Abstract:
Large-scale WebSphere deployments (many cells) can, over time, become more and more complex to manage. Administrators spend more and more time on keeping environments in sync, rolling out patches and upgrades, fire-fighting and not enough enabling new projects or keeping up with the technology. Something has to give. \n\nAttend this session to learn how Open Logic is using IBM Rational Automation Framework for WebSphere to transform the manageability of large-scale WebSphere deployments. Learn how this deployment automation solution is helping manage many WebSphere Products, from the Portal to ESB, Process Server and numerous other IBM middleware products. \n\nThe session stands alone, but does complement Change Management for WebSphere Administration with practical experience of the pitfalls and lessons learned when approaching WebSphere deployments in this way. We'll describe the project approach and some of the important lessons learned that you might be able to apply to your organisation. \n\nThe session will include a short demonstration.
