TIBCO EBX Initial Setup

The initial setup can be a challenge due to the fact that there is not enough examples to model after. There isn't enough documentation to go off of. 

They gave us some templates and things to work from, and that helped those artists. We also had to dumb down some of the templates and start from almost scratch to kind of get the workflow actually working. It would be great if there were some standard items to work off of. It would be nice if there was a bigger community where you could share ideas with other customers about the product.

The deployment took a while. We were refocused three times on different aspects. Then there were multiple organizational changes, department changes, et cetera. The first production implementation took almost a year. After that, we've probably handled seven or eight subsequent releases.

We're rolling out to different groups more frequently. It's not just the branch shops. We've done some things for other teams as well. In general, it's been a year and a couple of months.

For maintenance, right now, we're down at two or three developers.

TIBCO EBX follows the simple and standard Tomcat architecture and deployment, so it is easy to set it up.

The solution can be deployed in two or three days. You can deploy the tool in a development environment within a few minutes, in less than an hour. For a production environment, the deployment phase takes two or three days.

You need a skilled admin in your organization to take care of the deployment phase of TIBCO EBX.

The solution is deployed on the cloud and on an on-premises model.

The initial installation is not very complex, however, it was not extremely straightforward either. Our SI partner did it for us and it was on time. Also after the initial installation and configuration we were happy with it overall.

The initial setup can be a bit difficult. It's not easy to configure it actually. We need some experience and configuring it right now is an issue. It's not so easy we can start using it on day one. The process is complex due to the level of customization.

The deployment process was long. It took us about three months in total. 

There is a bit of maintenance required. It's periodical. It may require patching every once in a while, for example.

The initial setup is a little complex. It's not something that users can just quickly do themselves.
