DataPower Product Portfolio

The over-all move towards a consumer-centric economy is provoking a digital reinvention as IT leaders and business at organizations deliver innovative services and application programming interfaces (APIs). During this reinvention, infrastructure and network topology must be robust and ready for change, and present workloads must remain secure and not impacted adversely.

Purpose-Built Multi-Channel Gateway

The advent and explosion of Web services and Extensible Markup Language (XML) has seen a surge in the middleware infrastructure for support. An important component in this middleware architecture is the enterprise service bus (ESB). It is a collection of runtime components that offers service intermediation such as routing, management, security, and other functions.

While XML and SOAP enable a rich application-aware communication, their development in this space has been riddled by three key challenges:

• The size and complications of traditional middleware product installations has increased installation and maintenance costs of service-oriented architecture (SOA) deployments and reduced the overall solution usability
• The text-based, application-centric processing demands placed on middleware infrastructures have negatively affected overall system performance.
• The new genre of application-awareness has equally led to security attacks and exposures that use the architecture of middleware components.

DataPower SOA appliances address these challenges with the creation of specialized consumable SOA appliances that redefine the boundaries of middleware.
It provides potent capabilities for a wide range of enterprise needs that includes:

• Security
• Multi-Protocol Bridging
• Message Content Transformation
• Message Routing
• Policy Enforcement
• Monitoring and Logging

The flexibility of the device offers great benefits at a reduced cost of time and effort because of the configuration-driven (rather than code-driven) method of implementation offered. This kind of a flexible framework lets an enterprise deploy a device in scenarios that require interoperability with a wide range of enterprise assets, such as:

• Authentication systems
• Databases
• Mainframe applications
• Diverse message transport systems
• Web service applications
• Web sites

Simplify, accelerate, and enhance the security capabilities of your XML and Web services deployments, and extend the capabilities of your service oriented architecture (SOA) infrastructure with IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances.
