  1. IBM Software Overview

  2. Agenda • Computing on Demand: Virtualised, Open, Autonomic, Integrated • Logicalis Reference Architecture • Information capture, management and analysis; delivery to the desktop; messaging, productivity and collaboration; compliance • SOA; process modelling and delivery • Application integration and web enablement • Tooling • iSeries application modernisation options; HATS and WebFacing • Platforms – coverage, things to consider • Non-functional requirements: Agility, continuity, automation and monitoring

  3. The business view Operations Business processes Productivity Innovation Management information Integrity and compliance Sales and marketing Finance Third party relationships and information flows

  4. The systems view ERP and other line-of-business systems Information capture, management and analysis Process modelling and delivery Logic and interfacing (human, machine, device) Build, run and manage in a compliance context CRM systems Financial systems Push (marketing) Self-service (e.g. websites, extranets) Automated partner agreements (e.g. SCM systems, EDI)

WDSc – WebSphere Development Studio Client for iSeries – adds WebFacing, RSE, Code Designer and a few other iSeries-specific pieces RAD – Rational Application Developer – adds EJBs and a few other ‘advanced’ pieces Development tooling – iSeries customers Free of charge iSeries software stack: 5722-WDS provides *NOMAX licences Passport Advantage, licensed by seat WDScA - WebSphere Development Studio Client – Advanced – combines WDSc and RAD RWD – Rational Web Developer – develop HTML, JSPs, servlets, Web services Eclipse – open source IDE framework

  21. Non functional requirements • Security • High performance • Availability • Responsiveness to change • Cost effectiveness • Flexible resource usage • Manageability • Visibility and management information

  22. Typical Web application: components and consumers Database and data storage component Application serving component Professional user Database/application monitoring and administration consumers (IT) Interested member of the public Internal administrators and management information consumers (business) Web serving component INTERNET Traffic analysis component White label or other business partner Content management administration component External DMZ Internal Networking component

  23. Web server Web server Web server Web application server in cluster Web application server in cluster Web application server in cluster Typical Web application: configuration End user CSS switch Apache HTTP plugin WebSphere Apache Edge Caching Proxy JDBC data sources DMZ DB2 Session database Reference database Transactional database

  24. Database and data storage: example configuration with clustered DB2 and remote site handling Main site Remote site with additional DB2 server(s) and SAN provision SAN DB2 Enterprise Edition on Integrated Cluster Environment for Linux (for load balancing/failover) DB2 server (potentially handles many datasets) DB2 replication (HADR) SAN fabric with redundancy DB2 server DB2 server DB2 server Clustered Linux filesystem containing images to be served Linux data replication (DRBD)

  25. End-to-end Web application availability • ISP connectivity/GSS • Multi provider • Multi site • Appropriate DNS manipulation • Application Server • Multiple WAS instances for scalability • Clustering automates duplication of J2EE configuration and resources and provides transparent failover, plus avoids issues with maintenance of client sessions • Database • and Application • Programs • Duplicated configuration and resources via appropriate HA software • Web Server • Duplicated Intel hardware and Apache software • Duplicated Apache configuration and HTML resources • Load balancer provides automatic failover as well as scalability • Connectors • Configuration must allow automatic failover • JDBC: reliant on database failover • Network security and DMZ infrastructure • Redundant firewall with duplicated configuration • Redundant CSS • Automatic failover
