| <h4>What is your role at Imola?</h4> |
| I'm a consultant, article writer, and currently, the project manager of |
| jbi4cics and jbi4corba. |
| <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>As a partner, how has your company contributed to the NetBeans |
| Project?</h4> |
| We have developed two plug-ins: one for jbi4corba and one for jbi4cics. |
| These plug-ins allow the component to be used at development/design |
| time in NetBeans SOA projects. |
| <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>Tell us about your NetBeans Day Presentation.</h4> |
| We are going to present jbi4corba and jbi4cics binding components and |
| the relative NetBeans plug-in. |
| These binding components can be used to easily integrate CICS and CORBA |
| services in a JBI (jsr208) Enterprise Service Bus. |
| <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>What's the top point that developers should know about your session?</h4> |
| Using NetBeans Enterprise platform and the jbi4corba and jbi4cics |
| plug-ins, it is very easy |
| just a matter of visual configurationto integrate CICS and CORBA |
| services. CICS is an IBM Mainframe Transaction Server very common in |
| financial institutions. |
| Corba is the standard communication protocol from OMG and very common |
| in the telecommunication industry. |
| <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>What are the benefits to the community?</h4> |
| A tangible speed-up in the development of SOA projects based on JBI and |
| OpenESB. |
| <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>What is the main message you want a developer to get after |
| attending your session?</h4> |
| Jbi4cics and Jbi4corba are ready and mature for Enterprise and can be |
| used in large SOA projects. |
| <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>Why did you submit your session to be presented at NetBeans Day? |
| </h4> |
| We think our project is a good contribution to the NetBeans enterprise |
| extension and being presented together may give more value to both. |
| <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>What features do you enjoy working with in NetBeans?</h4> |
| We appreciate that NetBeans supports subversion and Mavenour standard |
| development toolsvery well. |
| <br> |
| <br> |
| <h4>How does working in Java compare with other technologies?</h4> |
| We chose Java basically for the presence of standards, in this case |
| JBI. |
| Other platforms have their Enterprise Service Buses, or Integration |
| Brokers, but there is no real mature standard apart from JBI. SCA |
| (Service Component Architecture), an emerging standard is sometimes |
| considered a JBI competitor. From my point of view, SCA and JBI |
| complete each other. |
| <br> |

| interview?</h4> |
