Build SOA-based flexible, economical, and efficient applications for IBM WebSphere Process Server 7 and Enterprise Service Bus 7 with this book and eBook.

This IBM® RedpaperTM publication was produced by the WebSphere® Business Process Management performance teams. It provides performance tuning tips and best practices for WebSphere Process Server 7.0.0.1, WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus 7.0.0.1, WebSphere Integration Developer 7.0.0.1, WebSphere Business Monitor 7.0.0.0, and WebSphere Business Modeler 7.0.0.1. These products represent an integrated development and runtime environment based on a key set of service-oriented architecture (SOA) and business process management (BPM) technologies: Service Component Architecture (SCA), Service Data Object (SDO), and Business Process Execution Language for Web Services (BPEL). This paper is aimed at a wide variety of groups, both within IBM (development, services, technical sales, and so forth) and by customers. For those who are either considering or are in the early stages of implementing a solution incorporating these products, this document should prove a useful reference, both in terms of best practices during application development and deployment, and as a reference for setup, tuning, and configuration information. This paper provides a useful introduction to many of the issues influencing each product's performance, and can serve as a guide for making rational first choices in terms of configuration and performance settings. Similarly, those who have already implemented a solution using these products might use the information presented here to gain insight as to how their overall integrated solution performance might be improved. All of these products build on the core capabilities of the WebSphere Application Server infrastructure, so BPM solutions also benefit from tuning, configuration, and best practices information for WebSphere Application Server and the corresponding platform JavaTM Virtual Machines (JVMs). Pointers to this information can be found in "Related publications" on page 67. The reader is encouraged to use this paper in conjunction with these references..

This IBM® Redbooks® publication brings together subject matter experts with experience using the leading IBM customer interaction platform for cross-channel and online commerce, IBM WebSphere® Commerce, with the powerful IBM Sterling Order Management, which coordinates order fulfillment from all channels and across the extended enterprise. An integrated solution was built in the lab that illustrates how these products can be integrated to benefit IBM customers. This publication focuses on the integration of the IBM high-volume commerce solution designed to address enterprise commerce needs by delivering a rich, robust multi-channel customer experience, with Sterling Order Management, designed to enable supplier collaboration with management and order fulfillment process optimization. By integrating WebSphere Commerce and Sterling Order Management with out-of-the-box components, we prove that customers are provided an end-to-end solution to address a complete opportunity for a fulfillment life cycle that is cost effective and easy to implement. This publication targets a technical audience for the documentation of the integration approach by explaining the solution architecture and the implementation details. However, this publication also contains introductory chapters that contain executive summary material and provides well-documented scenarios with use cases for business analysts whose domain would be these systems.

This book is intended for developers who are either already involved with enterprise integration or planning to venture into the domain. Basic knowledge of Java and Spring is expected. For newer users, this book can be used to understand an integration scenario, what the challenges are, and how Spring Integration can be used to solve it. Prior experience of Spring Integration is not expected as this book will walk you through all the code examples.

This IBM® Redbooks® publication provides concepts, details, and examples related to the migration process for Business Process Management (BPM) products. It describes three migration patterns for migrating earlier versions (Version 6.0.2, Version 6.1, Version 6.1.2, and Version 6.2) of the following BPM products to IBM WebSphere® Dynamic Process Edition: IBM WebSphere Process Server IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus IBM WebSphere Business Modeler IBM WebSphere Business Monitor IBM WebSphere Business Services Fabric IBM WebSphere Adapters This book includes planning information and leading practices for the migration of these products. It provides information about the steps required to perform the migration, and includes two scenarios that walk you through example migrations on distributed and IBM z/OS® platforms.
