IBM® Integration Designer provides patterns that accelerate the development of a service gateway. Each pattern includes a wizard that generates a service gateway implementation, which is based on a set of parameters you provide. You can make updates to the generated implementation to complete your service gateway.

Patterns can be accessed through IBM Integration Designer Patterns Explorer, where you can create an integration solution for common scenarios. The following service gateway patterns are available:
  • Proxy gateway pattern
  • Static gateway pattern
  • Dynamic service gateway

Once a pattern has been selected, a pattern specification view opens which provides documentation about the pattern and its use. Click Create New Instance, which opens a pattern configuration view. Specify the parameters used to generate the pattern, as shown in Figure 2.

Once the parameters have been entered, click the Generate button which creates the SCA module artifacts and provides a summary of information about the generated module as shown in Figure 3.
