Introducing the Message Broker

The Message Broker provides typed channels, to which messages can be published, and to which services can subscribe to receive messages. You can design your system for subject-based or content-based routing of messages:

Two Message Broker controls are available when you build WebLogic Integration applications: Message Broker (MB) Publish and Message Broker (MB) Subscription. Business processes use MB Publish controls to publish messages to channels and MB Subscription controls to dynamically subscribe to channels and receive messages:

In addition to the dynamic subscriptions you design at the Control nodes in your business process, you can design static subscriptions at Start nodes. A business process that is subscribed to a Message Broker channel at its Start node starts when a message is received on the channel to which it is subscribed.

To learn more about using the Message Broker controls in WebLogic Integration applications, see Message Broker Controls.
