Developing Integration Projects with WSO2EI Tooling

In the last chapter, we kept up-to-date with Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), the original problem that gave birth to SOA, and the benefits of SOA. Additionally, we learned how to build our SOA infrastructure using WSO2 products, and, more concretely, using WSO2 EI 6.0.0.

In this chapter, we will introduce WSO2 Enterprise Integrator Tooling. This is an Eclipse-based IDE and we will use it to develop our services, as well as to build the deployable artifacts. The topics we will cover are as follows:

Installing and running WSO2EI Tooling
Creating carbon projects
Debugging applications
Data mappings

WSO2EI Tooling is a single tool used to develop our entire application, including artifacts from any of the components that comprise WSO2EI.

WSO2EI Tooling is based on Eclipse IDE for Java developers, also called Mars 2.

We can...

Key benefits

? Design, create, and publish services in the WSO2 technology

? Integrate the WSO2 Enterprise Integrator with other components and servers

• Log and test deployed services

Description

WSO2 Enterprise Integrator brings together the most powerful servers provided by the WSO2 company for your SOA infrastructure. As an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), WSO2 Enterprise Integrator provides greater flexibility and agility to meet growing enterprise demands, whereas, as a Data Services Server (DSS), it provides an easy-to-use platform for integrating data stores, creating composite views across different data sources, and hosting data services. Using real-world scenarios, this book helps you build a solid foundation in developing enterprise applications with powerful data integration capabilities using the WSO2 servers. The book gets you started by brushing up your knowledge about SOA architecture and how it can be implemented through WSO2. It will help build your expertise with the core concepts of ESB such as building proxies, sequences, endpoints, and how to work with these in WSO2. Going further, you will also get well-acquainted with DSS data service concepts such as configuring data services, tasks, events, testing, and much more. The book will also cover API management techniques. Along with ESB and DSS, you will also learn about business process servers, the rules server and other components that together provide the control and robustness your enterprise applications will need. With practical use cases, the book covers typical daily scenarios you will come across while using these servers to give you hands-on experience.
