Summary: This tutorial -- the sixth in the series -- introduces two key elements of the IBM® Autonomic Integrated Development Environment (AIDE): Apache Tomcat and Axis. Discover tooling-related gaps that the AIDE online help doesn't cover so that you can become more comfortable with the way the toolkit uses the standard open source components.

"Hit the ground running with AIDE, Part 1: Building a touchpoint" (developerWorks, April 2006): This tutorial provides you with a starting point to build on, including detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to build a touchpoint using the IBM Autonomic Integrated Development Environment.
"Hit the ground running with AIDE, Part 2: Build a real-world touchpoint" (developerWorks, May 2006): This tutorial focuses on how to tackle the problem of linking autonomic computing touchpoints with external JMX-instrumented software.
"Hit the ground running with AIDE, Part 3: Touchpoint and managed resource integration" (developerWorks, June 2006): Part 3 of this tutorial series describes a basic touchpoint interface for a managed resource. It shows how Eclipse supports the workflows for such development with TODO items and demonstrates how to provide a touchpoint-based platform for arbitrary managed resource management.
"Hit the ground running with AIDE, Part 4: Touchpoint notifications and a simple manager" (developerWorks, July 2006): This tutorial describes how to create a touchpoint that maps instrumented notifications into their touchpoint equivalent.
"Hit the ground running with AIDE, Part 5: Build an autonomic computing system" (developerWorks, September 2006): This tutorial illustrates the management of Apache Derby databases using touchpoint technology.
