Training

This course teaches the fundamentals of WebSphere administration.  Although this course provides a basic introduction to WebSphere administration, those looking for a full understanding of WebSphere clustering should take our "full" WebSphere administration class (WA1700 - Windows, WA1840 - Linux).  This shorter class is most appropriate for those that might need just an introduction to WebSphere administration like support staff and application developers that are likely not directly involved with managing clustered WebSphere environments.

This 3 day class covers in depth how to perform many common WebSphere tasks using the WebSphere scripting libraries.  Rather than using the Administration Console, which is prone to human error, students will learn how to create automated and repeatable procedures modify WebSphere environments with scripting.  Students learn the Jython language in addition to the commands available in a WebSphere environment.

This course provides in depth information on how to tune WebSphere, database server, web server and the operating system to extract the last drop of performance. It covers performance tuning methodology, how to detect a bottleneck and common problems and solutions. After taking this class, students will be able to methodically create a stress testing plan and find bottlenecks and resolve them.

The students will perform hands on lab to create test scripts, perform stress test and gather key performance numbers. The class is generic as far as the stress testing tool is concerned. The concepts learned in this class can be used with any tool of choice.

This 2 day class teaches students how to manage various WebSphere issues they may encounter in their own organization.  Throughout the class students will learn about various advanced tools and techniques to help resolve problems in the configuration and operation of a WebSphere environment.  The class also provides details on the symptoms of many common WebSphere issues and how to resolve the issue.

Since many different products are based on the WebSphere Application Server, the issues and troubleshooting techniques covered in this class can be applied to many different WebSphere 7.0 environments.

This training course is meant for companies maintaining a complex WebSphere based web site. The course provides hands-on practice performing the tasks required in a production WebSphere environment. This course uses WebSphere Network Deployment Edition v7.0 in the labs. The labs use a Linux environment to install and configure WebSphere although configuration in a Windows environment would be similar.

The course covers advanced topics in the area of best practices, work load management (WLM), and security. After taking this course, students will be able to design a WebSphere based system that is more secure, easier to manage and performs better. Students will also be familiar with some of the new administrative and troubleshooting tools that are available with WebSphere v7.0.

This course teaches the basics of the administration and deployment of enterprise applications in the IBM WebSphere Application Server v7.0 Network Deployment environment. This course covers all of the topics required to administer a production WebSphere environment, including troubleshooting, security, databases, messaging, performance, scripting, web services, and clustering.

The labs for the course use a Linux environment.  We have found that many WebSphere clients run WebSphere on Linux. So learning how to administer WebSphere in this environment just makes sense. We distribute the environment for the labs as a virtual machine so you DO NOT need to install Linux natively for the training classroom and to further simplify the setup for you.

This course provides an overview of IBM WebSphere Application Server v7.0 and is intended for managers with teams working on different areas of WebSphere Application Server. This course clears the air on the application server's functionality and its different features. Having understood the key features of the product and its capabilities, participants will be better able to allocate resources in this area.
