Connect IBM Integration Designer to test Process Server in cloud

BPM on Cloud allows users to download and install an instance of Integration Designer locally. No test server is provided with this download, as is true with the regular BPM Advanced product set.
Rather than requiring such customers who want to take advantage of the rich features of IID to obtain their own Process Server, the local IID could connect directly to a test Process Server in the cloud.

This would equalize cloud and on-prem capabilities and provide further positive experience with hybrid cloud.

    We value your suggestions for BPM product enhancements. This is a valid requirement and may be considered for a future BPM release. Please note this is not a commitment, but an indication of intent.
