An Intellyx Brain Candy Brief
I remember Altova from my early days in technology marketing, as you couldn’t miss their XMLSpy ads in all of the software development magazines. So when I heard they were announcing a new version of their MobileTogether development platform and adding AI assistants, I wanted to hear more.
Today, their expansive product line of around 30 products used by millions of developers comes in a form factor similar to the Adobe Creative Suite, but more DevOps-oriented. Devs, ops teams, and data engineers can buy each tool separately at low prices and install them locally on their laptop, or get a Mission Kit collection from them with all of the goods at a higher discount.
The flagship XMLSpy and DatabaseSpy are still there, only with a natural language AI for declaratively asking for traffic metrics and data conversion help, with MapForce providing a near any-to-any data mapping for ETL between sources and endpoints. There’s also RAD and UML tools, service discovery, compliance checkers, an RPA-like process flow builder, even CSS style guides.
