properties for a runtime service like
logging
'instance' configurations specify
multiple resources like applications
and datasource definitions
Any of this configuration could be put into a
separate xml file and 'included' in this
'master' configuration file

13. Web Cache Example
WAS v8.5.5 provides support for WebSphere Web Cache, a.k.a. DynaCache, enabling a
local caching service for simplified development of applications
 Local server cache for dynamic web
content
webCache
 Enables developers to easily develop /
test applications for local server caching
solutions
Servlet/JSP/
application
 Same API as full WAS
 Optional disk offload
DistributedMap API

 LRU replacement policy
 Run as local server cache in production or
move applications unchanged to
distributed caching via WebSphere

14. WebSphere Extreme Scale for Distributed Web Caching
Use WebSphere Extreme Scale for greater data elasticity and higher caching qualities of
service
 Massive data volume with
Servlet/JSP/
application
linear scalability
 Elasticity: add more

instances dynamically and
runtime redistributes data
automatically.

19. Application Edition Management
Seamless upgrades from one version to the next…
What is Application Edition Management?
− Seamless upgrades without interruption
− Deploy new applications easily
− Test specific version with a select group of
users
Benefits
− Easy validation of new versions
− Supports “rolling” upgrades
− More agile and flexible deployments
− Concurrent activation
− Upgrade applications without incurring outages
 Keeping critical business apps up and
running

20. Health Management – Preventive Action Avoids Outages
Sense and respond to problems before end users suffer an outage
 Proactively deal with application issues
before they become acute problems …
automatically
 Administrative policies for health conditions
and associated corrective actions
− Examples: Memory leaks, slow response
times etc…
 Provides insight!
Results In:
− Better availability
− Less administration
− Satisfied end users

21. Health Management – Health Policies
Helps mitigate common health problems before outages occur
 Health policies can be defined for
common server health conditions
 Health Policy: If (Condition) then (Action)
e.g:
• Notify administrator (send email or
SNMP trap)
• Capture diagnostics (generate heap
dump, java core)
• Restart server
 Custom health actions are commands
or scripts
 Excessive response time means you are
monitoring what matters most:
your customer's experience!
 Each health policy can be in supervise or
automatic mode. Supervise mode is like
training wheels to allow you to verify that
a health policy does what you want
before making it automatic.
Health Conditions
• Excessive request timeouts: % of timed out requests
• Excessive response time: average response time
• Excessive garbage collection: % of time spent in GCs
• Excessive memory: % of maximum JVM heap size
• Age-based: amount of time server has been running
• Memory leak: JVM heap size after garbage collection
• Storm drain: significant drop in response time
• Workload: total number of requests

22. Dynamic Clustering
Proactively provision and start or stop application servers based
on workload demands to meet Service Level Agreements
 Associate service policies with your applications
•Let WebSphere manage to the service goals
 Optional: programmatically respond to spikes in demand
•Add or reduce application server instances as appropriate
 Pool middleware resources for higher utilization
 Decrease administrative overhead required to monitor and diagnose
performance issues
 (Since V8.5.5) Web server plugin as alternative to Java ODR.
