Databases overview

Brokers can access user databases to manipulate your business data. If you have user databases, you must configure them before you can access them from your message flow.

WebSphere® Message Broker supports the databases that are listed in Supported databases for user databases. If you configure your message flows to access user databases, you cannot access some of the data types that are supported by these databases. The supported data types are defined in Data types of values from external databases.

User databases

User databases are the databases in which you store the business data that is processed by message flow applications. Additional local and remote database managers might also be supported for your computer. For more information, see Supported databases and Database locations.

You must set up connections to the user databases so that the broker can access the databases on behalf of its deployed message flows. Both ODBC and JDBC connections are supported; some restrictions apply on some platforms, as described in the topics in this section. ODBC drivers are supplied and installed with WebSphere Message Broker. JDBC drivers are not supplied by WebSphere Message Broker; you must obtain these files from your database vendor. Supported drivers are listed in Supported databases.

You can use the mqsicvp command as an ODBC test tool; see Enabling ODBC connections to the databases for further information.

For information about connections to user databases, see User database connections.
