The last step in designing your e-business application is to review the guidelines for how to design, develop, deploy, and manage e-business applications. The guidelines help you customize the solution design, maximize performance, and select platforms on which to deliver the solution.
Some general guidelines that apply for the designs of all solutions are:
- Pay attention to all components of the solution.
- Understand in detail the interfaces and flows between the various components.
- Plan for growth of the design.
- Use the latest levels of infrastructure and system software.
- Cache as much as possible.
These guidelines are intended primarily for IT architects and IT specialists but will be of use to anyone designing an e-business application.
Recommended technology options
Chapter 7 of Patterns: Serial Process Flows for Intra- and Inter-enterprise, SG24-6305, considers some of the key technologies relevant to the implementation of the Process-focused Application Integration pattern. Flow languages, Web Services, and Java Message Service are discussed.
Chapter 7 of Patterns: Serial and Parallel Processes for Process Choreography and Workflow, SG24-6306, considers some of the key technologies relevant to the implementation of the Process-focused Application Integration pattern. Flow languages, Web Services, and Java Message Service are discussed.
Application design
Chapters 11 of Patterns: Serial Process Flows for Intra- and Inter-enterprise, SG24-6305, discusses using the Exposed Serial Process pattern and WebSphere InterChange Server in an inter-enterprise integration scenario.
Chapters 9, 11-13 of Patterns: Serial and Parallel Processes for Process Choreography and Workflow, SG24-6306, contains scenario implementations of the Serial and Parallel Process patterns. Each scenario is implemented twice: once using a WebSphere Process Choreographer Product mapping and once using a WebSphere MQ Workflow Product mapping.
