User’s trail - A step-wise guide

High-level steps of getting started with Develop anywhere, deploy anywhere and Integration runtime management capabilities.
  1. Understand key concepts

    Know about the key concepts on Develop Anywhere, Deploy Anywhere and Integration Runtime Management.

  2. Know your environment

    Determine whether your environment has the necessary key capabilities and explore the user interface layout, and the terminology used within the system.

  3. Begin your journey

    Understand the end-to-end process of creating and deploying your first deploy anywhere integration from start to finish. For more information, see Building deploy anywhere flow services.

  4. Learn about runtimes
    • Understand the concept of runtimes and learn how to register and manage webMethods Integration runtimes. For more information, see Integration Runtime Management documentation.
  5. Understand projects

    Explore the additional capabilities that are supported for projects such as:

    • Deploy anywhere projects: Initialize your regular projects as deploy anywhere projects and use them to save your deploy anywhere assets. For more information, see Deploy anywhere projects.
    • External repository: Save your project assets in an external repository like GitHub instead of the default repository maintained by IBM®. For more information, see Git repositories.
  6. Build integrations
    • Using packages: Orchestrate integrations by using your webMethods packages, which can be run from any integration runtime.
    • Using deploy anywhere flow services: Build new integrations on the cloud that can be deployed anywhere and orchestrate these services through workflows.
  7. Test, debug, and deploy integrations
    • Test and debug: Run your integrations to test the functions without affecting the live environment. Identify and fix any issues during the testing phase. For more information, see Debug Workflows, Debug Flow services,
    • Deploy: Publish and deploy integration projects between environments.
  8. Monitor and optimize integrations: Learn to monitor your integration assets to make sure that they are running optimally. Understand methods to optimize your integration projects. For more information, see Monitor.

  9. Monitor and manage runtimes: Understand how to monitor your integrations by using runtimes. For more information, see Integration Runtime Management documentation.
