WebSphere InterChange Server migration to WebSphere Process Server
 |
|
|
|
IBM® WebSphere® Process Server is the next generation business process integration server that has evolved from proven business integration concepts, application server technologies, and the latest open standards.
This IBM Redbooks® publication provides guidance on how to migrate WebSphere InterChange Server and WebSphere Business Integration Adapters to WepSphere Process Server.
The book first discusses the critical concepts related to integration solution architecture, migration project planning and technical implementation approach.
Detail discussion on migration tooling capabilities follow with various migration examples showing how you can upgrade IBM WebSphere InterChange Server and WebSphere Business Integration Adapters to WebSphere Process Server and WebSphere Adapters.
This book is divided into five parts:
Part 1, "Migration concepts" on page 3 introduces the high level concepts required to apprehend the migration roadmap. It first adopts a software architecture perspective. It categorizes the various design patterns that compose an integration solution and explains how they are implemented in WebSphere InterChange Server and WepSphere Process Server. Then it takes a project perspective and provides a recommended approach for migration planning.
Part 2, "Migration implementation concepts" on page 69 discusses relevant concepts to get you started with the migration implementation. It starts with a product overview, introduces key technologies and capabilities, and explains how they relate to each other between the products. Then it provides recommendations to select the appropriate path in regards with the main technical challenges of the migration implementation.
Part 3, "Migration tooling" on page 157 covers the standard migration tools that are available for upgrading from WebSphere InterChange Server to WebSphere Process Server. It comprises the migration tooling including WebSphere Integration Developer, the migration wizard, the reposMigrate utility, and the tools dedicated to adapters migration. It explains what post migration tasks have to be executed for certain artifacts such as database connection pools and relationships. It concludes with best practices to ease the usage of the migration tooling and to optimize the generated artifacts.
Part 4, "Technical examples" on page 243 illustrates technical examples that guide you through the migration to WebSphere Process Server using the available tooling capability. It demonstrates the process of upgrading WebSphere Business Integration Adapter Projects, first to run on Process Server in compatibility mode and second to leverage the WebSphere Adapters.
The process of upgrading from WebSphere Business Integration Adapters to WebSphere Process Server bindings is also illustrated. Data transformation in WebSphere Process Server and the relationship between data handlers and data bindings and available options for upgrade are explained.
Part 5, "End-to-end technical solutions" on page 763 provides examples of solution migration. provides step-by-step migration of two end-to-end technical solutions that are based on the commonly used Data Access and Data Synchronization interaction patterns respectively.
Migration is approached in phases by fist migrating the WebSphere InterChange Server components as-is using the migration tool. Then, the WebSphere Business Integration Adapters are upgraded to either WebSphere Adapters or native bindings as appropriate. Finally, the migrated artifacts are further enhanced and optimized based on WebSphere Process Server implementation best practices when applicable. |
