Top Reasons to Move to WAS 8 Right Now
Performance: WAS V8 is up to 85% higher throughput than WAS V6.x WAS V8 is up to 20-26% higher throughput than WAS V7 Breadth and Integration of Programming Models JEE 6 Certification Mobile Greatly Expanded Programming Model Support including OSGi Applications, Java Batch, SCA, XML & CEA Integration Automation to Drive Developer Productivity Increased Developer productivity by aligning programmer skills with programming model benefits and project needs Automation for edit-compile-debug cycle Automation to Drive Administrator Productivity Automated install via new IBM Installation Manager Automation of administrative tasks to ensure repeatability & standardization in the creation of app server environments Automation of problem determination task via HPEL (High Performance Extensible Logging) – Up to 6x faster than V7 Application & Config Migration automation from V6.x and V7 Performance Improvements: We focused on performance for v8 because of the TCO advantages that high performance drives From a raw throughput for EJB apps (i.e. # of transaction) standpoint, v8 is upto 20% faster than the latest update of v7. WAS v8 also provides 26% better throughput when running OSGi Apps vs. running Spring 3.0 apps on WASv7 (OSGi Apps contains the standardized Spring component model) Beyond throughput, we also deliver end-to-end performance enhancements like 20% faster startup for developers, 15% faster installs and 69% faster app server creation in a large topology. Breadth and Integration of Programming Models: Java EE 6 is a key prog. model in this release. EE6 offers developer productivity, improved user experiences with true support for Web 2.0/AJAX apps, & tighter integration across specs Java EE 6 is a step function increase in developer simplicity and productivity vs. J2EE 1.4, which customers using WAS v6.x are using. WAS is the first Enterprise Grade app server to provide Java EE support for production apps. (Note GlassFish also offers EE6, but they are not considered enterprise grade. WebLogic has not announced support yet, but expected in Oct JBoss is now expected in 1Q12.) WAS v8 offers the industry’s broadest set of standards-based programming models, including, Java EE 6, OSGi Applications, Java Batch, SCA (Service Component Architecture), XML, SIP (Session Initiation Protocol), CEA (Communications Enabled Applications) and Web 2.0 & Mobile. Automation to Drive Developer Productivity Because of WAS v8’s broad programming model support, developers can align their skills with the need of a project and select a programming model that will help them deliver an application projects faster. For instance, if you need to write a batch application, or you need to add Click-to-Call to your application, you can finish the project faster by using the Java Batch programming model, or the CEA programming model respectively vs. using Java EE. Better developer productivity and automaton of developer tasks through Monitored Directory Support. Add, update or delete files in the directory to deploy, redeploy or undeploy apps during the edit-compile-debug developer lifecycle. Since developers do this task (edit-compile-debug) 100s or 1000s times a day, using a monitored directory automates the developer’s efforts vs. having to manually deploy, redeploy and undeploy the app. Automation to Drive Administrator Productivity New Install technology, IBM Installation Manger, which automates dependency checking and pulls down the right versions of install files, fixes and pre-reqequisites for your environment. You just pick the level of WAS or WAS components, like IHS, you want to install and IM will do the rest. IM is the same install technology as WPS and RAD, so watch for more standardization in install/maintenance arena New automation of admin tasks to create cells from a template, to automate the movement of a WAS node from an existing machine or operating system and to automate the recovery of a node that may been damaged damaged. This helps admins set up, configure, move and recover WAS environments in a repeatable and consistent fashion to reduce errors HPEL is a new binary log and trace framework which speeds the capture and formatting of logging information, with much less impact on a running system, to help resolve problems faster, and catch issues before they turn into problems.

Broad Set of Integrated Standards-Based Programming Models
8 Broad Set of Integrated Standards-Based Programming Models Web 2.0 & Mobile Dynamic Scripting WAS V8 Java EE 6 OSGi Apps SCA Java Batch XML CEA SIP

Java EE 6 Simplify standards-based enterprise Java development for dept. to core business apps Enhanced developer productivity, user experiences, performance & integration: Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) 3.1: Enhanced developer productivity through simplification including testing outside of the application server, new timer support & async enhancements Contexts and Dependency Injection for Java (CDI) 1.0: Faster time to value through tighter and simpler integration between Web & business logic tiers Java Persistence API (JPA) 2.0: Enhanced developer ease of use & app performance through improved locking, mapping support & dynamic query construction Java Servlet 3.0: Enhanced time to value through annotations and ease of integrating third party presentation frameworks Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS) 1.1: Deliver better user experiences faster through integrated Web 2.0 prog model support JavaServer Faces (JSF) 2.0: Enhanced developer productivity & end user experience through annotations & Facelets support Bean Validation 1.0: Improved developer productivity through declarative means for describing validation constraints for data Java Architecture for XML Binding (JAXB) 2.2: Improved performance via new default marshalling optimizations Enterprise Web Services 1.3: Improved integration and reuse support Java API for XML-Based Web Services (JAX-WS) 2.2: Developer productivity and security enhancements Defaults Annotations and injections POJOs Integration with the latest Web Services Standards Enhanced support for Web Applications ** IBM Proprietary Bindings and Extensions New XML-based binding file format Bindings may be defined and easily hand-edited independently of WebSphere-specific tooling WebSphere 6.1: JAX-WS 2.0 WebSphere 7: JAX-WS 2.1 The WS-Notification 1.3 family of specifications collectively define a publish-subscribe messaging pattern for Web services. IBM WebSphere Application Server V6.1 provides an implementation of WS-Notification using the Java API for XML-based RPC (JAX-RPC) Web services. WebSphere Application Server V7 continues to support this JAX-RPC implementation. However, Version 7.0 also supports a new JAX-WS 2.1 implementation. When you create a new WS-Notification service in WebSphere Application Server V7, you must decide which of these implementations you want to use; either a “Version 6.1” (JAX-RPC) type of service, or a ”Version 7.0” (JAX-WS) type of service. How do you decide? If you choose the Version 7.0 type of service, then you will be able to use policy sets to compose your WS-Notification service with other open WS- standards, such as WS-ReliableMessaging and WS-Security. This would then enable you to send your messages more reliably or securely, or both. You could also apply JAX-WS handlers to your WS-Notification service. If, however, you don’t want to compose WS-Notification with other WS- standards, or you still want to apply JAX-RPC handlers to your service, then you can create a Version 6.1 type of service instead. 9 File Name Here.ppt

High Performance Reduce TCO through higher performance application foundations Java 6 JVM runtime enhancements JIT optimizations Application Performance Improvements vs. WAS v7 DayTrader: Up to 20% OSGi Applications: Up to 26% End-to-end performance improvements vs. WAS v7 including Up to 15% faster product installations Up to 20% faster server startup time for developers Up to 69% faster application server creation in a large topology Up to 31% faster application server cluster creation in a large topology Up to 22% faster application deployments in a large topology Up to 11% better vertical scaling on larger multi-core systems JPA 2.0 optimizations with DynaCache and JPA Level 2 cache Performance data is based on WebSphere Application Server in a distributed environment Up to 20% higher performance for EJB DayTrader apps Up to 26% higher performance for OSGi Apps vs. Spring Up to 15% faster product install/maintenance via new Install Manger (Now 127sec) Up to 20% faster product startup times (Now 21sec) Up to 69% faster application server creation time in a large topology (Can create 1,610 servers with V8 in the same time it took to create 500 servers with V7). Math = 1610 / 500 = Then 1/3.23 = Then = 69% Up to 31%+ faster application cluster creation time in a large topology (can create 363 clusters in time it took to create 250 clusters with v7). Math = 363 / 250 = Then 1/1.45 = Then = 31% Up to 21% faster application installs for typical bus critical applications in a large topology (Can install 640 apps with V8 in the same time it took to install 500 apps with V7). Math = 640 / 500 = Then 1/1.28 = Then = 22% Up to 11% better vertical scaling on a 16-way server; In WAS v7 we measure DayTrader on 1-way and 16-way to get throughput #. This gives us a ratio for WAS v7. The max ratio is 16. But for v7 we get For WAS v8 we get for this same ratio, a 11% improvement in v8. Performance is based on measurements and projections using standard IBM benchmarks in a controlled environment. The actual throughput or performance that any user will experience will vary depending upon many factors, including considerations such as the amount of multiprogramming in the user's job stream, the I/O configuration, the storage configuration, and the workload processed. Therefore, no assurance can be given that an individual user will achieve results similar to those stated here. File Name Here.ppt

Transactional Integrity
2323 2323 Transactional Integrity No transaction is ever lost or violated with WebSphere application infrastructure’s built-in transaction integrity WebSphere Platform designed as a transactional server from Day One. For all transaction protocols (XA, OTS, WS-AT) On all platforms WebSphere transaction costs are “pay-as-you-go” WebSphere fully optimized for 1PC and dynamically engages 2PC only after a 2nd resource is used Distributed transaction contexts created dynamically only during the first remote request in a transaction No change to application configuration as it engages 2PC or distributed transactions  the “simplest” configuration always works. Flexible configuration e.g. Per-application resource commit-ordering for DB/JMS scenarios Failed event manager (no transaction lost), repair & resubmit IBM has been doing this right for 40+ years File Name Here.ppt

Application Resilience & Continuous Operations
Reduce unexpected and expected operational down time Workload Management via WAS ND Built-in WAS ND failover automatically transitions workload from one service process to another Automatic redirection and distribution of transaction requests enables taking servers offline for maintenance Additionally, with WebSphere Virtual Enterprise Support rolling upgrades for continuous operations and simultaneous support of multiple application versions Client (HTTP, EJB, JMS, JCA, etc) Cluster Member Cluster Member Cluster Member X Business Service Health & Activity Monitors (Including HAManager) File Name Here.ppt

WebSphere Application Server: HA Architecture
High Availability Architecture provides: Peer Recovery Model with Active Hot Standbys for persistent services Transactions Messaging If a JVM fails then any Singletons running in that JVM are restarted on a Peer once the Failure is detected Starting on an already running Peer eliminates the start up time of a new process which could take minutes Planned failover takes a few seconds This low failover time means WAS can tolerate many failures without exceeding the 5.5 minute yearly maximum outage dictated by % WAS-ND JVM High Availability Manager Distribution and Consistency Services (DCS) Reliable Multicast Messaging (RMM) Transaction Service Workload Management (WLM) Data Replication Services (DRS) Messaging Engine On-Demand Configuration (ODC) HA: Transaction Log Peer Standby, Allows Failover of In-flight 2 PC transactions WebSphere Can Be Configured to Store Transaction Logs For Each Server on a NAS (Network Attached Storage) Shared File System Allows All Peers to See All Transaction Logs Automatic HAManager Recovery requires that the distributed file in use provide the necessary file locking semantics, Specifically that file locks are released when a server fails. When a V6 Cluster Member Fails, Peer is Elected to Recover the Transaction Log From the Failed Server In Doubt Transactions Are Recovered Very Quickly Not Enabled By Default For a Cluster File Name Here.ppt

Example – Hardware Clustering vs. WAS HA
Failure Scenario: Client calls EJB which updates database using 2PC transactions Failure during in-process transaction (after the prepare statement) – database record is locked until transaction is recovered (committed or rolled back) Hardware Clustering Cluster Manager detects failure Server Process is restarted/moved to recover the transaction log Could be up to 5 minutes Other apps could be locked out if they required the same record WAS HA HA Manager detects the failure Failover to a peer server which recovers the transaction log (shared on a NAS) from the failed server Recovery in a few seconds

High Availability Improvements
Reduce unexpected and expected operational down time Improved HA support for messaging applications Reconnect to a standby gateway queue manager when an active queue manage fails or becomes available Improved reliability & performance with DB2 Support for client affinity & client reroute for apps that use IBM DB2 New location transparency for EJBs using DB2 connections Improved transactional integrity Support for shared DB locks between transaction branches and integration of new programming models with WAS proven transaction engine

High Availability Improvements – cont’d
Reduce unexpected and expected operational down time Resource failover and retry logic for relational datasources and JCA connection factories Simplifies application development Minimizes the application code required to handle failure of connections to relational databases and other JCA resources Provides a common mechanism for applications to uniformly respond to planned or unplanned outages Administrator can tailor datasources and connection factory configuration based on application needs: number of connection retries alternate/failover resource pre-population of alternate/failover resource connection pool auto failback Full control of functionality available to scripts and programs via management MBean

Dynamic Application Extension of OSGi Apps
Rapidly extend applications to meet new business requirements with reduced down time TradeAPI Applications can be extended administratively without requiring them to be restarted. Extensions are installed into the WAS Internal Bundle Repository as Composite Bundle Archives (.cba). An administrator adds an extensions to an already deployed OSGi application and provides any necessary configuration (e.g. context roots for Web application bundles). This creates a “new deployment” for the application. The administrator can then choose to update to this new deployment. The runtime determines whether the extension can be added without requiring an application restart, and if it can, it simply installs and actives the new extension. TradeProvider1 (Extension) TradeProvider3 (Extension) TradeProvider2 (Extension) Administratively add new functionality to deployed applications Well-designed extensions result in zero application down-time as extensions are added and removed TradeManager Application File Name Here.ppt

Dynamic Application Update of OSGi Apps
Rapidly extend applications to meet new business requirements with reduced down time Application Web components <web.xml /> Blueprint <blueprint.xml/> We can see through the WAS Admin console the version of each bundle used by the application. Initially these are the only versions of the bundles available. Lets take a look at how we go about updating one of the bundles in this application. In this case, we’re going to replace the persistence bundle with a 1.1 version. We can do this by adding version 1.1 of the bundle to the bundle repository. If the administrator looks at the available bundles now he sees that the persistence bundle is available at versions 1.0 and 1.1. If the admin wishes to move to version 1.1 he can preview the changes to make sure the new version would still enable the application to be fully resolved. In this case it is a safe change to make so the Admin goes ahead and commits the change. The application remains continuously available throughout the in-place bundle update. Entities <persistence.xml/> Administratively preview new bundles before making updates In-place bundle update enables application to remain continuously available throughout the update process APPLICATION.MF File Name Here.ppt

Flexible Delivery & Pricing Models for WebSphere Software
Extending Value and Function No-cost WAS for Developers No-cost WAS Feature Packs Rational Application Developer for WebSphere Standard Edition No-cost Version to Version Application Migration Tool N0-cost Open Source WAS-CE with optional support Socket based pricing for optional support Socket based pricing for WAS Base Web-tier clustering in WAS Base Flexible licensing Traditional Private clouds Public Clouds WebSphere Application Server WebSphere Virtual Enterprise WebSphere eXtreme Scale Sub-capacity licensing IBM Workload Deployer WAS Hypervisor Editions WebApp Workload Pattern Intelligent Management Pack Sub-capacity licensing WAS on IBM Public Cloud WAS Amazon Machine Image (AMI) Pay per SW use or bring your SW Bring your license (on IBM Cloud) IBM Sandbox Right fit model – family of servers to serve needs and demands… Now that we’ve walked through the platform, from business strategy down to the dynamic infrastructure that runs the workload, it’s important to note that IBM is committed to giving customers flexibility in delivery models and pricing models to fit their business needs. This includes different form factors for consumption that allows customers to derive maximum value out of their specific environments. Let’s take as an example the WebSphere Application Server. In all environments, we provide no-charge WAS for developers which allows for free development on developer desktops on the same code base as the version running on the server. This allows customers to optimize costs while ensuring consistency between environments. We also believe in flexible licensing approaches: In traditional, non-cloud environments, you run the traditional WebSphere Application Server. You license this by PVU, and we also allow sub-capacity licensing for customers who want to run workloads on just a subset of the total number of processors in the server. For example, if you have 8 CPUs on the machine, but only run workload on 2 of the 8, you only pay licenses for 2 of those 8. Our competition only offers this capability if you use their VM technology – we support the ones our customers care about – VMWare, PowerVM, etc. In private cloud environments, rapid setup & provisioning becomes a key consideration, so we’ve created the WebSphere CloudBurst Appliance and WAS HV to enable set-up of WAS environments within minutes, based on 10 years of best practices. Also, sub-capacity pricing becomes even more important in cloud environments, as you will want flexibility in the size of your total cloud, but paying only for the capacity of that cloud you expect to use for WAS. Finally, we see customers expressing interest in public cloud environments for a number of reasons. Rapid start for new projects without having to wait for hardware. Prototype workloads you may not otherwise want to commit to, etc. For this reason, customers can use WAS at an hourly rate in Amazon’s Elastic Compute Cloud – and again, this is the same WAS code base they are using on developer desktops, running on premises, etc. Cloud 48 48 File Name Here.ppt
