Integration Server hosts packages that contain services and related files. The Integration Server provides an environment for the orderly, efficient, and secure execution of services.

Trading Networks extracts the document attributes from every document it receives. These extracted document attributes include the attributes required for monitoring and for further processing. After document processing, Trading Networks sends the monitorable attribute values as events to Optimize for B2B for analysis. An event is the data that Trading Networks sends to Optimize for B2B for monitoring.

Monitoring API is the medium through which Trading Networks posts the events to the JMS queue in Broker.

The JMS Server, generally either Software AG Universal Messaging or Broker , along with the JMS queue act as an intermediary to pass the data from Trading Networks to webMethods Optimize. By default, the Software AG Universal Messaging Server on the Integration Server is used. For more information on Software AG Universal Messaging, see the Terracotta website. For more information about configuring Broker for Optimize for B2B, see Configuring the Java Message Service (JMS) Server.

Optimize for B2B. Trading Networks uses Optimize for B2B for its monitoring capabilities and to define and manage the KPIs required for analysis and monitoring. Optimize for B2B subscribes to the events from the broker (deprecated) and analyzes those events using one of its Analytic Engines. This analyzed data is saved to the Optimize database.

Optimize Database. Optimize stores Optimize for B2B information about Trading Networks transaction data in relational databases. For more information about the Optimize database, see Administering webMethods Optimize.

My webMethods Server. My webMethods Server is the run-time container for functions that webMethods components make available. Trading Networks administrators use My webMethods to configure Trading Networks to enable BAM, or Optimize for B2B. My webMethods Server also contains the Configuration Engine, which pushes down configuration information into Optimize when an environment is deployed.
