WebSphere Service Registry & Repository Services

Architecture Review

Does your existing WebSphere Service Registry & Repository implementation comply with established best practices? Are you getting the most from the WebSphere Service Registry & Repository system you have? Are you managing your Service Registry & Repository environment? A MQSoftware Service Registry & Repository Architecture Review will help you find out. A Senior MQSoftware Architect will review your existing implementation for best practice compliance including Service Lifecycle definitions, procedures for steps in your service lifecycle, management - Service Level Agreement/Objective - metadata, service definition documents, and service dependency metadata. Based on this review, the Consultant will make recommendations for improvement and compile this information into a formal document containing the recommendations and plans for their implementation.

Architecture Review deliverables:

  • Documentation of the existing WebSphere Service Registry & Repository environment including service lifecycle definition and procedures for each step in the lifecycle, service definition documentation and metadata, and WebSphere Service Registry & Repository procedures.
  • A formal Findings document describing compliance of the existing practices and environment with established best practices in the WebSphere Service Registry & Repository community.
  • A listing of Recommendations for improvement of the existing environment and practices.
  • Implementation plans for each of the primary recommendations.

Architecture Review prerequisites:

  • An existing operational WebSphere Service Registry & Repository environment and fundamental knowledge of its operation.
  • Appropriate personnel including Service Registry & Repository administrators, users, and architects must be available for meetings and discussion.

Duration: 1-3 weeks depending upon the scope of the review and the size of the implementation. 2 weeks is the most common engagement length
