The Track and Trace use case application interfaces with
the InfoSphere™ Traceability Server system
using two separate interfaces, the query interface and the capture
interface.
Before you begin
The steps in this task are completed by the WebSphere® Premises Server 6.1 Feature Pack for Sensor Event Services installation
program. Perform the steps in this task only if a reconfiguration
of the use case is required.
About this task
The query interface is a Web services interface. The endpoints
are configurable by the Resource Environment custom properties. There
is no setup necessary for the SOAP/HTTP query interface. The capture
interface is the WebSphere MQ interface.
The observe, shipping, and receiving events are submitted to the InfoSphere Traceability Server through
this interface. A WebSphere MQ channel
is configured between the WebSphere Premises Server and InfoSphere Traceability Server node
by performing the following steps.
