Kurs informasjon: WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus V6.2 Administration

This 3-day instructor-led course teaches students the skills and concepts needed to administer IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus V6.2. As a key IBM enterprise service bus product, WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus provides a standards-based integration solution that enables users to create and deploy interactions quickly and easily between applications and services.

This course has an administrative focus, and it begins by introducing students to the concept of the enterprise service bus (ESB) as an architectural pattern, as well as positioning the role of an ESB within a service-oriented architecture (SOA). Students learn about IBM’s product support for the ESB pattern through a detailed discussion of the technical specifications for the WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus product.

Students also learn how mediations are the central component in WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus through lectures that cover how mediations are implemented within the product. In addition, this course covers other administrative aspects of working with WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, such as configuring security and monitoring resources.

In the hands-on lab exercises, students learn how to install WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus as well as how to deploy, configure, and monitor mediations with tools such as the administrative console and the command line. Throughout the labs, students work with previously configured mediations, using WebSphere Integration Developer to explore and configure these mediations in order to gain a basic understanding of mediation development.  The labs also enable students to configure security and use Business Space pages and widgets to monitor the mediations that are deployed to WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.
