Welcome!

This blog is for discussion WebSphere Application Server (WAS) and Messaging.

In particular it will cover the service integration technology included in WAS, which is known as the "SIBus" or just "SIB". SIBus provides the default messaging provider for JMS applications in WAS. It also provides an asynchronous transport used by SCA and the WPS/WESB stack products.

Instead of using the default messaging provider, you can configure JMS Resource for an alternative JMS provider, such as WebSphere MQ (WMQ). WAS V7.0 includes a JCA 1.5 Resource Adapter for WMQ and new panels for configuration of JMS resources.

We hope you find this blog useful - the authors are all folks who work on or with WAS Messaging and have direct practical experience.
