| The most interesting feature of Eclipse is that it’s platform and language neutral. The use of a uniform IDE for collaboration also translates into savings in terms of cost and time for the customer. Similarly, one of the main drivers for SOA is interoperability between heterogeneous systems. Eclipse helps to achieve this goal from a design perspective. Eclipse-based tools aid seamless development across a variety of products at the service layer. In areas such as Business Process Management (BPM), where there is a need for prototyping models, the eclipse approach can result in highly sclable, and maintainable business models. Eclispe plug-ins can also be developed to support the definition, authoring, editing, deploying, testing, and debugging of Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) processes. Similarly, having a web service plug-in in an Eclipse environment makes it easy to create, test, debug, deploy and publish Web Services. The article is an in-depther into how you can harness the eclipse power for SOA services. more >> |
