Title: IBM Policy & SLA Management and Monitoring at the Edge
Watch the video replay and Download the presentation here!
Policy is a standard or guideline that can help your organization manage its service availability and performance management in a repeatable and best practices manner. An SOA Policy actionable pattern has been implemented at IBM with WSRR for policy administration, WebSphere DataPower for policy enforcement, and Tivoli ITCAM for SOA for policy monitoring. The speakers will explain the basics of the pattern including the automated integration between products. They will also provide details around the policy implementation, and examples of policy usage for Service Availability and Performance Management.

Lab Chat: WAS V8.5 Alpha: The Lightweight WebSphere Application Server “Liberty” Profile
Watch the video replay and Download the presentation here!
This session will look at how the WebSphere Application Server is evolving to address the requirements of Developers. Developers need a lightweight WebSphere execution environment - in Eclipse or RAD - whose configuration is simple to edit, version and share, whose footprint is closely tailored the the application's needs, and whose execution behaviour has high fidelity to the target production system. This session focuses on new improvements in the Developer Experience for web applications and demonstrates how these dramatically simplify the edit-compile-debug cycle to improve developer productivity and reduce time to value. It will also look at a new production deployment scenario in which a configured instance of a server is "embedded" in an application.

Watch the video replay and Download the presentation here!
Wondering whether to upgrade to WebSphere MQ v7.1? Concerned about security? If the answer to these questions is "yes", then this webinar is for you! The theme of the v7.1 release can be summed up in one word: Simplify. Learn how WMQ v7.1 features can replace channel security exits, reduce complexity, and consolidate security configurations into a single MQSC script. See how WMQ v7.1 enables security by default to block remote attacks. Find out how to streamline administrative tasks while improving security granularity. The presentation will also discuss how the new features interact with WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition and WebSphere MQ Advanced Message Security to provide a single secure environment for messages, files and applications end-to-end.

The new versions of WebSphere Operational Decision Management (formerly ILOG BRMS) and IBM Business Process Manager enable even tighter collaboration between business and IT.
In early October, IBM announced two key products to support business decisions and processes. WebSphere Operational Decision Management v7.5 is the new version of the ILOG Business Rules Management platform with some cool added features. The new product has gained capabilities for complex event processing, through the inclusion of the WebSphere Business Events development and runtime environments. Business rules and business events can now be defined, managed, and governed using a single web-based interface. IBM also announced a new version of IBM Business Process Manager. IBM BPM v7.5.1 adds BPMN 2.0 support for both business and IT users along with tighter integrations with IBM Case Manager.
Join this call to learn about the latest innovations in IBM's Decision Management and BPM portfolio, and how you can apply these new capabilities to improve your decisions and processes.

Topic: Best Practices for Integrating Elastic Caching Into SOA Environments
Watch the video replay and Download the presentation.
In an effort to handle the increased complexity and demands of business-critical applications coupled with the dynamic nature of a rapidly evolving business climate, the traditional three-tier enterprise architecture can become costly and difficult to scale to handle these dynamic loads. Elastic caching can be used to overcome traditional scaling and performance limitations, as well as improve fault tolerance. This session will discuss the fundamentals of elastic caching. It will describe the common usage scenarios for elastic caching. In addition, we will discuss how maintaining availability and partition tolerance of a distributed cache across multiple datacenters can be accomplished via multi-master replication. Finally, we will describe how elastic caching can seamlessly integrate into an enterprise service bus to dramatically improve performance and scalability in service oriented architecture.
