ways to intergrate IBM tools with non IBM tools(custom tools)
Accepted answer
Nilesh,
Depending on your definition of integration there are pros and cons to each. And some better than others in specific situations. But the simple list is here:
Open Services for lifecycle APIs - These are standards based web services APIs that you can use to CRU (Create, Read and Update) data. Here is a workshop as well.
RTC SDK - You can use this SDK to build extensions into RTC Jazz products. This is usually reserved for extending and enhancing functionality, but I could see scenarios where you could use this to integrate with other tools.
RTC Plain Java API - This allows you to write stand alone Java applications that integrate with RTC.
Rational Lifecycle Integration Adapters Tasktop Edition - This is a third party tool that has numerous pre-built integration adapters to a huge list of products.
This should get you started. I would like to know what products your are interested in integrating with.
