WSO2 Developer Studio has the following key features:
| Feature | Description |
|---|
| Supports the Edit, Build, Debug, Deploy Cycle for Applications on WSO2 Products | - Distributes as a standalone Eclipse-based product or extension bundles for Eclipse
- Support for editing most type of deployable artifacts
- Integrates to Maven for building
- Run test servers inside Eclipse and do source level debugging for applications that consist of multiple artifact types
|
| Support for Developing Apache Tomcat, Apache Axis2, Axis CXF, Apache Synapse and Apache Ode Applications | - Edit, build, debug, deploy Tomcat webapps, Axis2 or CXF services, RESTful services, Synapse mediation, and ODE processes
- Optionally deploy to WSO2 products for greater ease of use
- Uses widely used popular Eclipse plugins
|
| Supports Integration of Cloud Services | - Foundation for both cloud-to-cloud and cloud-to-enterprise integrations
- Combines multiple operations from multiple connectors along request, response, and error paths.
- Combines with regular mediators in a mediation flow to fine-tune business logic processing

|
| Supported Artifact Types | |
| Easily Build Composite Applications | - Supports writing enterprise applications that consist of any collection of above artifacts as a single Composit Application aRchive (CAR)
- Composit Application Projects aggregate collection of Eclipse projects representing the artifacts into a “C-App” distribution project
- C-App project Maven root POM includes all artifacts and uses WSO2 Maven CAR Plugin to assemble to deployable CAR artifact
- CAR artifacts have application topology concept to manage deployment into different server clusters based on server roles
|
| Supports Direct Deployment to Local and Remote WSO2 Servers | |
