IBM App Connect early eXperience 2025
Because at the core, it’s all about the community.
Last week in Hursley? No downtime. No fluff. Just pure, focused chaos, in the best possible way.
For those not in the loop, I’m referring to the IBM App Connect Early Experience event. THE place to be if you like, use, or know about IBM App Connect. The event brought the usual suspects together again: integration nerds, product heavyweights, and a suspicious number of caffeine-dependent engineers. If you weren’t there, this post won’t give you FOMO, it’ll give you instructions for next year. Pack your bag early.
ACE in the Spotlight
We got our hands dirty with ACE 13.0.3.0, live in labs, dissected in sessions, challenged in conversations. This wasn’t just a “what’s new” tour. It was “here’s the state of the product, now tell us what’s wrong with it.”
Then came 13.0.4.0, hot from the oven. Too new for deep labs, but packed with things that made people perk up. A few teaser demos, some quick showcases, and yes, you’ll want to start using it. Soon. Actually, stop reading and download it. Now.
