ISO20022 is number one standard in the financial industry, it is time to implement support for it too!
-
Hello Alex,
Interested in this one because ISO20022 is part of the ebXML ecosystem.
ISO appears to publish an Eclipse library/model on a regular basis (http://www.iso20022.org/e_dictionary.page? refers).
What support are you after? Along the lines of that for NIEM?
-
Yes, support for NIEM is a good example. I have had no need to use NIEM in my projects yet, but based on the videos published by Sparx Systems it looks like the recent versions of EA allow to manage full project lifecycle starting from importing of NIEM published repository and then progressing all the way to generating XML schemas through modelling and model transformations in Sparx EA. I think the level of adoption of ISO20022 in the financial industry has already passed the tipping point, hence my advice to Sparx Systems to pay as much attention to it as they do to NIEM recently.
The ISO 20022 standard books define in detail what ISO 20022 compatible tool should be capable to do.
In short, this should include some or all of the following:
- support for ISO 20022 meta-model
- implementing ISO 20022 UML profile
- ability to import the ISO 20022 published repository,
- forward model transformations between model levels and traceability between levels, as defined in the ISO 20022 metamodel
- ability to generate XML Schemas as per the standard
- ability to reverse-engineer existing XML schemas back into the model
- ability to do round-trip - e.g. reverse-engineer, update message definitions in the model, and forward engineer into ISO 20022 compatible message Schema variant
- ability to export the repository/model in ISO 20022 meta-model XMI (e.g. in the format as currently used for publishing of the ISO 20022 repository on ISO20022 web site http://www.iso20022.org/e_dictionary.page?)

Definitely +1

+1 . I'd start to build it myself but I want to finish off my EBMM MDG.

I did get an in principle approval for starting work on this. But I can't see anything being done here until 12.1 is out of beta.
-
After 12.1 is released - which based on previous versions should be in the next few weeks - is not an issue for me, on the assumption that an MDG (or some other type of support) for ISO 20022 is a deliverable for early 2016.
Such functionality would make EA very attractive in the Financial Services sector.

Not my area at all, but those might be of interest for you:

Qwerty,
I am interested to see what's at the links, but unfortunately they do not open for me. Linkedin says "page not found". Can you post here as attachments perhaps?
Thanks, Alex.

Simon, thanks for the update. I am able to contribute with validation of use cases & requirements, and likely can help to organise a pilot in an FI, if you are interested.

Basically it's an invite from James Towers to a new group:

and

Hope they work for you.
