Summary: Part 5 of this article series shows how to combine the software
development features of IBM® Rational® Application Developer with
the virtual application pattern assembly capabilities of IBM Workload Deployer
to develop cloud applications. With Workload Deployer, you can assemble
virtual application patterns consisting of Java™ EE enterprise applications,
Web applications, OSGi applications, and other types of components. However,
as an application developer, it is predominantly the source code of the
components of the pattern you need to work with the most. The latest
integrated features of Rational Application Developer and Workload Deployer
will help you develop virtual application patterns from the source code on
up.
