IBM WebSphere Transformation Extender (WTX)


Its a dedicated data transformation engine for app integration. It’s being used in organizations around the world. A transformation engine accepts FILE docs or electronic messages as inputs, parsed them using data dictionary like definitions & transforms them into one or more o/p messages.

It can convert all most any formatted content and does this without any coding/scripting by developer. WTX is a family of products and has editions tailored to ESB, BPM and B2B products.

How does it connect to existing applications?
WTX has local file system support by default. This helps for testing transformations thoroughly before moving to the connectivity phase.

How does WTX aid application reuse?
For example Industry Standards, they get updated usually one/twice a year. As organizations are required to follow the standards so the rules are coded in to the apps. You can end up in spending so much time and money on maintenance and not on new projects. WTX protects apps from change and allow them to participate in new projects.
