Generating Schemas and Business Services

You can use iWay Explorer to connect to relational databases, such as Oracle or Informix and to non-relational databases, such as an IMS database. The majority of the interactive information that is generated for the RDBMS adapter, such as, targets, statements, and web services are stored in the iBSP repository.

When connected to non-relational databases, the adapter uses an iWay server component which enables you to take advantage of all the integration capabilities offered by iWay Software for mainframe database access. For example, when using the iWay server component, you gain relational database access to non-relational data. Stored procedures for non-relational databases can be created and stored using the server component.

The following highlights the tasks you will perform to generate request and response document schemas and a business service, and provides references to the related procedures found in this chapter.
