Mediator is a product that runs on the run-time server Integration Server. Mediator does the following:
*Mediates between consumer applications and service or API providers. Mediator receives requests from consumer applications and forwards them to providers, then returns responses from providers to consumer applications.
*Makes sure requests from and responses to consumer applications conform to policies defined in CentraSite.
*Transforms requests from and responses to consumer applications according to transformation steps defined in CentraSite.
*Uses request context or content to route requests from consumers to different service endpoints, or to load balance requests. Mediator can compute the native endpoint URL dynamically at runtime based on the incoming request parameters or the custom logic and then route the requests to that endpoint.
Mediator provide full support for versioning of SOAP and REST APIs. CentraSite allows versioning of virtual services and publishing of distinct versions to Mediator. Mediator can host multiple versions of the same service during run-time, and automatically routes requests to the appropriate version.
