Creating mediation modules

A mediation module is a business integration project that is used for development, version management, organizing resources, and deployment to the runtime environment. It contains flows that intercept and modify messages between service consumers (exports) and service providers (imports). Mediation modules can be deployed to the WebSphere® ESB or the IBM® Business Process Manager.
