Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for enabling a conversational transaction in a service oriented architecture. The apparatus, system and method include receiving at an IMS Connect a first conversational transaction ('CT') request comprising a conversation option flag from a Java client over a TCP/IP connection to a first socket of the IMS Connect and transmitting the first CT request to an IMS. The apparatus, system, and method include receiving from the IMS a first response to the first CT request and a conversational transaction identifier ('CTID'), and returning the first response along with the CTID to the Java client in response to the conversation option flag being set. The first response and CTID are transmitted using TCP/IP. The response is a portion of the conversational transaction and the CTID is configured to identify to the IMS subsequent CT requests from the Java client as part of the CT.
