Pro (IBM) WebSphere Application Server 7 Internals covers the internal architecture and implementation of the WebSphere Application Server (WAS) version 7 product set and how other IBM products extend it. It presents information to enable administrators, developers, and architects to learn about the aspects of WAS that apply to them:
- Administrators will come to understand how the WAS7 environment functions to best optimize it for their environment, and what to do when things go wrong.
- Developers will learn to extend the functionality in the base WAS product.
- Architects will see how the WAS product underpins the IBM offerings to fit in an enterprise.
What you’ll learn
- Explore the internal architecture that makes up a modern high–end application server and how other products extend it to provide additional functionality.
- Implement, deploy, and serve Java EE 5 and other enterprise Java applications.
- See how the environment all fits together so you can make the best use of the WebSphere Application Server services.
- Explore how all this works with simple, important code examples.
- Troubleshoot problems when the inevitable crisis occurs.
