This presentation will demonstrate a fully integrated and secured service-oriented architecture (SOA) using WebSphere Process Server, WebSphere ESB, WebSphere Message Broker, WebSphere MQ, Workplace Forms, WebSphere Portal and Tivoli Access Manager - all integrated together. We will explain the various technical challenges, integration points, and implementation details of the project. Our “Consumer Bank Account Opening Framework,” a real-world application for financial organizations, will be showcased; this includes complex forms processing, workflow, and human tasks. This session is designed to not only expand your technical knowledge of key emerging technologies but you will also learn how to leverage these technologies for industry.
