RE: Warehouse Automation Project

Oliver,

MQSeries (now known as WebSphere MQ) from IBM is designed to queue data
between disparate operating systems.  A quick glance at the page below
shows about twenty different support OS's, including multiple flavors of
UNIX and Windows.

This would be an industrial strength solution and would probably be
priced accordingly.  It would do what you describe below.

Regards,
Andy Nolen-Parkhouse
