Lately I was trying to find some good documentation on best practices around DataPower.
Because DataPower is very flexible and provide many solution to a single problem, I have experienced that while putting a design around DataPower you can easily get into arguments (not very polite discussion) with other mates. Discussion can go which is best solution in terms of performance, maintenance & deployment.
I found is very hard to reach to one solution when few DataPower developers putting their own heads and trying to reach to a consensus. I then tried to find what IBM recommendation is and found this link.
Hope this link can help

Compare 2 DataPower Environment (Version 01)
Introduction
FileDiff allows
developers/administrators to compare 2 DataPower environments to
compare. It’s a java based program which access XML Management Interface of
DataPower to compare file system. Output of tool is formatted HTML.
How it works
FileDiff takes a property file as input which has
details of DP boxes. The packaged jar run and creates a HTML output.
CompareConfig.properties file contains 2 entries, each for one box. You should
have XML management interface privileges.
#URL DataPower01
dblabel01=box1
dpUrl01=https://host01:5550/service/mgmt/current
domain01=domain
username01=urusername
password01=urpassword
#URL DataPower02
dblabel02=box2
dpUrl02=https://host02:5550/service/mgmt/current
domain02=domain
username02=urusername
password02=urpassword
#Folder
folderToCompare=local:/
Running the tool
> java -jar
FileSystemDiff.jar CompareConfig.properties
The output of this run would generate DiffOutput.html.
Remember the tool always generates output with name DiffOutput.html
so rename or move existing report else new report
will replace existing one.
You can email if you need more information related to same. (rohit.goyal6@gmail.com)
