Extended architecture as a service to integrate resource and transaction managers

Abstract:

A method, computer program product, and a system where a processor(s), executing extended architecture as a service, obtains a request from an extended architecture compliant transaction manager, to execute a transaction affecting a resource manager not supported by the transaction manager, where the resource managed by the resource manager is selected from the group consisting of: an extended architecture compliant resource, and an extended architecture non-compliant resource, where the request comprises a transaction identifier, and where the transaction comprises extended architecture compliant calls. The processor(s) generates a connection, from the extended architecture as a service to the resource manager, where the connection comprises a connection identifier. The processor(s) maintains, in a log, the connection identifier, the transaction identifier, and a state of the transaction. The processor(s) executes the transaction on the resource managed by the resource manager, via the connection.
