JNDI Connection Factories
You can perform create, get, update, and delete operations on the following connection factory types:
*Connection Factory
*Topic Connection Factory
*Queue Connection Factory
*XA Connection Factory
The following table describes the fields an values to specify when you create or update a connection factory.
Field
Description
Name
Required. Unique name of the new connection factory, for example, connectionfactory1. You cannot edit the name after you create the connection factory.
Type
Type of the connection factory. You cannot edit this field.
Connection URL
Required. Universal Messaging server URL for binding the connection factory, for example, nsp://localhost:9000. To specify a cluster of server instances, use a comma-separated list of connection URLs, for example, nsp://localhost:9000,nsp://localhost:9010. You can use a horizontal scalability connection factory to specify several connection URLs, where each connection URL can point to a standalone realm or a cluster.
Horizontal scalability connection factories enable clients to publish messages to a set of servers or consume messages from a set of servers in a round-robin manner:
*For round-robin publishing, one message or transaction gets published to the first realm node or cluster, the next message to the next realm node or cluster, and so on.
*For round-robin consuming, there is no guarantee about the order in which the events are delivered.
For a horizontal scalability connection factory, you specify several connection URLs, using the horizontal scalability URL syntax.
For information about the syntax, see URL Syntax for Horizontal Scalability.
Consider the following example:
(UM1,UM2)(UM3,UM4) - Indicates 2 clusters, one consisting of UM1 and UM2 and the other consisting of UM3 and UM4, so only two connections are constructed here.
Note:
Round-robin delivery is not supported for XA Connection Factory.
Durable type
Select the durable type for Connection Factory and Topic Connection Factory. The default type is Named.
