21. “Keep me in the Green”
The almost universal message from anyone dealing with
compliance
Keep me in the Green
Everyone from Einstein to Erasmus has said that
“prevention is better than cure”
Einstein’s quote:
Brilliant people solve problems
Geniuses prevent them
The goal of this presentation is avoiding problems
And finding a bit of a safe harbor

22. Dodd Frank Reporting Requirements
The Dodd-Frank Act requires that swap transaction and pricing data be
reported “as soon as technologically practicable.” What does that mean
under the proposed rules?
“As soon as technologically practicable” means as soon as possible,
taking into consideration the prevalence, implementation and use of
technology by comparable market participants.

_qa.pdf
MQ for guaranteed delivery of messages and High Availability to
handle failures is the prevalent implementation and use of technology
by comparable market participants.
Note: MQ H.A. is available via a special part number.

23. SPOF: Single Point of Failure
SPOF (Single Point of Failure) is a 4 letter word. That is one of the
many many words heard after hurricane Sandy
Every time there is a major outage, there are many lessons learned.
One company had a clause guaranteeing next day delivery of fuel
under any emergency. Sadly, (nor surprise) delivery proved to be
impossible during an emergency. (The employees save the day.
Preparation reduces anxiety.)
SPOFs have included: redundant firewalls that didn’t failover, air
conditioners that melted & every other unimaginable occurrence
For compliance, using multi instance or highly available
queue managers covers the clause for the prevalent
implementation and use of technology by comparable
market participants

24. WebSphere MQ & Message Broker Monitoring
Decrease Downtime w/ WebSphere MQ & WebSphere Message
Broker
Identifies common problems and automates corrective actions
Auto-discovery and immediate monitoring of complex environments
Drill-down to locate problem, identify root cause and resolve bottlenecks or
outages
Proactively Prevent Problems
Correctly configure and deploy
your WebSphere MQ infrastructure
Detect and repair problems as they
happen, or alert you to an imminent
concern
Provides key MQ and Message
Broker metrics for real-time and
historical data analysis
