webMethods Documents plays a major role in your career, without which there is no webMethods.

In the following video we are going to learn, how to use the "dbConfigurator-non-ui.bat".

In the following video we are going to learn how to use SoftwareAG (SAG) designer to connect to Integration Server (IS)

Do you know how to create a folder and strcuture them? Well let's create a package and then create a folder.

This is quite an important topic and the reason is, we need to know how to add numbers in webMethods as that is the basic foundation of any programming language.

Pipeline is one of the most coolest and most powerful feature ever created by SAG team for webMethods. A standing ovation to the R&D team.

Let us try to understand the meaning of Document; Parent and the Child Realtionship Structure.

Let us try to substitute a variable by some values; But before that we need to know how to initialize a variable.

You need to refer someone right ? So how can we do that with Document, also called as Document Reference.

Let us create a BulePrint, where in webMethods we call them as Document Specification. Once the bule print has been created we need to know how to reference them.

Debugging is a primodial feature any developer looks for, let us see how to debug a code and then we will discuss about how to work with Looping of Document list. looping an array, looping stringList and more.

Looping Disucussion Continued...

Looping Still Continued, along with these looping topic covered so far, let us see how to work with StringList.

With the help of webMethods Branching, we can take different routes.

Sometimes we need to keep on repeating over and over, just like our daily life routine :P, well lets see how we can work that out in webMethods.

If everything is working fine, then we need not worry, incase if there is a failure then we need to catch the error, understand the error and make some meaning and decision out of it. So let's implement try/catch logic in webMethods with the help of "Sequence".

Try/Catch/Sequence contiunued...

There is an option to always exit from the code and webMethods provides the feature of exiting out from the code either from loop or parent or main block with success or failure message.

Exit Continued...

So far we have seen try/catch and now let finally look @FINALLY

Flat files are nothing but a plain text with some constraints, let us understand the meaning of flat file and see how to work it out in webMethods.

What if there is an error in flat files?

With the help of inbuilt service convertToString, we will convert the flat files to String.

Dictionary contains a lot of meanings to words, but here we will host flat files within dictionary, surprised? Lets see how we can achieve it.

Let us understand the concept of Record with ID and Record without ID.

How composite definition works within Flat Files ? And what is the meaning of Composite definition ? Let us understand them in this video.

Fixed length is a very important topic in webMethods and especially it palys a vital role in the EDI. Let us understand the usage of Fixed Length.

Fixed Length Continuation...

Format As a Service is quite a handy feature in webMethods, let us see how we can use them in webMethods.

If there is large / huge flat files, can we handle them? Yes of course we can - Lets analyse it.

Universal Messaging is a Message Orientated Middleware product that guarantees message delivery across public, private and wireless infrastructures; Whereas The Java Message Service (JMS) API is a messaging standard that allows application components based on the Java Platform Enterprise Edition (Java EE) to create, send, receive, and read messages. It enables distributed communication that is loosely coupled, reliable, and asynchronous.

The following video talks about the concepts and usage of UM and JMS within webMethods.

Let's understand the definition of JMS and UM.

Let's see how to start UM and how to configure UM within IS - webMethods.

Configuration of UM is continued, whereas we touch upon one more concept called JNDI and its usage/configuration within webMethods.

Let's explore how to work with JMS Send.

JMS Send continued.

Let's understand what is this so called: "Publishable Document" and how it is going to be utilized in the JMS/UM world.

Have you ever heard off, Durable Subscriber? If not, you are in perfect place.

We really need to know what are Queues and Topic, as these are the primary features when we deal with brokers (pub-sub) model.

Let's explore the option of JMS Wait and Reply

JMS Wait and Reply Continued...

JMS Wait and Reply Continued...

Oh, theory again, but hey do you want to know how JMS is structured, well then we need to get Theroize'd again :)

Hope you are aware of JMS Filtering? If not, then this video talks about how to apply the filters within JMS Triggers.

Can we have an option of Automatic start and stop of UM? Well, yes of-course, this video describes out it.

Let's create another UM instance.

Let's explore on how to work with UM Channels and Queue Creations.

There is an option called as Join Channel, let's explore more on this.

Have you ever created a zone in UM ? If not, let's create one and also lets discuss on the JNDI creation, a bit of JMS and JMS Connection Alias.

Continuation of the Zone creation.

Let's finally conclude UM by discussing on the Cluster Concepts/Creation within UM.
