IBM Messaging Extension for Web Application Pattern V2.0 helps enable consistent provisioning and deployment of resourcesIBM Europe, Middle East, and Africa Software Announcement ZP12-0178July 31, 2012
Messaging Extension for Web Application Pattern:
 Back to top
IBM® Messaging Extension for Web Application Pattern V2.0 extends IBM Web Application Pattern V2.0 to help eliminate the amount of time cloud application writers can spend specifying, defining, and managing a WebSphere MQ messaging infrastructure required by their applications. Application dependencies are identified by Web Application Pattern, and Messaging Extension for Web Application Pattern can provide the means to automatically provision messaging resources to satisfy these dependencies when the application is deployed. Automatic provisioning removes the need for the application developer to perform these tasks. This consistent and repeatable cloud-deployed environment helps minimize the time required to put applications into production. Back to top

Businesses are under constant pressure to deliver new applications quickly in response to emerging opportunities. Shortening the length of time to develop and test applications is essential to minimizing this delivery time. Messaging Extension for Web Application Pattern extends Web Application Pattern to deliver repeatable provisioning and lifecycle management. Isolation of queuing resources can enable you to focus on application development rather than infrastructure. Messaging Extension for Web Application Pattern helps you to consistently provision and deploy the resources required by the applications. The whole lifecycle of the messaging resources is controlled, helping to ensure all the WebSphere MQ queue managers, queues, topics, channels, and connections are created as required at deployment time, and subsequently removed when the application deployment is no longer needed. This extension to Web Application Pattern gives you access to queuing resources directly from the Virtual Application Builder. No additional tools, interfaces, or scripts are needed to learn. The specified messaging resources are translated by Messaging Extension for Web Application Pattern into a dedicated set of WebSphere MQ objects. This helps to ensure that all relevant messaging resources are present in the application's deployment environment. Each application deployment has its own dedicated and isolated messaging resources, helping reduce the risk of applications unintentionally interacting. This announcement of Messaging Extension for Web Application Pattern satisfies one of the statements of direction announced in Software Announcement ZP12-0151, dated April 11, 2012 .

The number of PVU entitlements required is based on the processor technology (defined within the PVU table by processor value, brand, type, and model number at the website below) and the number of processors made available to the program. IBM continues to define a processor, for the purpose of PVU-based licensing, to be each processor core on a chip. A dual-core processor chip, for example, has two processor cores. The PVU table can be found at Licensee can deploy the program using either full capacity licensing or virtualization capacity (sub-capacity) licensing according to the Passport Advantage Sub-Capacity Licensing Terms (refer to the web page below). If using Full Capacity licensing, Licensee must obtain PVU entitlements sufficient to cover all activated processor cores1in the physical hardware environment made available to or managed by the Program, except for those servers from which the Program has been permanently removed. If using Virtualization Capacity licensing, Licensee must obtain entitlements sufficient to cover all activated processor cores made available to or managed by the Program, as defined according to the Virtualization Capacity License Counting Rules at

IT system security involves protecting systems and information through prevention, detection, and response to improper access from within and outside your enterprise. Improper access can result in information being altered destroyed or misappropriated or can result in misuse of your systems to attack others. Without a comprehensive approach to security, no IT system or product should be considered completely secure and no single product or security measure can be completely effective in preventing improper access. IBM systems and products are designed to be part of a comprehensive security approach, which will necessarily involve additional operational procedures, and may require other systems, products, or services to be most effective. IBM does not warrant that systems and products are immune from the malicious or illegal conduct of any party. Back to top
