Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to an improved technique for preemptive client application request processing based on observed use access patterns and/or models. The system includes a framework engine operable to trace sequences of requests to one or more service provider applications, including which particular client requests are likely to be followed by other particular client requests for each service. Based on the resulting traces, the framework can determine the probability of a particular request B following another particular request A. When request A is retrieved from the service provider application, and when the probability is high enough (e.g. >50%) that request B will follow request A in the sequence of requests, the framework is operable to simulate request B in a background process and provide a response to request B from a local memory storage.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products providing an integrated development environment for client/server environments. One computer-implemented method includes reading a derived business application data model (BADM) associated with a business application into an integrated development environment (IDE), defining a client application data model (CADM) for a client application, defining at least one data mapping rule (DMR) to map at least data translations between the BADM and the CADM, developing the client application based upon at least the CADM, developing at least one web service based upon the BADM, CADM, and the at least one DMR, generating the client application and the at least one web service, and deploying the client application, the at least one web service, and the at least one DMR.

Abstract: An application programming interface (API) consumption development environment (CDE) is integrated with an API administration component and a determination is made whether an existing API conforms to application development requirements. A desired API is defined including test data, and the desired API and test data is forwarded to an API developer as a development request. The API CDE is integrated with the API administration component. A developed API is deployed to an API provider creating an integration testing deployment, and the API administration component is notified of the integration testing deployment. The developed API is deployed to an API provider productive for productive use.

Abstract: Techniques for using a social media integration platform include receiving a request from a business system to interact with a social media system executing on a social media platform; integrating, using the social media integration platform, the request between the business system and the social media system by translating the request from the business system to a social media request compliant with the social media platform, wherein the social media integration platform is configured to translate requests between at least one type of business system and a plurality of different types of social media platforms; and sending the social media request to the social media system.

Abstract: A method includes: providing a composition engine as a service configured to receive requests from multiple service consumers using any of multiple service consumer protocols; receiving a first request in the composition engine as a service conforming to a service consumer protocol from a service consumer operated by a customer; generating a second request to each of one or more provider systems, the second request conforming to a provider system protocol, the composition engine as a service configured to generate requests conforming to any of multiple provider system protocols; receiving, by the composition engine as a service, information from the provider system, and adapting the received information to conform to the service consumer protocol; and exposing, by the composition engine as a service, a web service that makes the adapted information available to the service consumer.
