I've been asked to look at this 'Partner Gateway' package as well. It's a
packaged solution that uses GXS AI and webMethods Fabric products. WebMethods
Fabric is the integration piece to back-end systems as well as external
communications like AS2. It is limited to 10 TP communications connections
however you can
purchase additional licenses in blocks of 5, but it is quite
expensive.
Have you looked at ECS Delta or
Enterprise from Softshare?

A company I'm working for recently purchased a suite of IBM
middleware. I have used Websphere in the past and did not care for
the product or IBM... that was 4 years ago. The translator I've been
asked to use is called 'Partner Gateway' and it looks overly
complicated for what we need it to do. I'm familiar with Gentran and
GXS AI and both would be better options in my opinion. We're running
on Unix and using the service bus architecture of Webshpere.
My thought was that I'd implement a small and separate
EDI gateway
that appeared as a service on the bus. So, GIS would be too big in my
opinion... I just a need a translator with good XML handling, partner
profiles, and great error handling so we can easily see where errors
exist... without having to program all of this ourselves.
I'm having a mental block as to who's out there for good but simple
software.... and that doesn't want to run my entire back end.
Thanks,
Carl
