Migrating WebLogic Applications to WebSphere Advanced Edition

The WebSphere Application Server, Advanced Edition provides a leading implementation of Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition technologies including Java Servlets, JavaServer Pages, and Enterprise JavaBeans. A primary competitor to WebSphere is BEA WebLogic Server, with support for the same programming technologies. In theory, a developer could write and deploy applications using WebLogic and move them to WebSphere without code changes. In practice, there are nuances in the implementations of the technologies that a developer and systems integrator should be aware of.

This redbook will help you plan the migration of an application developed for BEA WebLogic Server, so that the application will run on WebSphere Application Server, Advanced Edition. We explain the differences between the implementations of WebLogic and WebSphere, provide guidance to developers on how to deploy existing applications from WebLogic to WebSphere, and discuss how to design portable new applications that may be deployed on WebSphere or WebLogic.
