TIBCO AutoMediate Command-Line Tool

TIBCO AutoMediate Command Line is an independent command-line tool that enables you to quickly on-ramp a large number of existing services, without having to use TIBCO Business Studio, the Mediation Flow Editor, or the Composite Editor to build the necessary design-time components.

The AutoMediate Command Line tool uses existing services as input, specified in a concrete WSDL, to create a fully functional composite application with pass-through mediation capabilities. The tool generates a deployment artifact archive that you can deploy into the runtime environment as the first step in establishing an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB).

By establishing an ESB pattern using the AutoMediate Command Line tool and ActiveMatrix, you virtualize existing provided or consumed services so that they become location-transparent and more adaptable to change.

  • Virtualizing provided services hides the location of service providers, helping to avoid interrupting clients that are using the services.
  • Virtualizing consumed services hides the details of how the services are provided, helping to avoid interrupting logic that depends on the services.

The AutoMediate Command Line tool builds SOA projects that contain these components.

  • A pass-through mediation flow.
  • A composite that contains the mediation component wired to services and references, depending on the number of ports specified in the concrete WSDL.
  • The deployment artifact file for the generated composite application.

You can save these components in your source control system, then add mediation capabilities — for example routing, transformation, and validation — whenever changes are necessary.
