In addition to rolling up all previously made fixes and certifying support for webMethods 8, TEAM Server v1.5b includes multiple customer requested features including, but not limited to,…

Expanded Optimize Support – We have re-architected the way we connect to Optimize by going directly against the analytic engines (rather then connecting via MyWebMethods). This mechanism provides a more flexible way of working with Optimize components and makes it easier for users to manage multiple Optimize instances.

Expanded MyWebMethods (MWS) Support - We’ve improved upon our earlier support for MyWebMethods Server.  We have added support for managing MWS Directory Services, MWS Data Sources, and MWS Naming Directories (for Providers, Connection Factories, and Destinations).  This expanded support provides comprehensive coverage for all critical MWS components.

More Flexible and Enhanced Security Model – We’ve made multiple enhancements to make our security implementation more flexible for our customers.  Users can now be centrally defined in MWS or an external LDAP and will be appropriately authenticated and authorized.  We’ve also expanded our role definitions so that, in addition to “developer”, “lead”, and “administrator” roles, we’ve added the “auditor” (with read/diff only) and operator (read/diff/deploy) roles.  Users can also now be selectively assigned roles for specific repositories.  For example, a user might be configured with the “developer” role when working in project A’s development repository but be assigned the “auditor” role when working in project B’s QA repository.  This is especially useful to some of our larger customers who often have people playing multiple roles across different projects.

By bundling together the functions of Version Control, Change, Config, and Release Management, CrossVista TEAM Server provides one solution for managing all aspects of the webMethods Application Lifecycle.

CrossVista Inc is pleased to announce the addition of some major new functionality.

CrossVista’s core product, TEAM Server, is an application lifecycle management solution built specifically for Software AG’s webMethods Suite. By bundling together the functions of Version Control, Change Management, Configuration Management, and Release Management, CrossVista TEAM Server provides one solution for managing all aspects of the webMethods application lifecycle.

CrossVista is scheduled to release a new Beta version of TEAM Server in November 2009. This new version will allow users to define a change request within TEAM Server, assign code and/or configuration changes to that change request during development, and then automatically promote/deploy changes assigned to that change request directly to their webMethods environments. Each change request can contain code and/or configuration changes from webMethods Integration Server, webMethods Trading Networks, webMethods Broker, webMethods Optimize, webMethods Process Models, and more.

The new functionality is embedded within CrossVista’s TEAM Server VCS plugin for webMethods Designer so developers never have to leave Designer to make use of the change request functionality. The Release Manager’s job also becomes that much easier. Because multiple developers can easily contribute changes to a specific change request in parallel, the Release Manager can easily build full (or patch) releases containing all of the modifications for that change request.

“This new functionality was driven 100% by customer input and will provide immediate benefits for our customers”, says Dan Schirf, Vice President of Sales and Business Development at CrossVista. “We’re also excited about how we can extend this functionality. With this new change request framework in place, we will look to integrate directly with industry leading change management solutions such as IBM Rational ClearQuest and Atlassian Jira. For the first time, users will be able to track a change request and tie it directly to the actual webMethods code and configuration changes that support that change request.”
