Managing Client Connection Point Groups

This topic provides an overview about client connection point groups.


Service consumers or client applications send SOAP requests to Service Groups via a communication interface, called a Connection Point.

Connection Points are available for HTTP, TCP/IP, JMS and MSMQ. These serve as a network address for Service Containers . For example, service containers receive a message on a socket Connection Point and send a reply to a JMS Connection Point.

Service Containers can have at least one or multiple Connection Points. Similar Service Containers can use same Connection Point.

Depending upon the SOAP request involving multiple connection points, they are grouped as Client Connection Point Groups. To form such a client connection point group, all the entities in it must be JMS compliant. If not, that node of request is not guaranteed to serve.
