WebSphere Enterprise Services Bus - Implementing ESB

Reference course outline

BI1315 days

DURATION

5 Days

Descriptions

This class teaches how to build and deploy mediation integration solutions using the WebSphere Integration Developer (WID) and WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (WESB). The class covers the concepts, architecture, components, processes and procedures involved in implementing an integrated integration solution.

WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus, which supports a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), is the ideal platform for business applications that require integration using different technologies. Using the WebSphere Integration Developer tool set, integration solutions can be created using simplified integration mechanisms such as the Service Component Architecture (SCA) programming model, and the Service Message Objects (SMO) data model. SMO business objects can be defined, transformed, routed and mediated, using SCA components.

From an integration perspective, WebSphere ESB presently supports the following four types of integration: web services (WSDL), JMS (using queues), WebSphere BI Adapters (connectivity to traditional back-end Enterprise Information Systems), and J2C Adapter (new Java standards for adapters).

Audience

System Administrators, Integration Specialists, Developers, Business Process Developers, Support Engineers, Technical Sales and Marketing Personnel

Prerequisites

Java and J2EE skills strongly preferred – not required

Experience or class work with WSAD and WAS strongly preferred – not required

Objectives

In this course, using the above technologies, you will design, develop and test the mediation integration using all the four above mentioned types of integration. Specifically, you will learn about mediation module, mediation flow components, mediation primitives, unified common data structure (SMO), mediation module deployment package, and the development to deployment life cycle for mediation.

As an added bonus, this course will teach you how to integrate WebSphere MQ with WebSphere ESB to form a truly flexible Corporate Enterprise Service Bus.
