    Posted Mon September 02, 2024 03:42 AM

    Here is how I structure my code in webMethods Integration Server to get a true platform that gives you high business agility.

    While you can start simple with just one package, this soon becomes a problem. Here is real-world advice how to structure your code base. This reduces complexity, makes your solution much easier to maintain, and reduces the risk of bugs. And as a special bonus, you end up with a real integration platform. All based on real-world experience.

    Nice article on WebMethods basics Christoph. We should have a discussion on best coding practices for maintainable and scalable code writing by applying integration patterns and frameworks.

    There are multiple approaches and need to factor in few things:

    • Is only one IS/MSR or multiple instances that communicate with each other?
      • is that thru Publish /Subscribe using native messaging (broker/UM), JMS  or streaming
    • are APIs to be uesd for IS to IS communication?
    • How are API/Service signature contracts to be shared?  Is that thru shared packages?
    • How are shared utilities managed?

    I have seen envrironments from a single IS instance to a large cluster with over 400+ packages overall.
