This course teaches the configuring and enabling of the features of IBM App Connect Enterprise 11. There are many changes done to the ACE11 compared to its previous version IBM Integration Bus (IIB10).

The configurable services in the previous versions are now part of the policy project. The integration node and the Integration server can be configured using the configuration files. Also provided the facility to override the properties for the node and the server. WebUI feature is introduced for standalone servers, the details about particular integration server can be managed separately. In earlier versions, user Trace and service Trace logs are to be reformatted so that they can be readable, but in ACE11, the trace logs are generated in readable text format.
