Hi all,
Firstly, I am new to both webFocus and iWay world, please forgive any ignorance. I am following the documents provided by the information builders. But i have a doubt.

As in webfocus we have DMC(Data Management Console) for doing ETL but i am not getting what is the use of iway Service Manager.

What is the use of iWay service manager in WebFocus, are they dependent on each other and what are all the scenario to use it.

Can anybody help me out or some info on the process how both are working.

Any assistance will be appreciated.

You might get a better answer than this if you posted in the iWay Forum. The Data Management Console also lies more on the iWay side of the house than the WF side. In a nutshell, the service manager is for configuring/managing service on an iway server to handle messaging and other services used by standard interfaces. These could be used in an ETL process, depending on the purpose of that process, but in many instances, the two products won't cross paths. I guess that may be a matter of opinion - an iWay-heavy environment may make more use of some of these tools than we currently do.

There is a complete document on the iWay Service Manager is you need additional information. Here's the opening blurb from that doc:

iWay Service Manager (iSM) is an
Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) product that
enables you to create, compose, and
manage services – whether deployed as
Web services or services accessible via
other commonly-used and industry
standard interfaces. iSM lays the
foundation for a quickly deployable and
easily maintainable Service-Oriented
Architecture (SOA) or Event-Driven
Architecture (EDA) for your enterprise.

Hi Darin,

Thanks for your info. I will go through the iSM doc for more info.

Cheers,
