Roberto,

This is FYI

One of main differences between Synchronous and Async messages is,

Async messages persist the data unlike Sync messages.

Even if the target system is offline, the data need not be sent again as async system persist the data.

I would prefer 2 Async messages to one Sync.

I have seen some customers doing so.

You have a great performance, scalability and more simple interface if you use assynchronos interfaces, like the type fire-and-forget interfaces.

I use synchronous interfaces only if need user interaction, or i don´t have other way do develop the interface.

Hi,

As far as possible, Online / Synch calls on XI should be avoided.

Try to make as many asynch calls as possible.

Also, if your Internet Applications are going to provide webservices, then you can use SOAP adapter to achieve the Integration with XI.

Please refer to this document on a Webservice Set up with XI,
