IBM Rational Business Developer Extension V7.0
UML (Unified Modeling Language) to EGL (Enterprise Generation Language) transformations (using a combination of Rational Business Developer Extension and Rational Software Architect) allow you to model complex applications graphically. In addition, they enable you to implement EGL services or fully CRUD (create, read, update, and delete)- capable applications with no manual coding. This increases productivity and reduces errors.

From model to code and back again with the Rational Software Delivery
Platform, Part 1: Create, build, fuse, and design UML 2.1 models
IBM's Rational Software Delivery Platform provides a completely
customizable, UML 2.1-based visual modeling and design tool that enables architects,
systems analysts, designers and others in the development process to clearly
document and communicate processes, flows, and designs. Rational Software Modeler,
Rational Systems Developer, and Rational Software Architect also integrate with other tools (such as WebSphere
Business Modeler and Rational Testing products) to support true team-wide
development. This series walks you through some of the UML 2.1 modeling capabilities
of Rational Software Modeler, Rational Systems Developer, and Rational Software Architect. In this tutorial, you
learn how to create a UML 2.1 modeling project, build UML models, fuse models, and
apply a design pattern to a model using Rational Software Modeler.

Using RSA for EMF development
Developing EMF models is typically limited to XML Schema, IBM Rational Rose, Java source, or EMF Ecore. IBM Rational Software Architect (RSA) enables many application development roles to fully utilize the benefits of UML modeling in harmony with other business application development tools. Combining RSA and EMF gives both commercial and open source developers a powerful tool.

Understanding database access methods in EGL
A typical enterprise application stores information in a relational database such as IBM DB2. The Enterprise
Generation Language (EGL) provides powerful mechanisms to help develop and deploy such applications. EGL is a high-level programming language that lets you write enterprise-level applications while focusing on the business logic and requirements rather than on complexities of the underlying technology. A generated EGL application can be a stand-alone application running on a platform, or a Web application running under a Web application server such as IBM WebSphere Application Server.
