Definition

Selected asynchronous Enterprise Service support point-to-point communication through the Web Service protocol.

This requires additional logic for both a service provider and the service consumer:

  • Dependent on the protocol (XI vs. WS) a service consumer needs to differentiate certain features. 'Exactly Once In Order' for instance is available within the XI protocol only - the Web Service protocol instead provides 'sequences' which need to be administered by the consumer.
  • In a Request Confirmation pattern a service provider needs to correlate a response message (Confirmation) to the pertaining request message so that the reponse is routed correctly.
  • Correct message sequencing between the message sender and recipient needs to be ensured on the application level to ensure data consistency. A persistent sequence closed by a service provider - or messages transferred and rejected in 'Forward Error Handling' might lead to out-of-sequence situations which cannot be avoided on the technical layer.

To support the required additional functionality a reuse library is provided in Business Suite Reuse layer. This library can be activated with this switch.
