service using the Java Message System (JMS) transport method, you must attach the Text over JMS binding in the IBM InfoSphere Information Server console using IBM InfoSphere Information Services Director.
