I’m trying to understand the integration capabilities currently available in Micro Focus Enterprise Server through CTG.
A partner has asked specifically about support for the following areas:
- JCA/J2C interfaces
- ConnectionFactory
- Connection pooling
- Advanced transaction management
- EPI/ESI
- Workload management
Could someone with hands-on experience in this area confirm which of these capabilities are supported today and whether there are any limitations or considerations to be aware of?
I have following initial chart, but I need confirmation:
| Integration with | Via IBM CTG → ES | Via ES native ECI |
| JCA/J2C interfaces | Yes — IBM's resource adapter | Not a JCA adapter; ECI client API |
| ConnectionFactory | Yes (IBM ECIConnectionFactory) | No |
| Connection pooling | Yes — app-server managed | Not container-managed |
| Advanced transaction mgmt | CTG/app-server managed; scope must be confirmed | Limited |
| EPI / ESI | Not supported against ES | Not supported |
| Workload management | Not provided by ES | Not provided |
