LogicBlaze FUSE Offers Eclipse Based Integrated Development Environment

LogicBlaze, a provider of open source solutions for Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and business integration, has wheeled out the LogicBlaze FUSE Development Environment. Based on the Eclipse Web Tools Platform (WTP), the FUSE Development Environment is an integrated development environment (IDE) that provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for developers and architects to easily design integration projects that comprise standard Java Business Integration (JBI) components.

The LogicBlaze FUSE Development Environment offers enterprises capabilities that allow for adoption of LogicBlaze FUSE, the freely available, open source SOA platform.

"Open source projects have characteristically lacked easy-to-learn graphical tools, which has been a barrier in the adoption of open source based SOA and business integration solutions in the enterprise," said Alex Fletcher, founder and lead analyst, Entiva Group.

"The LogicBlaze FUSE Development Environment increases the number of developers that can contribute to the design and deployment of SOA on the LogicBlaze FUSE platform," said Rob Davies, vice president of product marketing, LogicBlaze.

According to the company, key features of the FUSE Development Environment include:

• Graphical User Interface
• Configuration and Deployment Control
• Automatic Code Generation
• Debugging
• Management Console Integration
• BPEL Orchestration Processes
