Creating applications that provide a Web front-end to a set of enterprise backend systems involves installing and configuring several products to work together. This paper provides advice for configuring such a solution with WebSphere Portal, WebSphere Application Server, and WebSphere MQ. The example solution uses WebSphere Portal to provide the Web front end, WebSphere Application Server as the application server, and WebSphere MQ for the messaging layer to the other enterprise back-end systems. This paper also describes IBM's autonomic computing efforts with respect to configuration, and describes how this work will make configuration easier in the future.
