websphere Datapower XI 52 Development/Administration

The IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances allow an enterprise to simplify, accelerate, and enhance the security capabilities of its Extensible Markup Language (XML) and Web services deployments, and extend the capabilities of its service-oriented architecture (SOA) infrastructure.

Through a combination of instructor-led lectures and hands-on lab exercises, students learn how to implement the key use cases for the DataPower appliances, including XML acceleration and threat protection, Web service virtualization, Web services security, integrating with IBM WebSphere MQ and Java Message Service (JMS), and authentication, authorization, and auditing (AAA).
Students also learn how to use various problem determination tools such as logs, monitors, and probes, as well as techniques for testing DataPower services and handling errors.

The hands-on exercises give students experience working directly with an IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliance, focusing on skills such as creating XML firewalls, working with encryption and cryptographic objects, configuring service level monitoring, troubleshooting services, and handling errors.

This course is designed for integration developers who configure service policies on IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances.
