WebSphere® DataPower® XC10 Appliance has been tested for interoperability with other IBM® products.
WebSphere Application Server is required to implement the HTTP session and dynamic cache data grid scenarios. For more information about the specific releases of WebSphere Application Server that are required, see System requirements.
You can use WebSphere DataPower XC10 Appliance as a side cache with the WebSphere DataPower Integration Appliance XI50. The REST gateway makes this integration possible by allowing non-Java-based clients to access simple data grids with a set of HTTP-based operations. For more information about the REST gateway, see Developing data grid applications with the REST gateway. For information and a sample application that demonstrates the integration between WebSphere DataPower XC10 Appliance and WebSphere DataPower Integration Appliance XI50, see WebSphere DataPower Integration Appliance XI50, XI50B, and XI52, Version 5.0.0 : XC10 integration.
You can persist HTTP sessions from WebSphere Portal into a data grid on the appliance. For more information about creating this configuration, see Configuring HTTP session manager with WebSphere Portal. In addition, IBM Web Content Manager in IBM WebSphere Portal can use dynamic cache instances to store rendered content that is retrieved from Web Content Manager when advanced caching is enabled. WebSphere DataPower XC10 Appliance caching appliance offers an implementation of dynamic cache that stores cached content in an elastic data grid instead of using the default dynamic cache implementation.
