Re: receive web order from another server

Shalom,

An excellent point...

But it should be mentioned that even in this day and age, it's
possibly that having the ordering down when the i is down may be
perfectly acceptable. Assuming that the web site serves as a B2B
extranet site, as opposed to a public web site, one may not need
24x7x365.

Even for a public web site, real 24x7x365 may be more $$$ than the OP
would want to spend.

Charles

Does that server belong to your organization or to an external party?

I suggest that you don't use web services for direct communications between
these applications, at least not for shopping cart integration.
Your System i is probably not available 24/7, but a web facing shop is. How
do you propose to accept customer orders when your System i is down?
