Question: I want to connect to XYZ should I use JCA?
Answer: First you are in the wrong forum. This forum is for technical questions not free consulting. Having said that JCA is the current standard for connecting to legacy systems. It is typically used when you have one of the following requirements. 1) You need the work done in a legacy system to be part of the same transaction as your ejbs/servlets 2) You want to pass/configure security information from the J2EE server to the legacy system. 3) You need pooling. I mean do you really need it? Is the communication expensive, i.e. stateful. If you have none of the above requirements you will probably find an MBean is easier to code than a ResourceAdapter. But there is no standard deployment mechanism for MBeans in J2EE.
