Patterns


Patterns of Expertise: Proven best practices and expertise for complex tasks

learned from decades of client and partner engagements that are captured, lab tested and optimized into a deployable form

The pre-defined architecture of an application

• For each component of the application (i.e. database,

web server, etc)

• Pre-installation on an operating system

• Pre-integration across components

• Pre-configured & tuned

• Pre-configured Monitoring

• Pre-configured Security

• Lifecycle Management

• In a deployable form, resulting in repeatable

deployment with full lifecycle management

• Patterns Delivering superior results:

• Agility: Faster time-to-value

• Efficiency: Reduced costs and resources

• Simplicity: Simpler skills requirements

• Control: Lower risk and errors

What is a Pattern?


What is a Software Application pattern?

A Software Application pattern is…

• a model of a multi-server environment

• …represented as a file (persistent definition)

• …which can be interpreted by a deployment tool

• …and shared between users/teams

Software Application Patterns… • Can be created in Pure Application System

• Can be exported and imported for sharing across systems (including SCAS, IWD, and PureApplication)

• Are available in two types: Virtual Applications and Virtual Systems


Multiple pattern types to enable open ecosystem

Virtual System (vsys) vs Virtual Application (vapp) Patterns

vsys: Automated deployment

– Built-in knowledge to install, configure across multiple VMs

– Access or Administer the resources as you have done traditionally.

– Customizable

vapp: Managed lifecycle

– Built-in knowledge to install, configure,

integrate middleware, administer

– Once deployed, a user manages

the resultant application environment

through a radically simplified lens

provided by PureApplication System

– Optimized, automated solution


What the business wants… What’s required…

Monitoring

Lifecycle

Management


•A Virtual Application represents a collection of application components,

behavioral policies and their relationships

– Definition is agnostic to middleware product or topology

– Makes customers focus on what’s important to them – applications, SLAs

– System Manages end-end lifecycle: deploy, update, monitor, scale, undeploy

Virtual Application Pattern

What deployer defines What system deploys

Load balancer

WebSphere cluster configured with session replication

Initial instance = 3


•Pattern Type

– Represents a versioned middleware stack along with deployment and lifecycle

management automation

– Tested, certified and supported as an integrated stack

– Packaged as an archive with metadata files, licenses

• Refers to a set of versioned plug-ins

•Plug-in

– Implementation element of a pattern type

– Contains metadata that defines components, policies, links

– Contains product binaries and lifecycle management scripts

•Example:

Virtual System Pattern

A virtual system pattern represents middleware topology and

automation required to build and wire that topology

• For example: WebSphere Application Server Cluster pattern containing Deployment Manager,

one or more Custom Nodes, IBM Http Server and configuration scripts for installing applications

to the topology

PureApplication System includes pre-loaded Virtual System patterns

based on years of best practices

What deployer defines What system deploys


•Hypervisor Image

– Hypervisor (e.g. VMWare/KVM/PowerVM/zVM) specific virtual image that

contains middleware and IBM activation engine

– Image is instantiated as virtual machine (VM) when Virtual System is deployed

– Image contains XML metadata that defines Parts

– Part is a personality that an image can take upon instantiation

• E.g. WAS Image can be instantiated as Deployment Manager, WAS node,

Standalone WAS server, IBM http server etc

•Script

– Automation to configure middleware on the VM or wire different VMs together

• E.g. Typical scripts include app (EAR) installation, database driver

installation, WAS configuration such as datasource creation to talk to

database etc.

Features/Benefits Category Remarks

Rapid Deployment

Takes just 21 minutes for deploying the application pattern. Traditionally setup takes several days for a similar setup.

Auto Scaling

Managed environments scale up and down based upon business SLAs you specify;

Avoids tedious process of cluster configuration and management (capacity planning and deployment topology)

Leverages Web App Pattern scaling policy and the PureApplication System capabilities… A traditional environment requires different management setups for each middleware component

Tested with all the scaling policies provided by the Web App Pattern (CPU, response timeout, etc,)

Failover Failed virtual machines are replaced with new VMs which are configured with the old VM’s identity

Avoids tedious application server configuration for high availability

Load Balancing

Web requests are automatically load balanced across multiple virtual application servers;

Built-in elasticity depending on load; Avoids manual management of the cluster environment

Monitoring All components of virtual application environments are monitored by PureApplication System

Application Type

Ability to deploy COBOL and C applications

Ability to deploy business transactions requiring CICS and Oracle Tuxedo ATMI API based services

Lifecycle Management

Built-in components are pre-configured, tuned, and tested to enable efficient, minimal click deployment and single point of maintenance
