Abstract: In an embodiment, a data processing system comprises application workflow optimizing logic and which when executed is operable to receive first workflow data that defines a sequence of processing operations to perform on an application-layer message; rewrite the first workflow data by separation of dependent update operations to result in creating rewritten workflow data; and store the rewritten workflow data in a data repository. Application gateway logic may be operable to receive one or more packets; construct a received message from one or more payloads of the packets; classify the received message to identify a particular workflow associated with the message; apply the particular workflow, using the rewritten workflow data, to the received message to result in identifying a destination application server and creating an outgoing message; send the outgoing message to the destination application server.

Abstract: A system and method for responding to requests for processing made by an integration broker to an application having a single threaded application programmer interface, comprising receiving a request for processing; determining whether the received request is event-triggered or call-triggered; sending the request to a slave process assigned to event-triggered requests, when the request is event-triggered; and sending the request to a slave process assigned to call-triggered requests, when the request is call-triggered.

Abstract: A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for updating multiple concurrent versions of shared artifact libraries. Shared artifact libraries are associated with a consuming application for establishing shared artifact libraries upon which the consuming application has a dependency for artifacts. A snapshot of the shared artifact libraries associated with the consuming application in an active session is created in response to starting a session. The shared artifact libraries are updated in response to new versions and updates of the shared artifact libraries becoming available. Artifacts are dispensed from the shared artifact libraries to the consuming application based on the snapshot of the session.

Abstract: A business integration (BI) system receives business objects from a source application at an event partitioner. Event partitioner partitions received business objects into independent sets based on interdependent events, and allocates each independent group of business events to a separate event queue based a partitioning modulo reduction transformation of the independent sets to determine the correct event queue for storing a particular received business object. This transformation reduces the number of independent sets to a number of event groups equal to the number of allocated event queues. Events in different groups are delivered to an interchange server through the separate event queues so that they may be processed independently and in parallel, thus improving the overall performance of the interchange server, while guaranteeing that dependent events are processed in the correct serial order.

Abstract: A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program usable program code for managing a number of application integration components. A first command is issued to a first application group. The first application group includes a first subset of application integration components selected from a number of application integration components. The first command causes at least one application integration component in the first subset of application integration components to be adjusted based on a first policy. Responsive to issuing the first command, and based on a second policy, a second command is issued to a second application group. The second application group includes a second subset of application integration components selected from the number of application integration components. The second command causes at least one application integration component in the second subset of application integration components to be adjusted based on the second policy.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for facilitating dynamic modification of existing software objects defined in a strongly-typed programming language. The apparatus includes an invocation framework, an embedder, a reference component, and a development reference component. The invocation framework is configured to pass a loosely-typed base object between a source component and a destination component. The embedder embeds a business object within the base object. The business object is defined at least in part by a type definition having a set of attributes and a name value uniquely associating the type definition to the business object. The reference component references the base object such that typing requirements of the business object are not explicitly enforced in a runtime environment. The development reference component references the type definition within a development environment such that typing for the business object is fixed during source code development and deployment.
