To configure Map Designer to work
with the Standards Processing Engine (SPE), set up the connection
to the SPE database
and configure the test and deployment options.
Creating a project and importing maps
A project organizes maps and artifacts in Design Studio. You can create a project
for the maps and artifacts that run on the Standards Processing Engine (SPE). Import any maps that
are not created by Design Studio (such
as XSLT files and schemas) into the project.
SPE database connection
The Standards Processing Engine (SPE) database stores maps
and other artifacts. To use Design Studio to
test maps on SPE or
deploy artifacts to SPE,
you configure the URL of the database in the Design Studio Preferences. Design Studio supports multiple SPE databases, such as
a test database and a production database.
SPE database deployment options
Configure the Standards Processing Engine (SPE) deployment options
to identify and organize the artifacts that you deploy from Design Studio to the SPE database.
SPE test options
To run on the Standards Processing Engine (SPE), Sterling B2B Integrator maps and XSLT maps
require input and output files. You can configure default input and
output files to avoid supplying the file names each time you test-run
the map. You also can specify the name of a .properties file to use
when you test-run a Sterling B2B Integrator map.
SPE Logging options
Use the Design StudioStandards Processing Engine preferences to
configure the logging options that are in effect when you deploy an
artifact to SPE or
test-run a map on SPE.
