App Connect Enterprise (ACE) Integration and API Development

In the modern enterprise landscape, connecting disparate systems and data formats is crucial for seamless operations. This course guides you through the fundamentals of enterprise application integration using App Connect Enterprise (ACE) and Integration Bus (IIB). By working through this written guide, you will transition from understanding basic service-oriented architecture (SOA) concepts to designing and implementing your own robust message flows. You will master data transformation, service connectivity, and modern API design patterns without needing complex coding experience. What you'll learn: - Understand the core principles of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and enterprise service bus patterns - Build efficient message flows to route and transform data between heterogeneous systems - Apply ESQL (Extended Structured Query Language) and mapping nodes to manipulate message payloads - Configure HTTP and RESTful APIs using modern OpenAPI specifications within integration flows - Troubleshoot and debug message flows to ensure reliable data delivery and error handling - Practice modern integration workflows, including parsing JSON and XML formats for web services You will start with the fundamental terminology of enterprise integration, understanding how messages flow through nodes. From there, you will progress to practical message flow design, data transformation logic, and deploying your integration solutions to the runtime environment. This course is designed for beginner integration developers, system administrators, and software engineers looking to learn App Connect Enterprise from scratch. No prior experience with integration middleware or message brokers is required. Start reading today to build the foundational skills needed for enterprise-level application integration.
