IBM Integration Bus v10 Application Development I:Course ContentBy Yuvaraj C Panneerselvam1. COURSE OVERVIEWAs part of this course, you learn how to use IBM Integration Bus to develop, deploy, and support platformindependent message flow applications. These applications use various messaging topologies to transportmessages between service requesters and service providers, and also allow the messages to be routed,transformed, and enriched during processing.The course explores message flow problem determination, with an emphasis on identifying and recoveringfrom errors in message flows. You learn how to construct message flows that use extended StructuredQuery Language (ESQL), Java, and the IBM Graphical Data Mapping editor to transform messages. Thecourse also explores how to control the flow of messages by using various message processing nodes, andhow to use databases and maps to transform and enrich messages during processing.Throughout the course, hands-on lab exercises allow you to practice the skills and concepts that arepresented in the lectures. The hands-on labs cover topics such as creating and testing message flows,message modeling, problem determination, and error handling.2. PRODUCT VERSIONIBM Integration Bus version 103.
