Abstract: Certain example embodiments relate to techniques for debugging and/or introspecting an integration deployed in a distributed computing environment. The integration includes operations performable responsive to receipt of instructions from an orchestrating system by public interfaces of computing systems in the distributed computing environment. The orchestrating system is remote from the computing systems. An inverse operation for at least some of the performable operations in the integration is identified. The inverse operations also are performable responsive to receipt of instructions from the orchestrating system by the public interfaces of the computing systems of the distributed computing environment. Each inverse operation reveals, upon its performance, an effect of one or more associated performable operations.

Abstract: A method and system for staging in a cloud environment defines a default stage for integration flows. An integration flow is defined by (a) stages including (i) a live stage to follow the default stage, (ii) additional stages between the default and live stages, and (b) endpoint definitions for the live and additional stages. In response to an instruction to promote the integration flow, the integration flow is load balanced by allocating each stage to execution environment(s). Then, the integration flow is run in the execution environment(s). The load balancing includes, for each stage, (i) retrieving a list of execution environments which are available for execution of stages, (ii) selecting execution environment(s) on which to execute the stage and updating the list of available execution environments to indicate that the selected execution environment(s) is allocated, and (iii) storing the selected execution environment(s) as specific to the stage.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a method for MapReducing the processing of an Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) document (1, the method comprising the following steps: a. mapping the EDI document (1) into a plurality of intermediate documents (10, 11); b. processing the intermediate documents (10, 11) to produce a plurality of intermediate results (20-23); c. reducing the plurality of intermediate results (20-23) to produce a plurality of reduced intermediate results (30, 31); and d. reducing the reduced intermediate results (30, 31) to produce a final result (2) representing the processed EDI document (1).
