provide the portability and control of server-side business applications along with the
performance and manageability of EJB technology. It extends the value and versatility of this
platform with:
• Complete Java and Enterprise Java support, including a server for applications built to
the EJB specification. The focus is on medium- to high-level transactional
environments used in conjunction with dynamic Web content generation and
Web-initiated transactions.
• Performance and scaling attributes with support for bean-managed and
container-managed persistence, for entity beans and session beans, with transaction
management and monitoring. Container management and persistent storage helps
provide a high-performance transactional environment using Servlets and EJB
technology.
This WebSphere product is integral to managing and integrating enterprise-wide applications
while leveraging open Java-based technologies and APIs. It enables powerful interactions
with relational databases, transaction processing systems, and other applications. It is built
using Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) IIOP protocol. This Web
application server provides deployment and management of Java and EJB applications.
Integration and connectivity to enterprise applications and systems is core to WebSphere. It
enables powerful interaction with enterprise databases, transaction systems, and
applications. This WebSphere edition focuses on extensive performance, scaling, and
security control improvements to its premium and complete implementation of an EJB server.
This edition continues to provide a strong, Java-based Web application platform supporting
deployment of e-business applications and components. This includes Java servlets, and
JavaBean, Enterprise JavaBean, and JSP technology for transactions, enterprise system
access, and dynamic content generation.
This version focuses on higher performance and scalability across the deployment
environment. It addresses load balancing, application partitioning, and workload
management for EJB components. This involves enhanced and added "container"
deployment environment services for servlets, and EJB and JSP technology. The improved
transaction management has intelligence on the type of applications executing and can
deploy and execute across multiple applications and components accordingly. Object
management and performance are optimized.
The EJB server provides better monitoring and control of containers used within the server. It
offers enhanced Java Transaction Service (JTS) support within the EJB server, better
interoperability and a major rewrite of the deployment environment.
The single, robust server engine provides more control, better performance, more flexibility,
and better serviceability.
