I am an integration team lead at a government owned electricity utility in New South Wales, Australia. I have developed, designed & architected multiple integration solutions ranging from asynchronous pub-sub in TIBCO BusinessWorks through to secure API drivern solutions in MuleSoft. One of these include integrating a 1990`s era Active-X based application into TIBCO BusinessWorks (spoiler alert - encapsulate the ActiveX in a a .NET web service). The solution challenges I face include protecting the security of information from both internal and external threats, very old frameworks such as ActiveX, physical distances to a vendor managed systems with low network fault tolerances, and the list goes on. In the language spectrum, I have either architected, designed or developed integration and protocol bridge solutions in .NET, Java using JaxWS, MuleSoft Talend ETL and BusinssWorks. When it comes to transport and connectivity, these include SOAP over HTTPs, REST and TIBCO Rendezvous; not to mention the various file transfer protcols offered by TIBCO MFT. ©
