Banking organizations use the S.W.I.F.T. (Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications) network to exchange messages between counter party institutions.
Roma FS/Access (Roma Financial Services Access) enables Straight Through Processing (STP) of messages between financial applications connected via the S.W.I.F.T. network by providing a reliable, robust and easy-to-use means of exchanging S.W.I.F.T. messages between distributed platforms and locations. It provides message oriented middleware (MOM) based facilities which enable applications to send and receive S.W.I.F.T. messages in a secure and controlled environment.
The main component of Roma FS/Access is the FS/Access Gateway which connects to the S.W.I.F.T. network via one of the standard S.W.I.F.T. Interface products (the two currently supported by FS/Access are SWIFTAlliance Access and ST400).
Applications exchange messages with the Gateway using a standard messaging interface such as MSMQ, MQSeries or Roma.
The S.W.I.F.T. Interface provides a number of unique entry points. Each entry point corresponds to a different set of facilities that are required for delivery of the message to the S.W.I.F.T. network. The FS/Access Gateway mirrors these entry points as a number of different connections called Message Partners.
Normally at least three connections are maintained between the FS/Access Gateway and the S.W.I.F.T. Interface. These connections allow messages being sent into the S.W.I.F.T. network to be handled separately from messages and reports (for example, logical replies, network acknowledgement and delivery confirmation reports) being received from the network. These connections are defined within FS/Access as either "To S.W.I.F.T. or "From S.W.I.F.T. Message Partners.
The FS/Access Gateway only supports Message Partners that either send or receive messages; it does not support Message Partners that can both send and receive messages; but by using multiple Message Partners an application can both send and receive messages via the Gateway.
FS/Access also provides additional facilities such as audit trail, reconciliation (logical reply handler), alert logging, mesage fix (undeliverable messages) and security applications.
