Congratulations IBM! webMethods is the first integration tool I have worked with in the year 2003 and still remember how concerned I was when it was acquired by software ag around 2007-2008 for mere 550mn$. I was concerned that the originality around it's integration server, especially webMethods Broker would be lost due to the acquisition and overlapping product portfolio. webMethods did give a tough fight to then BEA Weblogic (later got acquired by Oracle). I still love the way how ESB was developed with the document based subscription on webMethods Broker with its "territories" (documents are shared across brokers in territories - it's comparable to distributed Kafka brokers and topics today..but was a concept in webMethods in 2004!!)and "Gateways". They had some of the finest product documentations. Meticulously written. No doubt webMethods is still relevant in the middleware segment after 21 years!! Hope IBM preserves the originality of the suite of products under webMethods (I still have my heebijeebies thinking about the overlap with Websphere suite of products if any exists these days)😄
