Microsoft® Active Directory is one of the supported Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) options to use with IBM WebSphere Application Server Versions 7.0 or 6.1. The attached presentation, which originates from the IBM Software Services for WebSphere, provides a conceptual overview and possible solutions for the challenges that are associated with configuring Microsoft Active Directory with an Application Server stand-alone LDAP configuration and Federated Repository or Virtual Member Manager conf

IBM® WebSphere® Application Server for z/OS® can be setup with either WebSphere Security or z/OS Security. After installing and configuring the application server with WebSphere security, a user may wish to make the switch over to using z/OS Security for an existing server. This paper details the differences between WebSphere and z/OS Security, and provides the steps necessary to move from WebSphere Security to z/OS Security without having to reinstall or re-customize a new application server.

WebSphere Process Server for z/OS forms part of the WebSphere Business Integration family of products that provide functionality for implementing Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) on System z. This IBM Redpaper provides a detailed step-by-step configuration guide to setting up a clustered WebSphere Application Server Network Deployment cell and a guide to implementing WebSphere Process Server with DB2 in that cell. We configure WebSphere Process Server this way because this type of cell is used in a typical customer production environment. It provides resilience and scalability.

Link to a paper that examines large topologies for IBM® WebSphere® Application Server, and the best practices involved in configuring and managing them from several perspectives.

This paper discusses the usage of Java Message Service (JMS) on z/OS and focuses on the security aspects. Java Message Service (JMS) applications can be deployed using the Service Integration Bus (SIB) or using WebSphere MQ as messaging provider. Both options are discussed throughout the paper. A sample application accompanies the paper and is downloadable from the Web.

This whitepaper describes an application used by IBM to test and verify the interoperability between selected Object Request Brokers (ORBs) that are provided by a third-party and the ORB that is used in IBM WebSphere Application Server.

This paper describes security options of IBM WebSphere Application Server and Enterprise Information Systems (EIS) when using J2EE Connector Architecture (J2C) connectors. We cover the following topics: J2EE Connector Security Security when accessing CICS Security when accessing IMS

This Redpaper describes how to integrate Tivoli Access Manager for e-business Version 6 (TAMeb) and WebSphere Application Server Version 6 on z/OS. It primarily focuses on the following areas: Junctions to back-end servers - Creating and administering junctions - Public and private content Single Sign On (SSO) options - Global Sign On (GSO) - Lightweight Third Party Authentication (LTPA) - Trust Association Interceptor (TAI) Integration architecture The paper presents integration scenarios and shows how to configure them, discussing the pros and cons for each case. In addition, it covers associated J2EE security functions that can be used to complement a true end-to-end security solution with Tivoli Access Manager and WebSphere Application Server.

The Interop.ear is a simple (J2EE) application that performs an RMI/IIOP call from one platform to another. This can be useful for diagnosing setup or runtime problems, and for understanding how to perform remote invocations across platforms. This paper documents scenarios of the Interop application deployed on one platform calling another instance of the Interop application deployed on a different platform. These scenarios include a servlet, a J2EE client, and a thin client calling a remote stateless ses

This Redpaper provides a brief overview of SOA. Additionally, this Redpaper explores the following topics: - The IBM SOA lifecycle - IBM's SOA Strategy - A development and design approach - SOA on IBM System z - Standards in SOA - Design Considerations for a SOA with IBM System z - The three facets of IBM's SOA on System z Strategy - Deploying services to an IBM System z runtime server - Hosting the SOA infrastructure on System z - Integrating existing mainframe applications in SOA - The SOA maturity model and System z
