Applications that are designed to fit the Service Oriented
Architecture (SOA) are known as Composite Applications. Composite
applications have additional challenges for build and release
processes over traditional applications. For instance, composite
applications are often made up of elements in different source
languages, that need to be built on different platforms, and that
require coordination across multiple machines in order to produce.
Processing of composite applications frequently requires tools beyond
traditional compilers and object link editors. Rational Build Forge
provides build and release automation for development organizations.
Come to this session to learn more about automating build and release
of composite applications using Rational Build Forge. This session
will cover additonal considerations for automating and example
processes for using Rational Build Forge to build and release
applications for a Service Oriented Architecture.
Biographies
Leigh Williamson
IBM Rational Build Forge Architect
Leigh was the architect for WebSphere Application Server systems
management for many years and led the administration feature design
and development for that product prior to taking the lead for overall
product architecture for Rational Build Forge. One of Leigh's focus
items since beginning work on Build Forge has been the integration
between light-weight software development lifecycle automation and
WebSphere.
