Redbooks logo

An IBM Redbooks publication

Abstract

Patterns for e-business are a group of proven, reusable assets that can help speed the process of developing applications. The pattern discussed in this book, the User-to-Business pattern, is the general case of users interacting with enterprise transactions and data. In particular it is relevant to those enterprises who deal with goods and services which cannot be listed and sold from a catalog.

This redbook discusses two application topologies of the User-to-Business patterns. Application topology 1 describes a situation where you are building an application that has no need to connect to back-end or legacy data. Topology 2 extends topology 1 to describe the situation where you need to access existing data on legacy or third-party systems.

Part 1 of the redbook takes you through the process of choosing an application topology and a runtime topology. It then gives you possible product mappings for implementation of the chosen runtime topology.

Part 2 is a set of guidelines for building your e-business application. It includes information on application design, technology options, application development, performance, and security.

Part 3 takes you through a working example, showing the implementation of an e-business application using application topology 1.y
