iWay provides several components that can be deployed and run in J2EE Application Servers:

• iWay Business Services Provider (iBSP) provides transformation and adapter hosting functionality as well as an environment for developing, running, and integrating web services. It provides a transformation and integration engine for processing XML files and SOAP messages for exchanges with web services applications. The servlet implementation of iBSP runs as a web application. After you deploy Servlet iBSP, you have access to adapters installed with iWay 6.1.7 SM.
• iWay Explorer uses iWay adapters to create schemas and web services for use with iWay components or other XML or web service-based programs. It enables you to quickly generate schemas and publish web services from objects and procedures in production ERP systems, without requiring in-depth knowledge of the object or system. The servlet implementation of iWay Explorer is a web application that you can deploy to your application server.

Installing iWay 6.1.7 SM Components explains how to configure these components. The following steps are involved:

• Ensure your application server is properly installed and configured.
• Perform any prerequisites to configure the application server for iWay components.
• Prepare iWay application server components to be deployed. For certain application servers, this can be automated by running the iWay deploy tool.
• Deploy your application server components.
• If needed, create a database repository.
