Do you ever ask yourself these questions: “Can I eliminate the redeploy phase from Tomcat’s development cycle? How can I more efficiently diagnose performance bottlenecks in my Tomcat application? How can I simplify configuring Tomcat for my application?”

Apache Tomcat users spend 160 hours per year waiting for redeploys, not to mention the time getting back into the flow of coding. They also spend quite a bit of time configuring Tomcat for deployment to production, and investigating and resolving performance and availability issues — without deep diagnostic data.

In a webinar on July 28th at 10am PT, MuleSoft and ZeroTurnaround have teamed up to provide web application developers using Tomcat with the ultimate “one-two punch” for developer productivity.

Join us for a 45-minute demo-driven webinar, where you will see how JRebel and Tcat Server can help you:

• Instantly see the effects of your code changes without having to restart Tomcat
• Discover and quickly resolve performance issues with deep diagnostic capabilities
• Visually browse and edit Tomcat configuration files

Do you have applications that rely on data or application logic in CICS/COBOL systems? Do you need to integrate those mainframe applications with the rest of your Java applications and services? Do you need an easy way to get COBOL data in and out of your mainframe environment? Do you need to safely bring high-value mainframe assets into your SOA, ESB and integration projects?

On July 14th at 10am PT,  join us for a live webinar on how Mule ESB and Mule Data Integrator allow the modernization and integration of mainframe CICS/COBOL systems.

In this 45 minute demo-driven event, Francis Upton, lead architect of Mule Data Integrator, will show how you can use Mule Data Integrator and Mule ESB to:

* Wrap a CICS/COBOL application as a web service in Mule ESB
* Use Mule ESB to integrate the COBOL service with a Java service
* Use Mule Data Integrator to transform the COBOL data to and from the Java objects
* Improve reuse and accessibility to mainframe data and logic

Last Tuesday night’s  demonstration of the MuleSoft’s Eclipse Tool Suite at the Vancouver Eclipse Demo Camp went well. I almost got Nerf-gunned for a (slight) overtime but the organizers’ mercifulness has allowed me reach the end of the demo with a running sample For those who weren’t there, here is a summary of my presentation.

The challenge I’ve set to myself for this demonstration was the following: let’s figure out what’s the total length of roadworks currently happening in the city of Vancouver. Think of it as a reality check for your tax dollars at work!

Because Vancouver exposes plenty of its data on the web, this was really just a matter of pulling the right data source and transforming it to the desired output. Read on to find how I achieved this using Mule Data Integrator and Mule IDE…

Since announcing Mule Data Integrator in November, we have seen great early adoption, with over a hundred organizations using it in development, and at least a handful who are going into production. The product is ideal for a wide variety of use cases, but one in particular has cropped up with some frequency: adding new trading partners (on-boarding) in large organizations.

Given that so many from the Mule community have been asking questions about this use case, we felt that it would make sense to do a live demo, showing how Mule Data Integrator can help dramatically simplify the on-boarding of trading partners and reduce the time to market for new customer or partner relationships.
