Request and response decoupling via pluggable transports in a service oriented pipeline architecture for a request response message exchange pattern

An article of manufacture comprising a machine-readable storage medium having machine executable instructions embedded thereon, which when executed by a machine, cause the machine to:

• receive a message having coded therein information identifying a desired pluggable transport mechanism for a request and/or a response;
• process the message through a message processing pipeline;
• dispatch the processed message to a dispatcher;
• determine if the desired pluggable transport mechanism is available;
• activate the desired pluggable transport mechanism, if the desired pluggable transport mechanism is available;
• and
• transport the processed message via the desired pluggable transport mechanism.

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory coupled to the processor to store information related to messages;
• a message processor, operably coupled with the processor and the memory, to receive a message having coded therein information identifying a desired pluggable transport for a request and/or a response, to process the message through a message processing pipeline, and to dispatch the processed message to a dispatcher;
• and
• a transport factory coupled to the dispatcher and operably coupled with the processor and the memory, the transport factory including a plurality of pluggable transports, the transport factory to determine if the desired pluggable transport is available, to activate the desired pluggable transport, if the desired pluggable transport is available, and to transport the processed message via the desired pluggable transport.
