Cast Iron Integration Appliance Configuration

Description

This 3-day instructor-led course introduces students to the Cast Iron Integration Appliance. The course teaches students how to use the 'configuration, not coding' approach to implement and manage Cast Iron integration solutions linking internet protocol, database, and web service endpoints.

In extensive hands-on exercises, students work individually or in small teams to build integration solutions, using the Cast Iron Design Studio to create projects containing orchestrations. These projects are then published to the integration appliance, where the browser-based Web Management Console is used to manage and monitor execution.

Objectives

Students should be able to configure and manage orchestrations that:
•    Receive data from, and deliver data to, the most commonly used endpoints, including:
o    File servers
o    Web servers (via HTTP or by using web services)
o    eMail servers
o    Database management systems
•    Transform data
•    Implement business logic

Participants

This course is for application integrators, systems engineers, and business analysts participating in the development of integration solutions based on the Cast Iron Integration Appliance.
