Background

Websphere MQ is used in every major industry in many countries around the world, and is the

pseudo-standard for program-to-program communication in the Financial industry.

Background

The MQ Network:Websphere MQ is IBM’s middleware for commercial messaging and queuing – a method of program-to-program communication. Websphere MQ programs use a consistent API across all platforms

Background

The MQ Network:Each remote system has its own queue manager with its own queues. The queue manager transfers messages to other queue managers via channels using existing network facilities, such as TCP/IP, SNA, SPX.
