Passing Attachment to BPEL Web Service

671828Nov 21 2008 — edited Nov 24 2008
Hi,

Our client has a requirement to interface large files attachment from source system to the target system. One way of addressing this is by implementing "FTP as an attachment" feature to address large file using FTP adapters.

However, the design we are looking at is to
a) Design a BPEL process to accept attachment as the input
b) So that source system will invoke BPEL web service and pass attachment to the BPEL web service (if it is possible)
c) Once the BPEL process receives the attachment, it should call the target system web service and pass the attachment to the web service of target system.

I need help in understanding the feasibility of this approach.

1) Can BPEL web service accepts attachment as the input ?
2) Can BPEL process invoke another web service passing attachment to it.
3) If yes, what can be the maximum recommended size of the attachment?
4) Any pointer to the documents related to this ?

We are on 10.1.3.1.

Appreciate your help on this.

thanks, Riz
