Robust Integration Architecture

Robust Integration Architecture Key Design Features Modulation Separation of protocol, message, and processing logic Simplifies maintenance Centralization of error handling & Event Flows Use of Internal Queues, Ordered Queues, and other transport services across channels Data Acquisition Data Processing Data Disposition Error Handling IQ

Robust Integration Architecture Key Design Features Performance and 24/7 up-time Reverse Verified Invocation (RVI) for access through Firewall, and message distribution across iSM servers Load balancing across multiple iSM instances and Applications Hot-Backup for ensured 24/7 uptime Data Acquisition Multiple iSM Servers Backup Server Heartbeat External Server RVI Error handling

Robust Integration Architecture Key Design Features Externalized Configuration Utilization of external property files, lookups, templates Authentication Realms Provider based implementation Externalized Monitoring and Management Integration with SNMP monitoring iWay Sentinel for Monitoring, Management and Updates Scheduled and Scripted tasks Schedule Provider with Calendar support Scripting support via services, iWay Sentinel, iWay SDK

Deployment Styles Configurations vs iWay Integration Applications

What channels are running? V1 or V2??? Deployment Styles Managed Configurations Registry dependency – all managed configs share same registry Versioning discrepancies – need to rebuild channels after archives are moved between environments Archive v1 Channels v2 What channels are running? V1 or V2??? Archive v2 Channels v2 Channels v3 Archive v1 Channels v1 Export/rebuild Double effort for moving across environments Archives: contain components such as channels, processes, etc… Packages: runtime definition such as Runtime Conflicts No disposable Test Environment

Deployment Styles iWay Integration Applications comprised of iWay Integration Applications (iIAs) iWay Integration Applications comprised of Integration Components (channels, processes, registers, properties) Deployment Template defining runtime characteristics Facilitate Team Work Dedicated Runtime No iSM Registry or Configuration dependency The low-touch, automated, scriptable iWay Deployment ANT/Maven based Scriptable via SDK

Deployment Styles iWay Integration Applications (iIAs) Test-Run process against a Test Server automatically: Builds, Deploys, Starts a dedicated runtime Executes the pFlow against the runtime Stops, Un-deploys, destroys the runtime iIA after test completion Based on default or user configured Application runtime

Deployment Styles ANT Support Default iIA build process utilizes ANT iWay Integration Applications (iIAs) ANT Support Default iIA build process utilizes ANT Ordered set of Integration Tasks are exposed Build.xml is available for management and updates

Deployment Styles Maven Support Available Option upon iIA creation iWay Integration Applications (iIAs) Maven Support Available Option upon iIA creation Each goal can be explicitly executed from command line or specified in the execution portion of the POM file Fully documented with external repository http://ishare.ibi.com/maven/plugins/iway7plugin/index.html

Deployment Styles iWay Integration Tools iWay Integration Applications (iIAs): Summary iWay Integration Tools Build and Manage iIAs (deploy, start, stop, etc..) Support for ANT/Maven and customized scripts iWay Service Manager Console Manage iIAs Monitor iIAs and its components iWay SDK Scripted & Scheduled management of iIAs Integrate into existing build systems iWay Sentinel Manage iIAs and distribute updates Monitor iIAs and its components.

iWay Software Development Kit (iSDK)

iWay SDK Scripted management of deployments and updates No need for iSM, works with existing build systems Deploy, Distribute and Manage Applications Ensures application integrity Packaged sample ANT-based build solution that can be invoked using batch script Build WAR files iWay Integration Tools SCM iSDK Runtime Build System 18

iWay SDK Sample Integration Tasks Sample ANT Tasks 19

iWay SDK Intuitive Documentation with Samples preinstalled with product 20

Source Control Management

Source Control Management iWay Integration Tools (iIT) provides Version Control by implementing Eclipse Team APIs Abstraction via Team APIs enables iWay to support various SCM systems such as SVN, ClearCase, TFS, etc… It is highly recommended for all Integration Project components in iIT be source managed from the project level Simply install SCM plug-in into iIT and connect to your repository for version control 22

Source Control Management Usage example with SVN Additional Options for Team selection Utilize Navigator View Note the Ignore List
