XA support against the same database using ODBC and JDBC

Currently it is not possible to access the same database via ODBC and JDBC within the same transaction with XA. However, It is not unusual that re-usable sub-flow is developed by one group and shared by other groups. Especially when groups have different skillsets, sub-flow can access database using JDBC, while main-flow uses ODBC. Regardless of technology, XA is all about data integrity on database. This technical issue limits the design and development.

    Idea Review. As part of our policy for regularly reassessing aged ideas we have recently discussed this enhancement request again. Unfortunately on this occasion with the low interest from the community (1 vote in almost 6 years) it has been decided that we won't be taking this idea further forward as a business priority.

    RFE Review. Thank you for taking the time to raise this RFE and apologies for the length of time it has been in Submitted status. In general it is only a small proportion of IIB/ACE users who have a need for full 2 phase globally coordinated message flows, but for those that do, having the flexibility to better interoperate between ODBC and JDBC would certainly improve the flexibility of the product. Status of the RFE is updated to Uncommitted Candidate.
