Perface
It is from PeopleBooks that PeopleSoft Integration Borker facilitates exposing PeopleSoft business logic as services for PeopleSoft Applications to invoke, which means that IB (Integration Broker) helps PeopleSoft to work with other systems. The overview of the architecture is follow:
The integration process include configuring messaging systems as well as managing integration gateways, while we have the following items in the integration gateways:
- Nodes
- Messages
- Queues (“Queue” is once called “Message Channel” in pervious PeopleSoft version.)
- Services
- Service Operations
- Routings
I am able to give a general picture about the above items according to my understanding:
A service operation can develiery messages though a routing, while service operation is working in a queue. That’s it. Of course, there are also some pictures from PeopleBooks, which make out the mechanism.
These days, I was working on some IB in action to have a better understanding of it. There is an article,Using PeopleSoft Integration Broker, about how to get a fileoutput by using IB, but the tutorial is a little bit out of date. Now let us see how to make it work in our system.
