Developing Work area

This page provides a starting point for finding information about work areas, a WebSphere extension for improving developer productivity.

Work areas provide a capability much like that of global variables. They enable efficient sharing of information across a distributed application.

For example, you might want to add profile information as each customer enters your application. By placing this information in a work area, it is available throughout your application, eliminating the need to hand-code a solution or to read and write information to a database.
