Integration developers have to learn only one set of skills, using one tool for many uses. WebSphere Integration Developer is the Eclipse-based tool for building SOA-based BPM and integration solutions across WebSphere Process Server, IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus and IBM WebSphere Adapters. As a result, WebSphere Integration Developer simplifies integration with rich features that accelerate the adoption of SOA by rendering existing IT assets as service components that encourage reuse and efficiency. It enables rapid assembly of business solutions by wiring reusable service components that can be discovered from multiple locations such as the WebSphere Service Registry and Repository. It also provides a component architecture that simplifies component interfaces and plug-and-play solutions.
New features in WebSphere Integration Developer V7.0
Accelerates time to value
New guided task flows: get started quicker with the new guided task flows that provide simple multi-step instructions embedded in the tool that guide the user through the process of creating new services, mediations and other common activities.
Develop solutions faster and more completely with support for additional patterns.
Support for parallel approval human workflow: provides capabilities to easily create complex parallel approval processes that can be dynamically changed.
Enhancements for iterative development with WebSphere Business Modeler:
Makes changes more quickly with the new visual compare and merge function.
Detects more changes in maps, and other elements.
Preserves and prevents overwriting of Forms, maps, and other elements created and maintained within WebSphere Business Modeler.
Preserves annotations embedded within the process diagram as sticky notes.
Simplifies the tooling experience and accelerates solution development:
Test your solution before you have completed it by leveraging the integrated test client to test partially completed modules with scaffolded services.
Enhanced mapping capabilities.
Improves sticky note support.
Support for Lotus Forms Server: leverage Web-based Forms rendered from the Lotus Forms Server in addition to the existing Lotus Forms Client for rendering capabilities.
Improves productivity: faster builds, faster deployment, smaller technology footprint, and improved problem determination.
Improved installation with enhancements to the Launchpad and installs to provide more user control over what is installed that will help optimize memory footprint:
Integrated WebSphere Business Monitor toolkit and WebSphere Business Monitor test environment.
Integrated Lotus Forms Designer V3.5.1 and Lotus Forms Server V3.5.1 for development and testing of Forms with your process flows
