I graduated from University of Pennsylvania with a PhD in Chemical Physics. The computer skills that I used in my research were mainly focused on C/Unix programming and real-time electronics control. After graduation, I decided to choose computer science as my career. I spent my first two years on broadening my general computer language skills and database skills. I used Java, Delphi, C, C++, Visual Basic, Oracle and SQL servers. I started to focus my career on e-Commerce development and integration about 5 years ago. I built award-winning large-scale web banking system and intranet loan origination system using 3-tier architecture and Microsoft MTS server. Java, Visual Basic, Visual C++ and ATL were heavily used. I started my work at the leading B2B company VerticalNet about 2 and ½ years ago. My focus has been B2B supplier integration and EAI integration. I led VerticalNet backend e-Commerce team to build two B2B and EAI systems, one using Microsoft technology and the other one using Java/J2EE technology. We built both systems in loosely couple environment. We have used heavily and deployed to production Biztalk Server, webMethods, Weblogic, EDI, JCA, JMS, message driven bean and J2EE technolog. I am a true believer of B2B and EAI. After left VerticalNet, I opened my own consulting firm in the area of B2B and EAI development and integration and worked as a contractor since then.
Whether you’re an IT manager or a J2EE architect, if you’re interested in
EIS connectivity you’ll be excited about the promises of JCA. What is JCA?
What are its most appealing features? What are its shortcomings? Who are the
vendors that support it? Are there any other choices so I can do some
comparison shopping? What path should I take from here? This article sheds
some light on these questions.
First I provide an overview of JCA and its features, then I discuss the type
of support provided by the application servers in the market. The rest of
this article focuses on the state of the market for JCA adapters. Finally I
offer some guidelines to help you determine if JCA is the right solution for
you.
JCA Features
Before JCA became available, connectivity to EIS presented a set of common
issues and needs. First, each EIS application had its own programming
