Course Title: Developing Applications for IBM WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus V7

Course Duration: 5 days

Course Number: WB713G

Course Abstract: Please also see alternative option ZB713 (listed under “Online Courses”).

This five-day instructor-led course teaches you how to build and deploy mediation integration solutions using WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus and WebSphere Integration Developer.
WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus enables a service-oriented architecture (SOA) by providing a platform for business applications requiring a complex integration that will use different technologies. WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus supports a variety of integration bindings, including Service Component Architecture (SCA), Java Message Service (JMS), HTTP, and Web services. In addition, the WebSphere Integration Developer tool set can be used to create integration solutions by utilizing simplified integration mechanisms.

This intermediate level certification is intended for integration developers who are responsible for the successful development and deployment of integration solutions consistent with Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). These integration solutions are developed in WebSphere Integration Developer using mediation modules and libraries targeted to run on WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus.

Working with mediation flows, interfaces and business objects, the developer builds integration solutions. For mediation modules and libraries, the integration developer creates mediation flows based on Service Component Architecture (SCA).

The integration developer promotes component and service reuse through effective use of business integration libraries, mediation modules, and through the creation and configuration of Service Component Architecture (SCA) imports and exports. The developer needs a basic knowledge of adapters to integrate with Enterprise Information Systems (EIS).

During development and deployment, the integration developer may work closely with business analysts, application developers, system administrators and application administrators.
