iWay Application Adapter for Siebel exposes several
different Siebel methods (such as Query, Insert, Update, Delete,
and so on) for each of the objects and services in each of the interfaces
(Business Services, Business Components, and Integration Objects).
This numerous list of object methods is exposed using iWay Explorer as
described in the iWay Application Adapter for Siebel User's
Guide.
- When integrating with Siebel using Siebel XML documents,
the adapter application developer can use existing Siebel Integration
Objects or create new Siebel Integration Objects to use within a
Siebel Workflow. The Workflow processes inbound or outbound Siebel
XML and uses various transports such as MQSeries, File, and HTTP
to exchange transactions with external systems. The Siebel Workflow
is usually created by the Siebel administrator or developer using
Siebel Workflow Administration screens.
- When integrating with Siebel directly using the Java™ Data Bean
Interface, iWay Application Adapter for Siebel does not require
a Siebel Integration Object or Siebel Workflow. Instead, it executes
Siebel Business Services and Siebel Business Components directly.
