What’s an Integration Stack?

The Integration Stack for JBoss Tools Developer Studio is a set of plugins for Eclipse that provides integration tooling for the following frameworks.

JBoss Fuse Development

  • Fuse Tooling - Tools related to integrating and developing software components that work with Apache ServiceMix, ActiveMQ and Camel - support for Fuse.

The Fuse Development tooling category has both released and early access components. Consequently, you will see it in both the release installation dialog and the early access installation dialog.

JBoss Business Process and Rules Development

  • BPEL Designer - Orchestrating your business processes.

  • BPMN2 Modeler - A graphical modeling tool which allows creation and editing of Business Process Modeling Notation diagrams using graphiti.

  • Drools - A Business Logic integration Platform which provides a unified and integrated platform for Rules, Workflow and Event Processing.

  • jBPM - A flexible Business Process Management (BPM) suite.

JBoss Data Virtualization Development

  • Modeshape - A distributed, hierarchical, transactional and consistent data store with support for queries, full-text search, events, versioning, references, and flexible and dynamic schemas. It is very fast, highly available, extremely scalable, and it is 100% open source.

  • Teiid Designer - A visual tool that enables rapid, model-driven definition, integration, management and testing of data services without programming using the Teiid runtime framework.

JBoss Integration and SOA Development

  • All of the Business Process and Rules Development plugins, plus…​

  • Fuse Apache Camel Tooling - A graphical tool for integrating software components that works with Apache ServiceMix, Apache ActiveMQ, Apache Camel and the FuseSource distributions.

  • SwitchYard - A lightweight service delivery framework providing full lifecycle support for developing, deploying, and managing service-oriented applications.

The SOA Development tooling category has both released and early access components. Consequently, you will see it in both the release install dialog and the early access install dialog.

SOA 5.x Development

  • JBoss ESB - An enterprise service bus for connecting enterprise applications and services.

  • jBPM3 - A flexible Business Process Management (BPM) Suite - JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform 5.3.x compatible version.

All of these components have been verified to work with the same dependencies as JBoss Tools 4.2 and Developer Studio 8.

What’s Been Updated?

Updates have been made to the Business Process tooling, Fuse Tooling, Data Virtualization and SwitchYard. See the Integration Stack 8.0.2 Release Notes

Released Tooling Highlights

JBoss Fuse Development Highlights

  • The Servers view now provides access to JMX when the server is running. Fuse-specific nodes are now also visible in the Servers view.

  • New and reworked server adapters have been added for Apache Karaf, Apache ServiceMix, and JBoss Fuse.

  • The previous deployment mechanism using hotfolder, JMX node and fabric8 nodes has been replaced by a publishing logic in the Servers view.

  • The Servers view now shows deployed projects and their bundle state.

  • The deploy, redeploy and undeploy operations are now all done in the Servers view.
