Guidance Needed for Implementing webMethods Use Cases on OpenShift

  • 1.  Guidance Needed for Implementing webMethods Use Cases on OpenShift

    Posted 9 days ago

    Hello everyone,

    I'm currently reviewing a technical proposal involving several webMethods integration flows running on OpenShift. I would really appreciate any guidance, step-by-step examples, best practices, or similar use cases that can help us structure the implementation correctly.

    Below are the three use cases exactly as defined in the scope document, so the community can help point me in the right direction.

    πŸ”Ή Use Case 1 – Certificate Orchestration (Zendesk + GitHub + Node.js)

    Process where financial institutions submit digital certificates for secure communication.

    Scope details:

    Install webMethods Integration Server on OpenShift:

    DEV: single instance

    PROD: two-node cluster

    Implement:

    Zendesk connector

    GitHub connector

    Node.js certificate handling service

    Build the main orchestration workflow for certificate processing.

    Functional end-to-end testing.

    Promotion to production.

    Technical documentation (design, deployment, operations).

    What I need from the community:

    Examples of certificate orchestration workflows in webMethods.

    Guidance or samples for integrating Zendesk and GitHub connectors.

    Best practices for using or integrating Node.js services with webMethods.

    Similar use cases you may have implemented.

    πŸ”Ή Use Case 2 – Automated CSV Report Generation and Delivery to AWS S3

    Process that extracts data from PostgreSQL, generates CSV files, and sends them to an S3 bucket.

    Scope details:

    Configure connectivity to PostgreSQL (PgSQL).

    Implement logic to generate CSV reports.

    Upload the generated files to an AWS S3 bucket.

    Configure MFT Virtual Folder + Web Client for user access.

    Testing and validation.

    Technical documentation and deployment package.

    What I need from the community:

    Examples of PostgreSQL data extraction in webMethods.

    How to dynamically generate CSV files inside Flow Services.

    Step-by-step guidance for AWS S3 integration.

    Examples of configuring MFT Virtual Folder in webMethods.

    πŸ”Ή Use Case 3 – Availability Monitoring and Alerts

    Process that receives event payloads (errors/latency) and triggers email/Teams notifications.

    Scope details:

    Create an Event Listener in webMethods (REST/webhook trigger).

    Develop Integration Flow Services to process the alert payload.

    Implement outbound notifications for:

    Email

    Microsoft Teams (webhook)

    Build outbound connectors.

    Unit testing + end-to-end testing.

    Documentation and deployment package.

    What I need from the community:

    Examples of Event Listeners (REST/webhook) in webMethods.

    Guidance on designing alert-processing Integration Flows.

    How to implement Teams + email notifications.

    Best practices for event-processing and alerting patterns.

    πŸ™ Request for assistance

    I would really appreciate:

    Step-by-step tutorials or guides

    Flow Service examples

    Similar use cases implemented on OpenShift

    Architecture recommendations

    Best practices for connectors and integration patterns

    Thank you very much in advance - any help or shared experience will be extremely valuable!
