Bus topologies

You can connect buses in different ways depending on your requirements. For example, you can link messaging engines to distribute message workload, and to provide system availability in the event of system failure.

A topology that consists of just one messaging engine may be adequate for some applications. Deploying more than one messaging engine, and linking them together, has advantages:

A bus topology can contain links to WebSphere MQ networks. This allows messages to flow between applications connected to a WebSphere MQ queue manager and applications attached to a service integration bus.
