Using the Integration Flow Designer

When you use the Integration Flow Designer to create systems from collections of maps, you will typically have maps already created and ready to use. However, using the Integration Flow Designer, you can create placeholder maps called pseudo maps. You can add input and output cards to these pseudo maps and create source maps as you move forward with your design.

For each system, you can select a server and choose the execution mode: Launcher or Command. If you are using the Launcher, you must generate a Launcher system file (.msl). The .msl file is the only file that the Launcher recognizes. If you are using the Command Server, you can generate text command files.

When you select a server for the system, the system is called an executable system. For each executable system, you can create and run deploy scripts that automate the process of generating and deploying a system to a different server.

After you generate an .msl file, you are ready to run the system using the Launcher.
