An Enterprise Service Bus for seamless connectivity of SOA and non-SOA environments
IBM Integration Bus (IIB), previously known as WebSphere Message Broker, engages full use of the transport and connectivity options provided by WebSphere MQ. It enhances additional routing and transformation capabilities, and other functionality to implement or extend an integration solution. IB has a rich set of connectors that provide broad connectivity to a wide range of data sources, including packaged applications, files, mobile devices, messaging systems and databases.
IBM Integration Bus V9.0 produces key enhancements that enable greater visibility and insight of data as it flows through the bus. These facilitate more intelligent data processing and operational management of an integration solution and increases the value and power of both IBM BPM and ODM.
(+) What does IIB do?
- Provides built-in capabilities to invoke rules during processing in order to make intelligent routing, validation, and transformation decisions
- Simplifies and accelerates the creation of integration services in support of a BPM solution
- Provides new capabilities that allow operational awareness and control over processing traffic
- Allows application developers to quickly and easily enable applications for connectivity and configure common tasks without the need for deep integration skills.
- Includes an embedded IBM WebSphere eXtreme Scale global cache, facilitating, the building of scalable infrastructure to support growth in the demand for services
- Incorporates powerful new tools to graphically view operational performance statistics
- Delivers additional productivity aids enabling Microsoft applications to be rapidly integrated as part of a heterogeneous integration solution.
- Offers flexible integration solution provisioning across a range of physical and cloud-based deployment options.
- Provides tooling that facilitates the conversion of existing WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus assets so they can run on IBM Integration Bus
(+) Why is IIB important?
- Meet the needs of any size project by utilizing robust capabilities to address diverse integration requirements.
- Make better business decisions throughout the entire organization by providing rapid access, visibility and control over data as it flows through your business applications and systems.
- Remove the need for complex point-to-point connectivity
