Configuring and Deploying Open Source with WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile

This IBM® Redbook®s publication explains the capabilities of IBM WebSphere® Application Server Liberty profile, which is extremely lightweight, easy to install, and fast to use. Liberty profile provides a convenient and capable platform for developing and testing your web and OSGi applications. The Liberty profile server is built using OSGi technology and concepts. The fit-for-purpose nature of the run time relies on the dynamic behavior inherent in the OSGi framework and service registry. As bundles are installed or uninstalled from the framework, their services are automatically added or removed from the service registry. The result is a dynamic, composable run time that can be provisioned with only what your application requires and responds dynamically to configuration changes as your application evolves.

DevOps Practitioner Series: “Waste Not Want Not”

To support digital transformation imperatives, organizations are increasingly exploring DevOps style approaches for the continuous delivery of high quality software. Unfortunately, however, many enterprises remain burdened with accumulated technical debt and legacy wasteful practices – waste that can quickly inhibit the flow of value to customers and the business. Lean thinking provides organizations with a framework by which to quickly identify all forms of waste impacting the flow of value, which DevOps practitioners can apply in a software development context to quickly pinpoint and eliminate 8 elements of waste across people, process and technology dimensions. This paper presents the 8 elements of waste framework, strategies needed to identify and eliminate waste, and the metrics needed to measure effectiveness.

Visualisations 101

Visualisations, if done right, can do just that. They have the ability to tell a story through the images displayed by guiding users toward a conclusion about their data and empowering them to make a decision based on that.

You wouldn’t write a book without a riveting plotline, would you? So don’t leave your data out in the cold without a story to back it up. But where do you start? How does storytelling work through visualisations?

Why Continuous Deployment is critical to your digital transformation strategy

The application economy poses several challenges to a digital transformation strategy. To truly capitalize on the opportunity, organizations like yours have to think bigger than small-scale augmentations or throwing more resources at the problem. Such “solutions” might work in isolated cases, but they’ll never move the needle enough or drive competitive differentiation. With Continuous Deployment, you can transform and accelerate the SDLC, so complex deployments occur in hours or minutes, not weeks or days.

Meeting Market Demands for Delivery of Innovative, New Application Services

In today’s fast-moving, ultra-competitive business landscape, the days of enterprises spending months—or even years—building, testing and releasing an application, service or new set of capabilities to the market are over. Customers, technology users and the market as a whole are more nimble than ever before, and their demands for innovative new functionality have grown in concert. In other words, customers are no longer content to wait for the next big release—nor are they willing to deal with glitches and defects when it arrives. In this brief you will learn how an enterprise release automation solution can help your organization simplify and accelerate your application delivery processes.
