What is IBM Informix MQ DataBlade?

IBM Informix MQ DataBlade is an interface between the IBM Informix database and applications using IBM WebSphere MQSeries.

IBM's MQSeries enables communications between applications or between users and a set of applications on dissimilar systems. Because MQSeries runs on over 30 platforms, its forte is that it is able to integrate disparate systems.

How does it work?

IBM Informix MQ DataBlade comes as a module that installs IBM Informix user-defined routines (UDRs) that communicate using the WebSphere MQ integration software. The DataBlade provides access to MQSeries queues from SQL functions or tables. Using SQL to interface to these queues results in faster application development and integration times.
