Migration Failures in a WebSphere Network Deployment on an AIX Platform
Migration failures may occur when migrating application run time configurations for large complex network deployment to higher version of WebSphere Application Server (WAS) Network Deployment(ND) on AIX platform. The WebSphere migration utilities such as WASPreUpgrade and WASPostUpgrade provide the necessary mechanism to move the existing configuration information such as older defaults and settings including ports, JVM parameters etc from previous version to higher version of the WebSphere Application Server. These migration failures may happen due to several reasons such as any shortcomings in the procedure or a peculiar deployment topology chosen by the customer or due to any underlying network and synchronization failures from configurations in WebSphere or AIX.

Rapid Development for WebSphere Portal
OpenXava is a framework for Rapid Development of portlet applications compatible with WebSphere Portal. It is well-suited for business and database oriented applications. OpenXava allows you develop applications just by writing simple domain classes with Java or Groovy. The user interface is generated automatically in runtime, without code generation. OpenXava 4.3 adds support for total properties in collections, it has a new editor for HTML_TEXT stereotype, add info and warning messages and some other useful new features. Now you can use square brakets in @ListProperties to asociate one or more properties of the container entity to a property of the collection. In this way you can add arbitrary values as totals.

How Does In Memory Data Grid IMDG Solve the Scalability Problem?
In understanding the scalability challenge addressed by WebSphere eXtreme Scale, let us first define and understand scalability. Wikipedia defines scalability as a "desirable property of a system, a network, or a process, which indicates its ability to either handle growing amounts of work in a graceful manner, or to be readily enlarged. For example, it can refer to the capability of a system to increase total throughput under an increased load when resources (typically hardware) are added."

Start-up Betas Java PaaS for the Federated Cloud
CumuLogic, the latest Java Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) start-up, sent its widgetry out into public beta the other day hoping enterprises, cloud providers and ISVs use it to build and manage Java apps in public, private and hybrid cloud environments. It’s after the mid-sized and large enterprises, where Java lives, that want to develop and deploy Java apps in the cloud. And it’s not exactly going to turn away any enterprise-grade cloud vendors looking to offer their customers a Java Platform-as-a-Service. Naturally, out in the wild it’ll encounter CloudBees’ RUN@Cloud, VMware’s Cloud Foundry, Red Hat’s OpenShift and Microsoft’s Azure.

After Five-Year Drought, Java SE7 Is Here
Java SE 7, the Java Platform, Standard Edition 7 is out. It’s the first major release in five years and took 9,494 bug fixes, 1,966 enhancements, 9,018 changesets, 147 builds and four JSRs to get here. It’s also the first release of the Java platform under Oracle’s stewardship, and threatened not to happen until Oracle put its foot down and went off and wheeled and dealed and leveraged IBM. (Remember the Apache Foundation stalking off and slamming the door?) Still, it’s based on the open source OpenJDK, making it something of a novelty for a commercial release.

General Best Practices for WebSphere Application Environments
This article provides a list of general best practices to apply to any WebSphere Application Server V7 and V8 environment. However, some of the recommendations only apply to specific conditions and scenarios. These recommendations could be used to set up any WebSphere environment. All WebSphere Application processes should be running as non-admin/root user. It's not a good practice to run a process as an admin/root user. For obvious reasons, you don't want more folks to know about the admin/root password and generally the WebSphere admins are not the system admins. Create a services user account on the box and use it for the WebSphere Application's start and stop purposes.
