What is DataPower SLM?

What is DataPower SLM?

SLM has the ability to monitor traffic and take action if traffic patterns meet certain criteria. For example, consider the case where you have a backend that can only process 300 transactions per second (TPS). SLM can be used to take action when more than 300 TPS inbound transactions are received.

What does data power mean?

What is front side handler in DataPower?

When using an MQ Front Side Handler (FSH) which acts as a Poller, the DataPower appliance must be configured specifically to handle the condition of the network interface or link failure on the appliance. In this configuration, let us assume that two interfaces are configured on the appliance.

What is ESB model?

An ESB, or enterprise service bus, is a pattern whereby a centralized software component performs integrations to backend systems (and translations of data models, deep connectivity, routing, and requests) and makes those integrations and translations available as service interfaces for reuse by new applications.

How do you integrate MQ with DataPower?

We’ll use the WebSphere MQ Explorer to explore the resources created in this process.

  1. Step 1: Create the WebSphere MQ resources.
  2. Step 2: Create a DataPower multi-protocol gateway.
  3. Step 3: Create a DataPower processing policy.
  4. Step 5: Configure the front side handler.
  5. Step 6: Complete the gateway configuration.

What is MPGW?
