IBM Software Group 2 Tivoli Directory Integrator A lightweight - but extremely powerful - integration toolkit Rapidly build connections between data sources Unified framework for multiple integration tasks Typical use case: Migration and maintenance of “attribute relationships” across data sources Files to databases and directories Synchronizing data stores (LDAP, RDBMS, Notes, mail, etc.) Using and responding to network protocols Accessing Java APIs (IBM, 3rd party and custom) Available both stand-alone and bundled

IBM Software Group 3 On Demand Integration (ODIN) Installs in minutes Resource footprint is tiny Can piggyback on existing servers Solution and component reusability Leverage existing assets and community expertise No prototype throw-away POC/POT hardened to make production solution Migrate from development to deployment quickly Unparalleled speed of deployment Iterative build-test-refine cycles Facilitates “what-if” exploratory methodology IBM Software Group

4 Rapid Integration Deployment (RID) Two parts: IDE & Runtime Server Config Editor IDE for creating, testing & maintaining solutions Runtime Server for deploying solutions Both written in Java (platform agnostic) IBM Software Group

5 Kernel provides a RID framework with: - automated behavior - arbitrary depth of customization - housekeeping: > log-files, tracing > error handling > startup parameters > management interface/API... Components create level playing field by abstracting away the details of: - transports - APIs - protocols - data/file formats Kernel/Component architecture
