Overall Satisfaction with TIBCO BusinessWorks

We use BusinessWorks to transform bus transmitter data from buses and analyse metrics like ETA , stop identification, number of passengers boarding and alighting. This is used by one department.

Other problems addressed are off-route identification, passenger count per bus,

Pros

  • Good tool with useful built-in logic which saves a lot of time
  • It has its own messaging systems such as EMS and AS
  • Easy problem management/identification. TIBCO support is very helpful
  • Migration/upgrade of software is easy.

Cons

  • Big data parsing takes too much time when implemented in JAVA. Example : JsontoXML parsing
  • SFTP in TIBCO BusinessWorks has some issues: Delete doesn't work and timeout can not be set as global variable, and sometimes consecutive sftp connections also cause process hanging.
  • Active Space connection set as secured channel doesn't allow global variable for some parameters
  • This has a good ROI.
TIBCO BusinessWorks is more user friendly compared to other tools
This is well suited as a middleware for communicating with multiple platforms.
