What's new in V6.1 - Detail WebSphere® Partner Gateway V6.1 incorporates and builds upon the capabilities of WebSphere Partner Gateway V6.0 by adding substantial new functional capabilities, performance and usability enhancements, and operating system platform support. These include: ebXML Messaging Service (ebMS) 2.0 used in Canada, Europe, and Asia, and in healthcare and auto industries, and support for the ebMS 2.0 Basic Profile. ebMS 2.0 XML Encryption Profile, designed to test message-based encryption. The technical details of this profile are based on requirements and methods originally defined by the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), which uses ebMS in its Public Health Information Network applications. ebMS 2.0 Automotive Retail Profile, based upon requirements and recommendations from the STAR consortium (Standards for Technology in Automotive Retail), which includes testing of gzip-based compression. ebXML Collaboration Protocol Profile and Agreement (CPPA), which supports the import of CPPAs to automate the exchange and implementation of structured trading partner agreements. EDIINT AS3, which enables the S/MIME with FTP-based data exchange, in addition to the existing support for EDIINT AS1 and AS2. Improved AS Viewer support based on Message Disposition Notification (MDN) return status. CIDX Chem eStandards V4, which provides support for CIDX V4 Chem eStandards used in the Chemicals industry. SOAP with attachments, which provides support for exchanging documents within, and as attachments to, SOAP messages. Generalized XPATH, which provides enhanced XML data querying and manipulation support. Improved terminology, which simplifies and streamlines terminology across WebSphere Partner Gateway components to enhance usability. Search capability on user-defined fields, which supports the ability to search for business messages through user-defined fields, such as a purchase order or invoice number fields. Additional user-defined attributes to the document definition for use by user exits. Trading partner profile import/export, which allows migration of trading partner profile data between WebSphere Partner Gateway instances, such as development, test, production, and the migration of trading partner profile data from other gateway products to WebSphere Partner Gateway. Non-repudiation by trading partner, which allows non-repudiation to be configured at the partner level, rather than globally for all trading partners, to make better use of the system resources, and can be specified globally for a document definition and narrowed down to partner. Selective archiving support, which allows selective archiving based on partner or document type. Role-based resend capability, which allows messages to be resent by users assigned to other roles, in addition to users assigned to the Hub Admin role; also, multiple users can be assigned the Hub Admin role. Alert notification mode, which allows notifications to be sent to all related parties (source and target partners) or all subscribed contacts, to help reduce alert configuration. EDI configuration wizards, which provide two wizards to facilitate the importing of EDI build-time artifacts and configuration of EDI trading partners and connections. Improved accessibility, which provides additional support for users with disabilities. Support for additional selected operating system platforms. Support for newer versions of middleware applications, which adds support for WebSphere Message Broker V6.0, WebSphere MQ V6.0, and WebSphere Process Server V6.0.2. Integration with WTX and WTX-TM, which provides documented and tested flow-through integration between WTX and WTX-TM to leverage robust B2B transformation and industry standards and EDI support in WTX and WTX-TM. WAS ND, which provides improved deployability and manageability. Removal of WebSphere MQ V5.3 prerequisite by utilizing WebSphere Platform Messaging (WPM) for messaging between WebSphere Partner Gateway components, which also becomes the Java Message Service (JMS) provider for WebSphere Partner Gateway although WebSphere MQ can still be used for connecting to external applications.
