The release of the latest JBoss Developer Studio (JBDS) brings with it the questions around how to get started with the various JBoss Integration and BPM product tool sets that are not installed out of the box.
In this series of articles we will outline for you how to install each set of tools and explain which products they are supporting.
This should help you in making an informed decision about what tooling you might want to install before embarking on your next JBoss integration project.

- JBoss Business Process and Rules Development
- JBoss Integration and SOA Development
- JBoss Data Virtualization Development
- JBoss SOA 5.x Development
