Nagasaikiran Kesana - PeerSpot reviewer
Fast, easy to use, and useful for integration purposes
In the initial stage, I used only business processes to build code. As I used the product more and more, I learned that we could monitor, perform support activities, and install and upgrade servers. We can learn how to manage the clients to get business. We must get into a call with customers and get their requirements. We must pass all the test cases, both positive and negative. We need to manage our team as well. We use various protocols for data security, like SFTP, FTP, and HTTP. We follow the security levels based on the customer’s requirements. We encrypt the file, and the customers decrypt it using the public and private keys we provide. Customers who need high security opt for HTTP certificates and AS2. I have also worked on AWS and Azure to pass files to the buckets. I also work on single sign-on authentication. External users can access our dashboard with a few details. For example, if our customers need to see whether a file is transferred from our end, they can easily log in to the details and monitor it. They can also perform health checks. I will recommend the tool to others. People who want to use the tool must not do anything blindly. They must analyze, learn the concept, and understand the purpose of the tool. There are other products in the market, like MuleSoft, that have the same functionality. We must understand why we are using IBM B2B Integrator. We must gather some information. I take some introductory classes for the new joiners in my organization. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

It can be integrated with SWIFT, ISO, supply chain, healthcare, Inusrance, logistics and ecommerce standards.
The product has all capabilities that is required for conversion/translation that can run in distributed environment. One thing, missing is marketing and awareness among the industry to use this product. IBM should bring awareness and promote this product across various domains and key industry players. Create Demo or animation video where this product has been implemented and the benefits it has brought in. I would like to see this product where ever there is a conversion and integration required between 2 different applications. This is one product which can be used in all Domain verticals, be it Banking, Healthcare, Logistics, Insurance, ecommerce, airlines etc... If we can bring in the standard libraries/classes available in Java, it would be great. I would like to see this product wherever there is a conversion and integration required between two different applications. Somehow, marketing is missing this aspect of this product.
