Architecture: When, how, and if to adopt microservices - Microservices are not for everyone! If you're a small shop, a monolith provides a great amount of value and reduces the complexities involved. However as your company grows, this monolith becomes more difficult to maintain. We’ll look at how microservices allow you to easily deploy and debug atomic pieces of infrastructure which allows for increased velocity in reliable, tested, and consistent deploys. We’ll look into key metrics you can use to identify the right time to begin the transition from monolith to microservices.

Amazon EBS provides highly available, reliable, durable, block-level storage volumes that can be attached to a running instance
EBS as a primary storage device is recommended for data that requires frequent and granular updates for e.g. running a database or filesystems
An EBS volume behaves like a raw, unformatted, external block device that can be attached to a single EC2 instance at a time
EBS volume persists independently from the running life of an instance.
An EBS volume can be attached to any instance within the same Availability Zone, and can be used like any other physical hard drive
This session, led by James Hamilton, VP and Distinguished Engineer, gives an insider view of some the innovations that help make the AWS cloud unique. He will show examples of AWS networking innovations from the interregional network backbone, through custom routers and networking protocol stack, all the way down to individual servers. He will show examples from AWS server hardware, storage, and power distribution and then, up the stack, in high scale streaming data processing. James will also dive into fundamental database work AWS is delivering to open up scaling and performance limits, reduce costs, and eliminate much of the administrative burden of managing databases. Join this session and walk away with a deeper understanding of the underlying innovations powering the cloud.

Organizations need to gain insight and knowledge from a growing number of Internet of Things (IoT), APIs, clickstreams, unstructured and log data sources. However, organizations are also often limited by legacy data warehouses and ETL processes that were designed for transactional data. In this session, we introduce key ETL features of AWS Glue, cover common use cases ranging from scheduled nightly data warehouse loads to near real-time, event-driven ETL flows for your data lake. We discuss how to build scalable, efficient, and serverless ETL pipelines using AWS Glue. Additionally, Merck will share how they built an end-to-end ETL pipeline for their application release management system, and launched it in production in less than a week using AWS Glue.

Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.

• Best for development use
• Not reliable – user can make typos
and break configuration, leading to
costly outages
• Time consuming when managing
more than 1 server
• No auditing, limited security
• Not recommended for production
Administrative GUI
• Easy to understand
• Auditing and security provided
• Configuration consistency checks

• Often requires repetition of commands
to be applied to multiple servers
• Despite configuration consistency
checks and input validation, manual
keystrokes and mouse clicks may lead
to errors and downtime in production
• Not recommended for production
Command Line
Script
• Repeatable and predictable (no user input is
needed, no typos, no wrong mouse clicks)
• Can automate management of large
configurations by iterating over resource lists
(no need to manually repeat steps)
• Best for production use
• Can be difficult to learn and master
• High overhead for development use

25. WebSphere Runtime Performance Advisor
• The Performance and Diagnostic Advisor uses Performance Monitoring
Infrastructure (PMI) data to provide recommendations for performance tuning
• Running in the JVM of the application server, this advisor periodically checks
for inefficient settings, and issues recommendations as standard product
warning messages in the log file and GUI console
Sample output:
Increasing the Web Container thread pool Maximum
Size to 48 might improve performance:
-Average number of threads: 48
-Configured maximum pool size: 2
This alert has been issued 1 time(s) in a row.
The threshold will be updated to reduce the
overhead of the analysis.
Tomcat and JBoss do not offer comparable capabilities
26. WebSphere Console Command Assistance
Automatic capture of administrative actions and generation of scripts to be replayed later
• While administrator
performs actions in the
admin GUI (start, stop,
deploy, create, etc.) all his
actions are automatically
written as Jython
command script for WAS
• This script can be
customized and executed
multiple times thus saving
time to create complex
administrative actions and
reducing the learning
curve
Tomcat and JBoss do not offer comparable capabilities
27. How do Red Hat customers really use JBoss AS in
production?
• Vast majority of JBoss customers are not using clustering
• Must tolerate lower quality of services ($$$)
and
• Most JBoss customers purchase 3rd party management tools, monitoring tools,
configuration management tools, performance profilers, etc.
• 3rd party tools require license and support payments ($$$)
• 3rd party tools are not always in synch with the desired version of JBoss ($$$)
• 3rd party vendor viability poses risks ($$$)
and
• Most JBoss customers invest significant staff time to build home grown
scripting frameworks for JBoss management (a combination of shell scripting
and generation of JBoss XML files using XSLT, Java or other template
mechanism)
• Cost to develop, debug, maintain such scripts can be significant ($$$)
• New versions of JBoss (major or minor) are not 100% backwards compatible,
causing significant rework of home grown scripts and tools ($$$)
• WAS ND provides all needed administrative tools out of the box at no
extra cost
”One minute of system downtime can cost an organization anywhere from
$2,500 to $10,000 per minute. Using that metric, even 99.9 data availability
can cost a company $5 million a year” - The Standish Group
28. IBM Garbage Collection and Memory Visualizer (GCMV)
GCMV provides analysis and views of your applications verbose gc output. GCMV uses
a powerful statistical analysis engine which provides tuning recommendations in these
areas:
• Memory Leak Detection
• Detect Java heap exhaustion and memory leaks
• Detect "native" (malloc) heap exhaustion and memory leaks
• Optimizing garbage collection performance
• Analyze output from different gc modes (optthruput, optavgpause, gencon, balanced )
• Compare output from multiple logs – side by side
• Determine gc overhead, detect long or frequent gc cycles and causes
• Recommend settings to avoid long or frequent gc cycles
• Recommend optimum gc policy
• Fine tuning of Java heap size
• Determine peak and average memory usage
• Recommend Java heap settings
• Flexible user interface makes it possible to carry out further analysis of the data and
to "drill down" into the causes of trends and export of data into .csv or jpeg
Oracle Java Mission Control (JMC) is free for development use only.
JMC does provide data visualization, but it does not make tuning recommendations, nor
does it compare various run results side by side. This is a major usability issue.
29.
30. IBM WebSphere Performance Tuning Toolkit (PTT)
PTT is designed to help users tune the performance of WAS using statistical
technology. The toolkit collects performance data and consolidates it into a
multidimensional data cube.
• Find potential performance problems
• PTT shows detailed status of system with easily understood charts and forms. Users can
analyze the performance data from various perspectives.
• PTT helps to find an error as soon as it occurs - monitor the servlet errors, transaction
rollback, transaction timeout, JDBC connection timeout, thread hung, etc.
• Accelerate performance tuning process
• User can tune many servers in one step in a centralized view by running tuning scripts
within the workbench, download or upload performance related settings manually or via
script
• Health Check
• PTT can detect the performance decline and take actions automatically based on
predefined rules. Rule engine detects the abnormal symptoms according to user defined
rules (with ability to create and edit existing rules)
• Operations to facilitate problems determination
• PTT can generate thread dump and heap dump for the JVM, enable trace settings,
extract the connection pool contents
• Report engine
• Online and offline analysis and reporting (generate, export and print report)
Those using WebLogic, JBoss and Tomcat must spend considerably more effort finding
all the right tuning variables. In these products the monitoring data is scattered across
multiple locations in the Admin GUIs or worse – only available for custom JMX
programs
31.
32. IBM Monitoring and Diagnostic Tools for Java - Health
Center
Health Center is a diagnostic tool for monitoring the status of a running JVM. It uses a
small amount of processor time and memory, and can open some log and trace files for
analysis:
• Monitoring a running Java application or recorded activity for offline analysis
• Very low performance overhead allows to connect to and monitor a live Java application
(or replay recorded activity), such as CPU, environment, IO, gc, locking, threads,
memory, method tracing with timings, etc.
• Save data from a monitored Java application, then reload the saved data later on, without
making a live connection. You can load data from multiple files by loading one file, then
appending more files.
• Viewing the data collected
• Displays the data collected using different views (graphical and tabular)
• Triggering dumps
• Trigger the JVM to generate System Dumps, Heap Dumps, and Java Dumps
• Troubleshooting
• The first step in troubleshooting is to view the log files that are produced by the Health
Center client and agent. Then read the information provided for some of the common
problems that you might encounter.
• Performance hints
• The Health Center agent has little effect on performance. You can improve the
performance of the Health Center client by reducing the amount of data collected or
displayed.
• You can use the Health Center API to write your own code for manipulating Health
Center data

36. Dynamic clustering
IBM WAS ND 8.5.5 JBoss EAP 6.3
New node is added
to a cell
If node meets the dynamic selection criteria, it
is automatically added to the dynamic cluster
as potential host for the JVM
Static cluster member must be manually
defined for each participating node and
manually added to the static cluster.
Vertical stacking
(VS)
If VS is allowed, JVM process definitions are
automatically created for each node
Cluster members must be manually created
and port conflict resolution must be manually
done for each new JVM
Cluster isolation
Dynamic cluster can belong to different
isolation groups and conflicts are
automatically resolved
Manual work is required to prevent conflicts
between JVMs that must be isolated from
each other
Workload increase
If workload increases for the application, new
members of dynamic cluster are started to
accommodate such increased workload
Manual start of cluster members is required to
accommodate increase in workload
Workload decrease
When workload drops off, members of
dynamic clusters may be stopped if CPU or
memory are required for other workloads.
Lazy application start can be configured
Manual stop of instances is required to free up
resources for other workloads. Application
must always be up and running to accept
workload
Critical load and
resource shortage
When overall workload is greater than the
system can handle, service policies are
enforced such that more important
applications get priority over less important
ones and SLA policies for response times are
met. SLAs can be defined based on a rule set
based on URI, time, user properties, IP, etc.
No provision for prioritization of workload, no
SLAs for applications. Typical solution is to
create duplication by using dedicated hosts
(physical or virtual) for each workload, which
increases admin complexity, hardware and
software cost
Server properties
Server template can be updated and changes
are reflected on all members of dynamic
cluster automatically
Properties must be updated on each member
of the static cluster manually

41. Migration issues with JBoss
• Upgrade path for JBoss is manual
• Manually copy configuration files and applications to new installation
• Backwards compatibility broken between JBoss v4.x, v5, v6
• JBoss EAP v4, v5 and v6 releases have been disruptive and changed many
properties and configuration files, scripting commands, etc.
• Automated migration for WAS
• Migration tool provided as part of WAS installation media
• J2EE 1.4 version of DayTrader successfully migrated from WAS 6.1 to 7 using
migration tool
• Backwards compatibility maintained for two prior releases
These issues result in increased administration costs when using
JBoss because of lost productivity related to unnecessary software
development.

43. WebSphere Application Server Migration Toolkit
• No Charge plugins for Eclipse and RAD
Rule sets for multiple source / destination
combinations (e.g. WLS->WAS, etc.):
(a) The tool scans Java source code, JSP files
and deployment descriptors and identifies the
changes required (allows for Java upgrade also).
(b) The tool scans server configuration files
(looking for Datasources, servers, JMS settings,
etc.) and generates appropriate Liberty or WAS
configuration.
In most cases the toolkit is capable of making the
application changes itself. After the “scan” and
“conversion” are done the toolkit generates report
on the results of the migration and any manual
migration tasks (if required).

Customer can use as many licenses of WAS or Liberty on the IBM
SoftLayer for no charge as they have licenses of WAS on-prem
52. Flexible licensing options to suit customer needs
• For applications that have uneven workloads over the year the cost of WAS could be
minimized by purchasing “pay as you go” licenses for peak periods
• JBoss, tc Server do not have socket, or per user pricing
• tc Server, WebLogic and JBoss do not have On-Demand per day pricing
• Example 1: Consider Black Friday or Cyber Money with peak workloads being 10x
over any other peak in the year. With WAS you could buy licenses for that one week
(using daily charge on Power for hardware and software)! This is like 90% sale on
WAS! You don’t get that with IBM competitors
• Example 2: Consider retail chain with 100s of locations. WAS user based license for
Liberty Core or Express can be orders of magnitude less than JBoss or tc Server

Health Management
Automatically detect and handle application health problems
– Without requiring administrator time, expertise, or
intervention
Intelligently handle health issues in a way that will maintain
continuous availability
Each health policy consists of a condition, one or
more actions, and a target set of processes
Includes health policies for common application problems
Customizable health conditions and health actions
72. 72
Helps mitigate common health problems before outages occur
Health Conditions
• Excessive request timeouts: % of timed out requests
• Excessive response time: average response time
• Excessive garbage collection: % of time spent in GCs
• Excessive memory: % of maximum JVM heap size
• Age-based: amount of time server has been running
• Memory leak: JVM heap size after garbage collection
• Storm drain: significant drop in response time
• Workload: total number of requests
Health policies can be defined for common
server health conditions
When a health policy's condition is true,
corrective action execute automatically
or require approval
– Notify administrator (send email or SNMP trap)
– Capture diagnostics (generate heap dump, java core)
– Restart server
Excessive response time means you are
monitoring what matters most: your customer's
experience!
Application server restarts are done in a way that
prevent outages and service policy violations
Each health policy can be in supervise or
automatic mode. Supervise mode is like training
wheels to allow you to verify that a health policy
does what you want before
making it automatic.
Health Management – Health Policies
73. 73
Easily allows an administrator to specify the relative importance of
applications and optionally a response time goal. WebSphere then
manages your applications according to this policy.
– Service policies are used to
define application service level
goals
– Allow workloads to be classified,
prioritized and intelligently routed
– Enables application performance
monitoring
– Resource adjustments are made
if needed to consistently achieve
service policies
73
Service Policies define the relative importance
and response time goals of application services;
defined in terms the end user result the
customer wishes to achieve
What is a Service Policy?
74. 74
Dynamic Clustering
A Dynamic Cluster is a virtual cluster of
servers (JVMs) hosting the application
that lives on group of nodes
What is dynamic about a dynamic
cluster?
– App server definitions are dynamically
created or deleted based upon the node
membership policy (e.g. Servers are
created/deleted if a node is added to
/removed from a node group)
– App server definitions are automatically
updated when the server template
associated with the dynamic cluster
is updated
– App servers are started / stopped
based upon current application
demand & service policies
75. 75
Improves business results by ensuring priority is given
to business critical applications
Intelligent Routing
Requests prioritized and routed based upon administrator defined rules
– Flexible policy-based routing and control
On Demand Router (ODR) is the focal point for Intelligent Routing
A routing tier that’s aware of what’s happening on the application
server tier
– Application server utilization, request performance, etc…
Route work to the application server that can do it best
Provide preference for higher priority requests
Integrates with Health Management and Dynamic Clustering
76. 76
Caching with WebSphere DynaCache
Patented IBM technology
– used in IBM HTTP Server, EdgeServer
and WebSphere Application Server
WebSphere DynaCache
– fragments of pages (Servlet, JSP,
Portlet, POJO)
– Reduces both load and response time
– Rule-based, time-based, and
programmatic
– techniques for invalidating cache entries
– Can control external caches (WS Edge
Server)
Performance gains with:
– Static Fragments (header JSPs,
navigation bars, etc.)
– Dynamic Fragments/Pages
• stock quotes, search results, ads, levels
of service
• personalized pages using shared
information (e.g. MyNews)
Administrator controls how fragments are
cached
– Define rules based on Servlet, URI,
request/session variables, etc.

using shared business logic on a shared infrastructure; Higher throughput and lower resource
consumption on z/OS when collocated with data subsystems
Enhanced Developer Productivity: Pre-integrated
application framework, Java batch programming
model and tools to manage batch life cycle
Automation & Admin: Container managed services
for checkpoint and restart capabilities in addition to
reliable, highly available, secure and scalable
infrastructure. Integrated administration of OLTP
applications and batch jobs
Enterprise batch: Parallel batch and
integration with external job schedulers is provided
Packaging utility: Utility to package batch application that can be deployed using JEE runtime
Ease of Access & Use: Integrated with WAS V8
Quickly develop and deploy batch applications and reduce
infrastructure costs

OSGi Applications
Modular deployment and management: Separate common
libraries from application archives; manage them centrally and
across many versions, concurrently
Standards Based DI Framework: POJO development model,
with a container that manages injection of configuration, and
controls activation & deactivation, integrated with the server
In-place update: Update applications modules without restarting the
application
Java Standards Layering: Java standards such as transaction,
security, & persistence can be mixed into the componentized apps
as services
SCA Integration: Components can be decorated as SCA
components to provide coarse grain SOA services
NEW in V8.5: Support added for EJB Bundles, including metadata-
driven publication of OSGi Services
