What does IBM Rational Business Developer do?
IBM® Rational® Business Developer provides built-in service constructs and a facility for service generation, allowing business-oriented developers to create service-oriented architecture (SOA) applications without extensive training. It creates Enterprise Generation Language (EGL) services, automates generation of web services from EGL and deploys EGL to IBM CICS® servers, IBM IMS™ (Information Management System) and the IBM i platform. It allows developers to leverage existing development skills by working within the familiar Eclipse-based environment.
Benefits
Oriented for DevOps
Use or create configurations of coding rules for EGL source code, and run the configurations to check the source code for consistency with the rules.

Develop, test, debug and deploy hybrid mobile applications with the Cordova library and toolset.
Offers a rich user interface
Use the DojoUploader widget to upload files from client side to the server, and the maxHeight property for the DojoFilteringSelect widget to specify the max height of its dropdown view.
Provides an impact analysis API
