visualize your policies

Vordel Policy Studio is a powerful and intuitive graphical policy development environment for creating simple to very complex policies. Policy Studio lets developers work in the familiar Eclipse integrated development environment. Policy Studio makes it simple to configure, customize, and extend the Vordel Application Gateway to meet even the most complex requirements.

Have you ever had to reverse engineer, debug, or update a policy built by someone else, or even one you built a while ago? While wizards can simplify initial policy development, policy visualization is required for on-going policy maintenance. Vordel Policy Studio's visual development environment shortens deployment efforts and simplifies on-going policy maintenance and extension.

Intuitive and Powerful Circuit Metaphor

Vordel Policy Studio lets developers build policies using an extremely flexible and powerful Circuit metaphor. Policies consist of Filters linked by Circuits. Filters are building blocks that perform specific integration, transformation, logical, or security tasks. Circuits link the Filters to orchestrate discrete tasks into a Policy. Vordel ships over 120 pre-built Filter and Policies covering the most common usages scenarios, third party technologies , and open standards.

Drag-and-Drop

Vordel Policy Studio lets developers build policies and integrations using a graphical drag and drop interface.
Building a policy is a simple 3-step process:

1. Drag Filters and Policies from the library to the work area
2. Drag links to connect Filters and Policies in the work area
3. Enter configurations on the Filters' property sheets

Visualize Your Policies

Vordel's flow-chart representation of Policies makes it extremely simple to visualize and debug policies. Other products make you work with complex sequential nested logics to develop and debug policies. Configuration wizards do not help with on-going debugging, optimization, and extension. With Vordel's graphical policy representation, developers do not need to resort to mental visualization or old-fashioned pen and paper flow charting.
