IBM WebSphere Service Registry and Repository V8.0 for Administrators

Overview

This course is designed to teach you how to install, secure, and maintain IBM WebSphere Service Registry and Repository.

IBM WebSphere Service Registry and Repository provides a robust, centrally managed system of record for service artifacts within a service-oriented architecture (SOA). Your organization can get more business value from your SOA by using WebSphere Service Registry and Repository to store, access, and manage service metadata so that services can be effectively shared, managed, and governed.

This course uses an interactive combination of instructor-led lectures and hands-on lab exercises. The course begins by introducing you to the concept of service registries and to the architecture of WebSphere Service Registry and Repository. In subsequent units and exercises, you learn how to install, deploy, and administer WebSphere Service Registry and Repository environments. You also learn how to troubleshoot and configure role-based security on WebSphere Service Registry and Repository.

The lab environment for this course uses the Microsoft Windows platform.
