Jitterbit 3.0 is a slick data integration suite that makes quick work of piping together disparate data sources and applications. Jitterbit 3.0 is available in a freely downloadable, open-source licensed community edition, which can serve well for small integration projects. The product is also available in a subscription-based version that adds features for managing larger projects. Check out this slide gallery below for a look at Jitterbit 3.0 in action, and be sure to read eWEEK Labs' full review here.

I could set up e-mail messages and trigger them at any point in my integration operations.

Jitterbit Workflow

The Jitterbit client provides graphical representations of its integration operations.

Scheduling

After assembling my integration operations, I could schedule them to run from the Jitterbit server.

Run Times

After setting up a schedule, I confirmed the times that my operation would run.

New Operation

Kicking off a new integration operation starts with a dummy diagram to fill out.

Permissions

I used Jitterbit 3.0 Enterprise MX to create users and groups, and to parcel out certain access rights to my project.

Source Structure

I had to specify the structure of my fixed-width text file manually.

Data Mapping

With my data structure defined, I set out to map the fields from my text file source to my database target.

Web Services

I could tap a Web service as a source by providing the service's WSDL file.
