“Costly product but pretty good at what is offers”

3.0
Oct 10, 2024
The application helps in connecting different applications with each other. The development path is very similar to legacy programming language. Has great monitoring capabilities. IBM provides decent customer support too. The major issue here is that it is pricy compared to other products in the market.

IBM App Connect Likes & Dislikes

Like

A large number of nodes and connectors exist to cover the integration with any backend system regardless of the language, protocol and interface of that system. The ease of integration is the reason why the projects are delivered in a fast manner.

Like

Straightforward way to develop interfaces on it Great monitoring solutions Can implement CI/CD capabilities for it Modern looking UI

Like

Integration Connectors

Dislike

I would like to see integration between the APP Connect toolkit and AI. esql does not have all capabilities and the usage of java compute node is needed in this case. graphical map is limited and in this case need to sometimes move to java.

Dislike

The cost of the product too high compared to the other providers of similar technologies

Dislike

I had a difficult time finding a solid recommendation against using logs in the console pod OCP for ACE, but rather ELK.
