I’ve just submitted my abstracts for the WebSphere Technical Conference to be held in Vienna at the beginner of November. If you’re a European WebSphere customer then I’d highly recommend attending. Sign up before 5 August and get a 100 Euro discount. Hope to see you there!

WebSphere Technical Conference
Monday, July 2nd, 2007Spring certified on WebSphere Application Server
Friday, June 22nd, 2007As reported over on the WebSphere Community Blog, Interface21 has announced certification of the Spring framework with WebSphere Application Server. The article on developerWorks describing using Spring and Hibernate with WebSphere Application Server has also been just updated to cover Spring Framework 2.1.
WebSphere proxy server
Tuesday, June 19th, 2007I tend to consider myself more of an application architect than an infrastructure expert when it comes to WebSphere Application Server and this is exemplified by my total lack of knowledge about WebSphere’s proxy server. Although shipped as part of WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment I have to confess to only having a rather fuzzy idea about its capabilities. It was therefore good to read Erik Burckart’s column reviewing the capabilities of the product and discussing where and when it may be used.
WebSphere and Oracle RAC
Tuesday, June 19th, 2007The question of Oracle RAC support for WebSphere Application Server has come up with a number of customers I’ve worked with and Soloman Barghouthi has always had the answers. So, when teamed up with my ISSW colleague Deb Banerjee and WBI Chief Architect Eric Herness, this developerWorks article has to be the definitive statement of using Oracle RAC with WebSphere Process Server.
Real-time Java
Tuesday, June 19th, 2007Having plugged my mentor’s musings it seems only fair that I do the same for my mentee, Andrew Hall. Andrew currently works in the Java 5.0 service team but in a previous role in test he became intimately acquainted with the WebSphere Real Time product. I mentioned the Metronome Garbage Collector following Gerry Cuomo’s demo at the WebSphere Service Technical Conference. You can read all about it (along with much more) in the developerWorks article to which Andrew has contributed.
My Tasks
Tuesday, June 12th, 2007The WebSphere Application Server administrative console isn’t always the easiest beast to navigate and I often find myself having to repeat those five clicks to get back to the page I was just on a moment ago and wishing that there was some sort of bookmarking support. I’m therefore surprised I’ve failed to spot the My Tasks support in Version 6.1 before, which goes at least part of the way to solving that problem.
Performance Tuning Guide
Tuesday, June 12th, 2007The WebSphere Business Integration Performance Tuning Redpaper has now been updated to cover Version 6.0.2 of WebSphere ESB and Process Server. The information in this paper comes from the product development performance teams and, if anyone knows how to squeeze the last ounce out of these products, it’s those guys.
Service Life Cycle
Monday, June 11th, 2007Arnauld Desprets and Laurent Rieu are two of IBM’s European leaders in the SOA governance space so it’s worth reading their developerWorks article on implementing and enforcing a service lifecycle with WebSphere Service Registry and Repository. A reminder though that WebSphere Integration Developer isn’t the only mechanism to create SACL and OWL files.
