Architecting On Demand Solutions, Part 22: Define and Deploy WebSphere Clusters Using Rational Software Architect WebSphere Cluster Creation Pattern

Overview

In this paper, the reader will discover how to use the newly released WebSphere Cluster Creation Pattern to build and deploy WebSphere clusters. First, the WebSphere Cluster Creation Pattern is imported into Rational Software Architect. Next, a new UML model is created to which this pattern can be added, which encapsulates best practices for deploying WebSphere clusters. By applying a WebSphere profile to this model along with the pattern, the model will be able to define all of the components of a WebSphere cluster.
