The real IOblend development model.
Developer Edition runs IOblend Designer and IOblend Engine on your machine and creates a local Spark development environment. Connect to the systems your development machine is authorised to reach and test IOblend against a real dataflow.
Go from install to a meaningful test.
Start with a source and business rule you already understand. The goal is to test the product against real engineering work, not a synthetic demo.
Install
Follow the operating-system installation guide before first launch.
Build
Create a source, transformation and target sink in Designer.
Test
Inspect schemas, metadata and runtime behaviour as you develop.
Productionise
Move to Enterprise Edition when the pipeline is ready for production.
Build one real pipeline. Judge IOblend there.
If you need help with installation or want to test IOblend against a production architecture, the team can help.
Developer Edition is for development, not production.
Enterprise Edition moves the execution model onto customer-controlled production Spark infrastructure.
