IBM App Connect Professional – ze550gspl
Course #: ZE550GSPL
Duration: 3 Days
This course introduces you to IBM App Connect Professional, which is designed to simplify the delivery of capabilities that are needed for cloud and on-premise application integration.
In this course, you learn how to use the “configuration, not coding” approach for implementing and managing IBM App Connect integration solutions that link internet protocol, database, and web service endpoints. It begins with an overview of the IBM App Connect product set and deployment options. The course then covers topics such as variables and data transformation, testing project components, utility and logic activities, and working with flat files and web services.
In hands-on exercises throughout the course, you build integration solutions by using the IBM App Connect Studio to create projects that contain orchestrations. You publish these projects to the integration runtime, and then use the browser-based Web Management Console to manage and monitor execution.
The lab environment for this course uses both the Ubuntu and Windows platforms.
