IBM Websphere Cast Iron version 7.5.0.0 was released at the end of July 2015. It was a major jump form 7.0 to 7.5

Along with the general “contains Platform enhancements and serviceability improvements to strengthen infrastructure and improve platform robustness and user experience.” which is pretty generic, it seems like the only other improvements are in the connectors.

 

This is what the summary release notes say:

The likes of Box, Dropbox and MS Dynamics are not new so one would assume they have been “enhanced” somehow. Coupa, Silverpop and Eloqua must have aliases because I can’t find them. And the new ones are highlighted in red.

Summary

So the update seems to be some unspecified platform “enhancements’ as well as additional endpoints which will save users sometime instead of creating their own.

I will be asking the IBM Cast Iron team for some more details and clarification on this. Stay tuned!
