CODE: WA599G

LENGTH: 16 Hours (2 days)

PRICE: £1,300.00

Description

This course teaches you the skills that are needed to administer IBM WebSphere Application Server V9 in a federated environment.

This release of IBM WebSphere Application Server provides enhanced support for standards (notably Java 7 EE), emerging technology, and a choice of development frameworks.

In this course, you learn how to configure and maintain IBM WebSphere Application Server V9 Network Deployment. You learn how to deploy and create a deployment manager and federate a cell. In addition, you learn how to create a cluster within the federated cell.

Throughout the course, hands-on exercises and demonstrations reinforce lecture content. You gain practical experience with WebSphere Application Server V9 by completing tasks such as creating a deployment manager, federating a stand-alone application server, creating a custom profile, and clustering an existing application server.

Arrow is offering this course as a 2 day event, the material will however probably be completed by 3pm on the second day.  IBM lists this as a 1.5 day event.
