Introduction to InterChange Server integration

This chapter describes how to integrate WebSphere Partner Gateway with WebSphere InterChange Server.

Notes:
  1. For a description of the general process used to integrate WebSphere Partner Gateway with a back-end system, see Planning for back-end integration.
  2. This chapter assumes that you are familiar with WebSphere InterChange Server and associated components, such as collaborations, business objects, and adapters.

Often integration of WebSphere Partner Gateway with a back-end system is done by two separate people or roles. Each role configures a particular component, for which that role has expertise. Therefore, this chapter separates the integration with WebSphere InterChange Server into the configuration of WebSphere Partner Gateway and the configuration of InterChange Server. Table 24 lists these configuration roles along with the places in this chapter to obtain the associated configuration information.

Note: While each of these configuration roles can be performed separately, each also requires common information so that the two components can communicate.
