Course Description
This 2-day instructor-led intermediate course teaches technical professionals how to design and implement publish/subscribe-based business programs using IBM WebSphere MQ V7.
The course begins with an overview of the concepts and facilities of publish/subscribe applications. Then learn how the new WebSphere MQ API (MQI) calls support native publish/subscribe capabilities in IBM WebSphere MQ V7, and about its interaction with IBM WebSphere Message Broker. Also learn how to plan for and implement security for publish/subscribe applications, as well as how to manage the coexistence and migration between publish/subscribe applications across various WebSphere MQ releases.
In the hands-on lab exercises, use examples and sample programs provided in COBOL and C to gain practical experience with the new WebSphere MQ V7 commands and MQ Explorer changes that support these new publish/subscribe facilities. You also have the opportunity to administer the new WebSphere MQ V7 publish/subscribe-related objects using MQSC and MQ Explorer.
