Automatic prerequisite discovery: One UI manage deployment of all IBM components, included DB2. 9 © 2013 IBM Corporation Advantages of the new installation infrastructure ● ● ● ● Simplified electronic images installation: TWS, DWC and all its prerequisites can be installed using Passport Advantage Simplified maintenance: All iFix and fix packs can be installed directly from Fix Central. Improved serviceability: HTML logging integrated into the tool Prerequisite and disk space check Improved user interface: • better navigation • real time validation • help online 10 © 2013 IBM Corporation Dynamic Workload Console 11 © 2013 IBM Corporation Dynamic Workload Console infrastructure evolution ● Dynamic Workload Console components: ● TWS Dynamic Workload Console UI ● 12 Mobile UI ● Self Service Catalog ● Dashboard ● Broker Dynamic Workload Console UI ● ZConnector © 2013 IBM Corporation Dynamic Workload Console infrastructure evolution ● Dynamic Workload Console software prerequisites: ● WebSphere Application Server 8.5 WebSphere is not embedded anymore in the DWC installation: it will be installed separately using Installation Manager. ● The IBM WebSphere Application Server family is the leading open standards-based Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) compliant application foundation offering broad programming model choice and lower total cost of ownership through high performance and high manageability. ● ● Jazz for Service Management 1.1 JazzSM offers infrastructural services to the UI (administration, security, reporting, etc...). The DWC web application is installed on top of the JazzSM profile ● ● Dashboard Application Services Hub 3.1 the new version of the UI based portal server, and comes with improved look and feel, improved performance, simplified deployment process on an updated software stack (Websphere 8.5, Java 7) ● the user interface in Jazz for Service Management, and provides a single portal for administering IBM products and related applications ● 13 © 2013 IBM Corporation Dynamic Workload Console infrastructure evolution ● Jazz for Service Management ● ● ● ● ● 14 Integration: Use Linked Data and OSLC ( http://open-services.net/ ) to quickly provide information that is easily consumed by multiple applications Dashboarding: Build interactive dashboards for desktop and mobile using a vast palette of widgets (such as charts, gauges, and topology) to integrate data from various Tivoli products or 3rd parties (such as from databases or files).
