RE: [ebxml-dev] ebXML Message Polling Mechanism

[David Fischer <david@drummondgroup.com>]

ebXML-MS does not support PULL.

However, ebXML-MS does support multiple transfer protocols -- HTTP, SMTP, FTP.
If your customers are overly security conscience, try using SMTP.  There are
trade-offs of course.  SMTP will be slower and will not support larger files.

Subject: [ebxml-dev] ebXML Message Polling Mechanism


Does anyone know if ebXML supports a pull mechanism in terms of polling for
messages rather than pushing messages to their intended recipients?
We are a 3rd party and are faced with the task of having to deliver messages to
customers who have security concerns and do not want to allow direct push of
messages through their firewall.

Thanks,
Steve
