A system and method for optimizing data transfers in requests from a calling system to a called system via one or more channels are disclosed. Performance data related to a set of performance metrics for one or more communication scenarios of the calling system are stored in a database. The performance data is analyzed based on the performance metrics. An optimal channel is determined from the one or more channels on which a data transfer should occur based on the analyzing the performance data. A communication type is determined for the optimal channel.

Systems and methods for defining a form with a plurality of layout items for data presentation by a business application provide a tree view with tree nodes to represent the layout items, wherein the view visualizes structure information, a processing order, a selected tree node to represent a selected layout item; provide a property view to display properties of the selected layout item; provide a layout view to display items, wherein the selected layout item is highlighted; modify the selected layout item and the processing order through interaction with a user; and create a form definition document. The compatibility of layout items and processing order with a predefined data interface of the business application is verified as well.

Methods and systems, including computer program products, implementing techniques for configuring data structures. The techniques include receiving a description of a logical structure of a data model, the logical structure comprising a first set of elements; displaying a first display structure in a graphical user interface (GUI), the first display structure being a graphical representation of the description of the logical structure, the first display structure comprising visual representations of the elements of the logical structure; generating a data structure based on one or more user-selected visual representations of the elements of the logical structure, the data structure comprising a second set of elements; and displaying a second display structure in the GUI, the second display structure being a graphical representation of the data structure, the second display structure comprising visual representations of the elements of the data structure.

A method and system for dynamic selection of stateless/stateful component software. According to one embodiment, an application determines at runtime a characteristic associated with the process to be implemented by a software component, wherein stateless and stateful versions of the software component are available to implement the process, and invokes either the stateless or stateful version of the software component to implement the process based on the characteristic.
