Message communication - incoming or outgoing from/to an external system in Oracle Banking Trade Finance will happen only through an Oracle Banking Trade Finance Integration Gateway. Hence, it becomes the first point of contact or last point of contact with the database in message flow. The Oracle Banking Trade Finance Integration Gateway can be deployed to support both the distributed and single schema deployments of Oracle Banking Trade Finance:

• Distributed deployment of OBTF – In this situation the database components of the Gateway are deployed as two or more schemas
  • The messaging schema as part of SMS schema in the SMS and/or HO instance
  • The business schema(s) in the various branch schemas in the branch instance(s)
• Single schema deployment of OBTF – In this situation the database components of the Gateway (messaging and business) are both deployed as part of the single Oracle Banking Trade Finance schema.
