Listeners

Listeners are background processes in the Pega Platform that wait for inbound network requests or messages. In a high availability environment, listeners should be distributed across hosts and Pega Platform servers to assure redundancy.

The listeners available in the Pega Platform are:

  • Email
  • File
  • Java Message Service (JMS)
  • Message Queue for IBM Websphere (MQ)
  • JMS Message Driven Bean for JEE (e-tier) deployments (JMS MDB)
