WA1570 WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) v6.0 Administration Training and Courseware (Coming Soon)

This course teaches the basics of the administration and deployment of service-based applications and message mediations in IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) v6.0. It provides systems administrators, solutions administrators, and operators with the skills they need to install, configure, and manage WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus applications and to troubleshoot common problems.

Topics
	Overview of WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus Installing and Configuring WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus Problem Determination and Resolution Connectivity and Transformation Options Integration with WebSphere Service Registry and Repository (WSRR) Administering the Messaging Infrastructure Performance Monitoring and Tuning Security Monitoring with Common Event Infrastructure Clustering WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus

What you will learn
	After completing this course, the student should be able to: Install and configure WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus Install, configure and manage service-based applications Use various troubleshooting tools and techniques to diagnose problems Control the routing and transformation of service requests Use the WebSphere Service Registry and Repository for dynamic service governance Configure messaging resources required for WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus Secure WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus Improve the performance of WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus Collect information on application events using the Common Event Infrastructure Understand the configuration changes that are required to cluster WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus

Audience
	This course is designed for System Administrators who need to install, configure and maintain systems using WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus v6.0.

Prerequisites
	Students should have a good understanding of the basic administration aspects of WebSphere Application Server v6.0. The following courses can provide this experience for students who are not familiar with WebSphere v6.0 administration: WA1327 WebSphere Application Server V6.0 Administration (Best preparation) WA1352 WebSphere Application Server v6 Administration for v5.x Administrators

Duration
	Four days
