ACE REST API - only one administration request (POST/PATCH/PUT/DELETE) can get processed by a single IntegrationServer and its not possible to execute them parallelly We want to have this behavior modified to be able to process multiple request in parallel.

 ACE REST API - only one administration request (POST/PATCH/PUT/DELETE) can get processed by a single IntegrationServer and its not possible to execute them in parallel ( IBM response to a PMR ).  We want to have this behavior modified to be able to process multiple ACE REST API requests in parallel within the same Integration Server.  Please reference PMR TS013997743 for more detail.

    Thank you for taking the time to raise this enhancement request, and also for the wider discussion which occurred through your ticket. For the benefit of other readers, the initial core problem which was experienced related to the attempted stop of a message flow which contained a TCPIPClientReceive node. The integration server was waiting for the message flow to complete its in-fligt work before being stopped. The ticket also discussed use of the "Close with unprocessed data" option which can be exploited if you don't want to wait for in-flight TCPIP work to complete. That conversation made it clear that you would prefer not to use that setting, but also specifically would prefer not to block other administrative actions. It would be possible to change ACE behaviour which currently deliberately blocks this kind of concurrency of requests - this behaviour currently protects the server in circumstances where the separate admin requests can influence one another due to changes to shared dependent artifacts. More complex locking code could be written to make the locks be taken out at a more granular level, but this would be a significant undertaking for what we suspect is a fringe use case which is only rarely encountered. Given this, we have no opposition to the requirement but would currently view it as a low business priority. As usual of course, we are open to comments to the contrary from our community. Status is moved to Future Consideration.
