It can be used with any transport for which IBM has provided the relevant nodes.
 
 
This will present the same potential problems as using non-MQ transport in non-WMB situations, and the same potential problems as using MQ within WMB. _________________ Honesty is the best policy.

				I've used WMB with MSMQ, WebLogic, and ActiveMQ. The most common approach to using non-MQ transports is through a bridge. Bridges to/from * to MQ are usually provided by the vendor of the other transport. 
 
 
In some cases, it may make sense to create a custom input node. These would be the most efficient in terms of latency and throughput, but more effort code code and maintain.
 
 
Bridging transports is a turn-key out-of-the-box solution that requires no coding. _________________ http://leanpub.com/IIB_Tips_and_Tricks

				Yes, you can read / write to any JMS system.  You can also bridge to / from a transport and MQ
 
 
What about putting WMB directly on top of WebLogic without any MQ at all.  How does WMB handle this since there is not a qmgr name in WebLogic |

				WMB is directly integrated with WMQ and WMQ is a prerequisite. 
 
 
Why even think about this? What is driving your thoughts? WMQ is the best transport in the world by far, and best performing. Why would you want a substandard WMB configuration with something less than WMQ? _________________ http://leanpub.com/IIB_Tips_and_Tricks

It doesn't handle it.
 
 
It doesn't allow it in the first place.  You can't put Broker "on top" of anything other than MQ. |
