1.1.5 How Is LANSA Composer different to LANSA Integrator?

LANSA Integrator is a developer toolkit that enables integration of application-to-application (A2A) and business-to-business (B2B) transactions through XML and Java services. Most uses of LANSA Integrator require a developer to write program code to access the integration services.

LANSA Composer uses LANSA Integrator services.

While performing very similar processes, LANSA Composer is designed for use by business analysts without the need to employ programming skills. A business analyst, with no programming skills, can compose business processes consisting of combinations of standard transport, transformations and other activities.

Many of the supplied Activities (including supplied transport activities) and the run-time execution of Transformation Maps make use of LANSA Integrator services but, using Composer, no program code is required to take advantage of them.

LANSA Integrator is designed to handle high-volume, high-throughput scenarios, so a custom application using LANSA Integrator services may offer the best performance characteristics for that type of application.
