JMS on the Web

Message-oriented middleware has been a key element for interfacing distributed applications for quite a long time. JMS, with its support for most of the MOM requirements like PTP messaging, Pub/Sub messaging, synchronous and asynchronous message delivery, can play a vital role in integrating heterogeneous applications functioning in isolation to each other.

One important aspect in web-based e-commerce application development is the asynchronous interchange of electronic data between the participating applications. To make such an application successful, the web-based system should integrate seamlessly with back-office applications, including existing legacy systems. In most of these scenarios the applications interface with each other by sharing data in pre-agreed formats. The interface is more efficient if the applications can interchange data between each other asynchronously. JMS coupled with XML is the most appropriate solution for these scenarios, where XML can take care of the data format issues and JMS the data transport details. We shall see more about JMS and XML in Chapter 10.
