DataStage Transformation Extender was developed,owned and marketed my Meractor(an aviation company). e.g. Version 6.5.2 is Mercator. Later on Ascential Softwares purchased it and named it as DataStage Transformation Extender(DSTX).e.g. Version 7.5.1.2 is DSTX Later on, IBM purchased Asential Softwares and renamed the product as IBM-WTX(Websphere Transformation Extender) e.g. Version 8.1 is WTX

DSTX/WTX is a middleware that is used in complex transformations and one of the major players in applications like EDI and SWIFT. It processes live data and is an EAI tool.Its major rival software is Gentran,GIS.

Like DSPX, it has a designer where "maps" (equivalent of jobs) are written down/designed. Its metadata is defined in Type Trees in Type Tree maker.
