MQS1148: Web Services in WebSphere

Overview:

This course is designed to prepare architects and application developers for the implementation of a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) using IBM’s WebSphere family of products. Rather than focusing on a specific product, this course covers Web Services related functions throughout the product family. The fundamentals of SOA and the roles of each of the WebSphere products in SOA implementation are discussed. Students will learn the core ideas of designing and implementing business services including Service Types and Operations, Data Structure and Protocol Selection (with focus on JMS and HTTP bindings), Describing a Service through WSDL, Sharing WSDL with UDDI. In hands-on exercises, students will build and deploy both HTTP and JMS based web services. Details of the SOAP data specification are presented and exercised. Students also discuss Mediation services to buffer distinct data structure and protocol selection between services and develop such services in the WebSphere Advanced ESB (WebSphere Message Broker) including HTTP-HTTP, JMS-JMS and HTTP-JMS mediations. Students also practice exposing an existing WebSphere MQ based application using fixed record data (i.e. a COBOL application) as a WebService. Finally, concepts associated with the development of Orchestration Services are discussed. Students develop a simple business process model using WebSphere Process Server and deploy it to orchestrate services developed in the previous exercises.

Who should take this course:

This course is intended for architects and application developers for the implementation of a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) using IBM’s WebSphere family of products.

Topics Include:

  • Service Oriented Architectures including Business, Mediation, and Orchestration Service layers in an Enterprise level SOA.
  • Defining Business Services including data structure and protocol selection, the SOAP specification, describing services with WSDL, HTTP and JMS WSDL bindings, sharing WSDL through UDDI, Web Services Interoperability, and Rational Application Developer Web Services Tools
  • Mediation Services and ESBs including available ESB providers, mediating JMS based services, mediating HTTP based services, mediation across protocols, and WebSphere Message Broker Tools.
  • Orchestration Services including the fundamentals of process orchestration and building and deploying models with WebSphere Process Server.

Prerequisites:

No formal prerequisites. Application architecture and/or development experience is strongly recommended. Experience with one or more of the underlying WebSphere products (Rational Application Developer, WebSphere Message Broker, and WebSphere Process Server) is beneficial, but is not required.

Certification Program:

None.
