IBM DataPower Gateway
• Extend the capabilities by providing a multitude of functions:
– IBM DataPower Gateway (IDG) provides gateway functionality and is a security enforcement
point. Also supports intelligent load distribution and dynamic routing via the Application
Optimization module. IDG is used for service level management and monitoring, and is
available in two form factors: 2U Rack mounted physical appliance and a Virtual appliance
running on VMWare and Citrix, and elastic cloud environments (SoftLayer and Amazon AWS)
– IBM DataPower Gateway with Integration Module extends the IDG platform supporting a
wide range of integration and message mediation and transformation protocols, including
mainframe integration and enablement. The Integration Option is available for both physical
and virtual form factors.
– IBM DataPower Gateway with the ISAM Module IBM Security Access Manager for
DataPower is a new access management software module for IBM DataPower Gateways that
provides web access management and strong authentication enforcement for mobile
workloads integrated into the DataPower platform.
– IBM DataPower Gateway with Business to Business (B2B) Module provides a high-
throughput, secure entry point at the edge for B2B traffic into enterprises. The B2B options
build on the capabilities of IDG, offering partner profile management, and inter-enterprise
messaging and document support. The B2B option is available in both physical appliance and
virtual form factors
NOTE: Other modules are: Application Optimization (routing and load balancing);

Summary
IBM DataPower Gateway provides these
benefits for security and integration needs
within an enterprise:
• Ease of Use: Solves complex security and integration
challenges in a secure, easy to consume and extremely low
TCO network device. DataPower appliances are configuration
driven not program driven which simplifies deployment
• Performance: DataPower is a network device that operates at
wire speed. Greater processing power is realized with every
new firmware release. This is even more critical with the
advent of mobile.
• Flexibility: Secure, integrate, bridge and version applications
without application modification
• Reduce Time to Market: Dramatically decrease the “time to
deploy” in your environment. Being a configuration-driven
platform, most deployments are “uncrate, rack, configure and
deploy”
• Lower TCO: Customers’ own data has shown that DataPower
can be 7X-8X less expensive to operate in the data center
than traditional alternatives.
