PeopleSoft Integration Broker Preface

This preface provides an overview of the PeopleSoft Integration Broker PeopleBook.

PeopleSoft Integration Broker

PeopleSoft Integration Broker facilitates exposing PeopleSoft business logic as services and consuming external web services for PeopleSoft applications to invoke. PeopleSoft Integration Broker also supports synchronous and asynchronous messaging with other PeopleSoft applications and with third-party systems. PeopleSoft Integration Broker uses a variety of communication protocols, while managing message structure, message content, and transport disparities.

This PeopleBook describes the processes for using PeopleSoft Integration Broker to develop and administer web services. These processes include configuring messaging systems and managing integration gateways. They also include defining services and service operations, messages, queues, nodes, routings, and transformations.

This PeopleBook also discusses developing the necessary PeopleCode to send, receive, and route service operations, as well as developing PeopleCode and XSLT code to filter, transform and translate message content.

This PeopleBook also describes monitoring service operation activity, managing errors, and debugging code, as well as developing listening and target connectors to accommodate additional communication protocols.
