In this tutorial, we are going to learn about JMS (Java Messaging Service) with the weblogic server. Before we proceed with the tutorial, Let`s go through some JMS definitions.
JMS (Java Messaging Service)
A message is a request that contains information needed to coordinate communication between different applications.
In other words, For sending the messages between the different Java clients the Java Message Service(JMS) uses a Java Message Oriented Middleware API.
Here is the list of the major components of the WebLogic JMS Server architecture.
JMS Server --> Hosts the modules and associated persistent store that reside on a WebLogic Server instance.
JMS modules --> Contains the resource configuration (such as queues, topics, and connections factories)
JMS Application --> Producer or a consumer.
JNDI (Java Naming and Directory Interface) --> JNDI provides the resource lookup facility.
Persistent Store --> File or JDBC store to store the persistent messages.
In coming lessons, we are going to learn on how to configure JMS resources in weblogic
server environment.
FIRST SAMPLE TUTORIAL:
In this section, we are going to learn on how to configure jms server in weblogic using the weblogic administration console.
1.Login to Administration Console, using the administrator username and password.
2.On left panel, look for Services --> Messaging --> JMS Servers
3.On Right Panel, Click NEW
4.On the next screen, fill the details as follows:
Name JMSServer-1 Persistent Store None
5.Click NEXT
6.Select Target managedserver1
7.Click Finish
8.Completed, Weblogic JMS Server configured successfully.
Now we did not configure the persistent store in this tutorial, as we are going to learn about how to configure the persistent store in next tutorial.
We need to create the second JMS server and target it to the second weblogic managed application server. Please follow the above steps to do so, and make sure not to have the same naming convention.
