RE: [ebxml-dev] query

Gaurav,

The value of ebXML goes beyond messaging. The issue that concerns
you at the moment, whether to use AS2 or ebXML Messaging is better viewed
in context.

The value that ebXML suite of specifications provide is the mapping
they provide - from BPSS (Business Process) to CPP (Partner Profile) to
CPA
(Partner Agreement)  to ebMS (Messaging). If it is important for your
solution to integrate business processes (public and private) with the
messaging
layer, going with AS2 will leave you a bit handicapped.

On the other hand, if you are concerned only about connectivity, then you
may
choose whatever is required by your environment. From an implementation
difficulty
point of view AS2 may be somewhat more painful to implement than ebMS
(i.e.,
ebMS+encryption). You haven't talked about RNIF (RosettaNet Infrastructure
Framework)
messaging, which is another candidate to consider as well.

Hope this helps!

Hi ,
I am new to  ebxml domain..
I wanted to know we have to implement either of AS2 or ebXML  for our
project which is for Retail industry in Europe . which one we should use ,
considering the fact that retail gient Walmart  already uses AS2 for
messaging. And if it decides to go with AS2 for its European subsidiaries
and  if this body proposes ebMS, then things might get a bit messy.
any opinion  ??

regards

Gaurav
