In recent years, the search was on for enabling technologies that offered the business flexibility to support On Demand environments. These environments, based on service oriented architectures, rely on end-to-end integration of business processes across the company and with key partners, suppliers, and customers so you can respond quickly to customer demands, changes in the market, or even threats. WebSphere Application Server has been a critical component of choice for these modern enterprises. Yet, now that building a green enterprise has become the foremost concern for IT, what’s the new critical component? WebSphere Application Server … improved.
Join us for this complimentary teleconference to get the early update on WebSphere® Application Server Version 7, which is currently in beta. You’ll learn what it will mean to z/OS® environments, and more about the products that use it. We’ll also examine how the WebSphere Application Server takes full advantage of the z/OS execution environment to deliver a better execution environment and one that enables the enterprise to "go green."
In this teleconference, we’ll explain how WebSphere Application Server for z/OS has been enhanced in V7 with enhancements to performance, availability and usability, including:
- Improvements in response time for static and dynamic content
- Increased application runtime performance with focused analysis and code path improvement
- High Availability Manager based on Cross-System Coupling Facility
- Thread hang recovery that improves server reliability and performance
- Redesigned data collection facility to improve chargeback capabilities
- More unified install and configuration tasks with load modules in HFS
Speaker: Colette Manoni, STSM, WebSphere Application Server for z/OS Architect
