How much downtime can your company tolerate? Is a server outage an annoyance or is it crippling? Is an application outage acceptable? The IBM System z® operating system is about availability, and the WebSphere® Application Server for z/OS® is designed to exploit the z/OS platform and provide a highly available Java™ environment. In Version 8, IBM has further enhanced this capability so that you get continuous availability and transactional integrity even in the face of disaster.
Join us for this complimentary webcast, presented by IBM and SHARE, and learn how to assess and prevent downtime using WebSphere Application Server on z/OS V8 — and how it can be a lifesaver for anyone in your company. Its unique implementation is optimized to leverage the advantages of System z and z/OS and provide required levels of transaction throughput for service-level agreements, with instantaneous response to unexpected demands. In this session, we’ll also show you how to get optimal performance from co-location of WebSphere Application Server and DB2® in the same LPAR, especially with JDBC™ Type 2 local drivers. Finally, we’ll discuss its intelligent management capabilities which enable you to make autonomic adjustments to match business priorities.
Join us after the webcast for a live question-and-answer session. The webcast will also be available for replay after the event.
