This IBM Redpaper covers composite applications for desktop solutions that require multiple types of applications to run in a Lotus Expeditor V6.1 collaboration environment by providing inter-communication between components. SOA composite applications deliver high levels of business services and this IBM Redpaper covers the architecture, available tools, component considerations, assembling, deploying and wiring components in Lotus Expeditor V6.1 composite applications. Lotus Expeditor is a client platform for end-to-end smart client application solutions. Expeditor provides services to install and manage these applications and allow users to easily launch and switch among these applications. Expeditor leverages Eclipse technology to provide a client solution that runs on multiple operating systems. The benefits of composite applications include reducing the total cost of ownership for client solutions through reusability of existing components and the sharing of these components across applications, migrating existing applications to run on the client platform until such time as a business deems it necessary to fully exploit the client platform, controlling access to applications based on roles assigned to users and improving the user experience by allowing users to easily switch among multiple applications.

The authors' aim to is give the performance of web sites the attention it deserves. Poorly performing web sites frustrate users and lose customers. Today's web site has to be richly featured and personalized to attract consumers. But rich and personalized web sites are the enemy of good performance. The authors explain how a combination of web site design, and the flexibility of dynamic caching, restore a web site to good health. Today's web sites are a demanding mixture of static images surrounded by mini-shopping carts, e-marketing spots and other eye-catching fragments, all of which change from view to view and user to user. There are very few web pages left that can placed in a simple static web server cache. DynaCache, which was developed by IBM Research for the Nagano Olympics, puts caching back into the web site developers' tookbag as the essential performance technology for making web sites built with J2EE applications fly. The authors have written a book for novices and experienced users alike. It explains how to apply the now mature and robust DynaCache technology in WebSphere Commerce v6 to the task of of building highly performing J2EE applications.
