Hi Pawan,

Asynchronous means only a msg needs to be sent by XI and no response is required for it..........

Synchronous means a request msg needs to be sent by XI and a response msg for it is required..........

Inbound means msg going out of XI to some other system

Outbound means msg coming into XI from some other system.

Hi..

Synchronous - It has both Request & Reponse

we couldn't process more than one message at a time

Asynchronous - one way communication

We couldn't wait for any acknowledgement..

when we say inbound /asynchronous, and when we say outbound/synchronous .what does it mean ?

Coverting the Async to Sync to Asyn ..this can done using BPM in XI...

Refer this blog..

Might help you to understand better..

Hello Pawan,

Inbound and Outbound defines the message flow in XI.

Inbound : A message which goes out of XI (i.e Target Message)

Outbound: A messages which comes in to XI (i.e Source Message)

Synchronous: Its one way communciation i.e sender --> Receiver.

Asynchronous: Its a two way communication, Its a request response model.

request

Sender----

---

>Receiver

<-------

response

Thanks,

Kiran
