Description:
For an overview of how adapters interoperate with TIBCO ActiveMatrix 2.x, please see LBN1-A501CD.

TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks can run as an ActiveMatrix container using its TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks Service Engine component. Please refer to the TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks documentation for the supported versions of TIBCO ActiveMatrix ® components.

When BW services are deployed to the TIBCO ActiveMatrix BusinessWorks Service Engine, then the user can either:
•    deploy the services "as is" using ActiveEnterprise messages; or
•    update the services to use ActiveMatrix Bindings.

ActiveEnterprise messages:
------------------------------------
If the services use ActiveEnterprise messages, then the BW services can communicate with the adapter using AE/RV or AE/EMS:

For details regarding the adapter versions that are supported with BW 5.6.x, BW 5.7.x, BW 5.8.x, BW 5.9.x, or BW 5.10x,  please refer to the product readmes and the product specific LBNs.


ActiveMatrix Bindings:
------------------------------
If the services are updated to use the ActiveMatrix Bindings then the BWSE services are supported with the Adapter Binding Type for the following Adapter Services / Message Exchange Patterns (MEPs):
•    One-Way (In-Only) maps to an adapter Subscriber.
•    Notification (Out-Only) maps to an adapter Publisher (supported with BWSE 5.7.x or 5.8.x, 5.9.2 and higher 5.9.x, or 5.10.x)
•    Request-Response (In-Out) maps to a adapter RPC Server

Please refer to the following LBNs for details regarding the adapter versions that are supported using the Adapter Binding Type component with ActiveMatrix:
