Event Bus Channels and Topics
webMethods Universal Messaging and webMethods Broker are JMS (Java Message Service) providers that support point-to-point and publish and subscribe messaging. This enables JMS applications to profit from the reliability and performance of Universal Messaging or Broker. The message protocol used for webMethods Business Events is JMS.
For webMethods Business Events, EDA participants publish their events to JMS topics and subscribe to JMS topics. Software AG EDA uses the JNDI mechanism for directory and naming services.
The default JNDI destination and JMS topic name has the format:
Event::Namespace::EventTypeName
The namespace is the path within the Event Type Store where the event type is located. Backslash characters in the path are replaced by the channel name delimiter (by default, two colons "::").
For example:
For the CableboxHealth event type, which is located in the
WebM/Sample/CableboxMonitoring folder in the
Event Type Store, the default channel name is:
Event::WebM::Sample::CableboxMonitoring::CableboxHealth
For the noTns event type, which does not have a namespace and is located in the
WebM/External folder in the
Event Type Store, the default channel name is:
Event::WebM::External::noTns
