WebSphere DataPower Integration Appliance XI50 is a complete, purpose-built hardware platform for
delivering highly manageable, security-enhanced, and scalable SOA solutions. As specialized SOA
hardware, the XI50 provides, in a single hardened device, many core functions to SOA deployments,
such as service level management, routing, data and policy transformations, policy enforcement, and
access control. Additional advantages of a hardware appliance in the network layer include the
ability to perform more security and structural checks without performance degradation.
There are numerous opportunities to take advantage of the XI50's Enterprise Service Bus (ESB)
capabilities, legacy enablement and integration features, and its capacity to improve Web services
management and SOA governance. Some sample use cases for the XI50 include:
-
Drop-in integration for heterogeneous environments
As a core offering in the IBM ESB product portfolio, the XI50 is a purpose-built hardware ESB
for simplified deployment and hardened security with the ability to quickly transform data between a
wide variety of formats, including XML, legacy, industry standards, and custom formats. The XI50
provides core ESB functionality, including routing, bridging, transformation, and event handling.
The XI50 provides a reliable, performance-oriented solution to many integration challenges. Since
it is not limited to handling just XML, the XI50 resonates with IT organizations that need to
benefit from the connectivity of SOA deployments but must also deal with their current reality of
managing multiple proprietary, industry, company-specific, or legacy data formats. The XI50 is a
true drop-in integration point for such environments, helping to reduce the time and cost of
integrations, and speed the time-to-market for services.
-
Innovative XML and Web-services enablement of legacy infrastructure
For accelerated, security-rich integration capabilities, the XI50 provides transport mediation,
routing, and transformations among binary, text, and XML message formats. Visual tools can be used
to describe data formats, create mappings between different formats, and define message flows. With
native connectivity to IBM DB2 and System z, the XI50 offers an innovative solution for
security-rich XML enablement of legacy systems, as well as mainframe connectivity.
-
Policy-driven approach to Web services management and SOA governance
By centralizing Web services management tasks and policy enforcement and decoupling them from
applications, your SOA infrastructure increases in flexibility and scalability while simultaneously
offering you improved insight, visibility, and control. Moving functions such as access control,
Web services management, security, and policy enforcement onto the XI50 means that IT architects,
operations, security, and business personnel can decouple these functions from the core business
applications, simplifying development, deployment, and manageability.
-
Integration with registry and repository, security, identity, and service management software
The XI50 integrates with a variety of registry and repository, security, identity and service
management software applications. Coupled with access control software such as IBM Tivoli Access
Manager, the XI50 enforces fine-grained access controls. Working with the IBM Tivoli Federated
Identity Manager, the XI50 provides federated Web services identity, and policy management between
organizations and enterprises. Integrated with IBM Tivoli Composite Application Manager for SOA,
the XI50 monitors Web service and SOA traffic flows for end-to-end service management and dashboard
monitoring. Using a registry and repository such as WebSphere Registry and Repository can help you
discover and reuse services and configure new services for DataPower policy and security
enforcement. The combination of these applications and the robust XI50 security features provides
the comprehensive capabilities for SOA security and Web services management that enterprises
increasingly require.
-
Advanced Web services standards support and interoperability
IBM recognizes that SOA must address the need to integrate heterogeneous environments both
within and outside the enterprise. The WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliance portfolio has a
long-standing history of support for key and advanced standards, including WS-Security, WS-Policy,
WS-ReliableMessaging, Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), Web Services Distributed Management
(WSDM), WS-I Profiles, WS-Addressing, eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML), Security
Assertion Markup Language (SAML), Secure Socket Layer (SSL), and proprietary single sign-on (SSO)
tokens. Additional third-party interoperability capabilities include Universal Description,
Discovery, and Integration (UDDI) registries, and such databases as Oracle and Sybase.
-
Integration across the IBM SOA Foundation for Smart SOA deployments
The XI50 has broad and deep integration across the IBM SOA foundation. Integration with
popular integrated development environments, such as the IBM Rational® portfolio, helps reduce the
time you spend in development and debugging. In addition to interoperability, the XI50 also
features deep integration with products such as WebSphere MQ, WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus,
WebSphere Message Broker, and DB2 to help process SOA transactions in a faster, more secure and
simplified way. Additionally, the XI50 enables you to take advantage of the IBM autonomic computing
self-management capabilities, creating infrastructures that require minimal intervention, which
helps lower cost of ownership and improves service availability.
IBM WebSphere DataPower XML Security Gateway XS40
The XS40 appliance provides a security-enforcement point for XML and Web services transactions,
including encryption, firewall filtering, digital signatures, schema validation, WS-Security, XML
access control, XPath, and detailed logging. The XS40 includes:
-
Centralized policy management and enforcement
The XS40's outstanding performance enables enterprises to centralize security functions in a
single drop-in device that enhances security and reduces ongoing maintenance costs. Simple firewall
and Web services proxy functionality can be configured via a Web GUI and run in minutes, or using
the power of XSLT, the XS40 can also create sophisticated security and routing rules. Combining
integration with leading policy managers, and service registries and support for such standards as
WS-Security, WS-SecurityPolicy, WS-ReliableMessaging, and WS-Policy, the XS40 is an ideal policy
enforcement and execution engine for securing next generation applications. Managed locally or
remotely, the XS40 supports SNMP, script-based configuration, and remote logging to integrate
seamlessly with leading management software.
-
XML/SOAP firewall
The XS40 filters traffic at wirespeed, based on information from protocol stack layers 2
through 7, from field-level message content and SOAP envelopes to IP address, port and hostname,
payload size, or other metadata. Filters can be predefined and automatically uploaded to change
security policies based on time of day or other triggers.
-
Field level XML security
The XS40 selectively shares information through encryption/decryption and signing/verification
of entire messages or of individual XML fields. These granular and conditional security policies
can be based on nearly any variable including content, IP address, hostname, or other user-defined
filters.
-
XML Web Services access control
The XS40 supports a variety of access control mechanisms, including XACML, Security Assertion
Markup Language (SAML), SSL, LDAP, RADIUS, and simple client/URL maps. The XS40 can control access
rights by rejecting unsigned messages and verifying signatures within SAML assertions.
-
Service virtualization
XML Web Services require companies to link partners to resources without leaking information
about their location or configuration. With the combined power of URL rewriting, high-performance
XSL transforms, and XML/SOAP routing, the XS40 can transparently map a rich set of services to
protected back-end resources with high performance.
-
Data validation
With its unique ability to perform XML Schema validation as well as message validation at
wirespeed, the XS40 ensures incoming and outgoing XML documents are legitimate and properly
structured. This protects against threats such as XML Denial of Service (XDoS) attacks, buffer
overflows, or vulnerabilities created by deliberately or inadvertently malformed XML documents.
-
SSL acceleration
The XS40 scales transport layer security by accelerating bidirectional/mutual SSL transactions
in hardware. The XS40 can be configured with multiple SSL identities functioning as client or
server, with SSL policies based on message content or metadata such as port number or HTTP header.
IBM WebSphere DataPower XML Accelerator XA35:
Can help speed common types of XML processing by offloading this processing from servers and
networks. It can perform XML parsing, XML Schema validation, XPath routing, Extensible Stylesheet
Language Transformations (XSLT), XML compression, and other essential XML processing with wirespeed
XML performance.
-
Outstanding performance: DataPower's purpose-built message processing engine can deliver wirespeed
performance for both XML to XML and XML to HTML transformations with increased throughput and
decreased latency.
-
Ease of use: The self-learning XA35 provides drop-in acceleration with virtually no changes to the
network or application software. No proprietary schemas, coding, or APIs are required to install or
manage the device, and it supports popular XML Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) to help
reduce the number of hours spent in the development and debugging of XML applications.
-
Helps reduce infrastructure costs: Unlike simple content switches that only redirect business
documents, the DataPower XML Accelerator XA35 fully parses, processes, and transforms XML with
wirespeed performance and scalability to help reduce the need for stacks of servers. The XA35 also
supports accelerated SSL processing to help further lessen the load on server software.
-
Helps cut development costs: The XA35 can enable multiple applications to leverage a single,
uniformed XML processing layer for all XML processing needs. By standardizing on high-performance
hardware appliances, enterprises can deploy sophisticated applications while helping to eliminate
unnecessary hours of application debugging and tuning for marginal performance gains.
