Book Description:
Get an inside look at how successful businesses build their e-business architectures. In this book, four IBM e-business experts capture years of experience into easy-to-follow guidelines. Deliberately focusing on Business patterns, Integration patterns, and Application patterns, the authors share with you proven architectural patterns that can help get you up and running quickly, while at the same time reducing your risks. Because today's economy demands that e-business initiatives emphasize profitability and return on investment, the authors also offer guidance on methods to minimize cost, yet ensure quality.
Many e-business applications and initiatives fail because of the lack of a comprehensive look at e-business architectures. For example, the recent crashes of many e-business applications costing millions of dollars could have been avoided if all aspects of operational issues had been addressed properly. This book offers a blueprint for avoiding such mistakes and for achieving success in the new digital economy. It also includes case studies, examples, references, and pointers to other materials at the IBM Web site www.ibm.com/framework/patterns.
This book is an excellent resource for business executives who must determine which e-business solutions to implement and are conscious of the key drivers (such as time to market and cost to implement) that govern implementing these solutions; CIOs and CTOs who are responsible for implementing e-business solutions and choosing the architecture that will provide the underpinnings of these solutions; Technical professionals (including ISVs, Web integrators, system integrators, and solution architects) who need to translate complex business requirements into applications that can be implemented using specific technologies; and Academics who wish to understand the implementation approaches that practitioners use to implement e-business solutions
Included with the book is a CD-ROM that includes: Audio/video demonstration, with links to the Web, to illustrate the concepts of the Patterns for e-business and the Pattern Development Kit; Two reports by analyst firms that provide independent assessments of the Patterns for e-business; Audio/video interviews with both an IBM customer and an IBM business partner who have had notable successes with the Patterns for e-business; Written reports of the experiences of two customers and a business partner; Example IBM Redbook: Patterns for e-business: User-to-Business Patterns for Topology 1 and 2 Using WebSphere Advanced Edition; and HTML file with links to useful IBM Web sites about the Patterns for e-business
