    Batch Processing with WebSphere Compute Grid: Delivering Business Value to the Enterprise
    IBM RedGuide Jan
    Batch processing remains a mission critical workload for many enterprises. Existing batch applications have developed over time in a “home-grown” and silo'd fashion, with each application providing the underlying services required for the processing to occur. With today’s emphasis on reducing costs while satisfying ever-growing demands for business agility and increased efficiency, pressure has been placed on enterprises to improve the operations, development and maintenance of their batch systems. New requirements must also be addressed such as reduced windows for operation and increases in data that makes it imperative for batch systems to scale and perform. WebSphere Compute Grid can provide the answer to these requirements for improved

    Emerging technologies make WebSphere Extended Deployment Compute Grid ideal for handling mission-critical batch workload
    IBM Developerworks Apr
    IBM WebSphere Extended Deployment Compute Grid provides an enterprise grid and batch processing runtime environment for mission-critical batch workloads. In this context, batch is defined as the task of processing a tremendous amount of data within a window of time that, for globally-oriented businesses, is continually shrinking. Because enterprises require operational control, security, high availability, scalability, reliability and transactional data access, batch processing in the enterprise environment can be quite a challenge. This article describes how Compute Grid combines emerging architectural technologies that provide an enterprise application infrastructure to make the next-generation batch system a reality. These technologies i

    Build a resilient SOA infrastructure, Part 1: Why blocking application server threads can lead to a brittle SOA
    IBM Developerworks Sep
    Resiliency —defined as the continued availability and performance of a service despite negative changes in its environment—is vital in a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). An SOA infrastructure must ensure that a service is highly available regardless of unpredictable conditions, such as sudden and significant degradation of network latency, increase in database response times, or degradation of dependant services. This article, the first in a series that describes design issues and techniques for building resilient SOA infrastructures, focuses on how IBM® WebSphere® Application Server for z/OS® factors into the SOA and how it contributes to SOA resiliency.

    IBM developerworks Nov
    A goals-oriented, virtualized run time, such as one provided by the Operations Optimization component in IBM WebSphere Extended Development (XD), can help you reduce your data center's overall hardware footprint and middleware complexity. However, using such a run time requires that you understand some new concepts and consider their ramifications. This article defines a checklist of areas to consider when deploying applications into production when you choose a virtualized, goals-oriented environment.

    Batch Modernization on z/OS
    IBM RedBook Dec
    Mainframe computers play a central role in the daily operations of many of the world's largest corporations, and batch processing is a fundamental part of the workloads that run on the mainframe. A large portion of the workload on IBM® z/OS® systems is processed in batch mode. Although several IBM Redbooks® publications discuss application modernization on the IBM z/OS platform, this book specifically addresses batch processing in detail. Many different technologies are available in a batch environment on z/OS systems. This book demonstrates these technologies and shows how the z/OS system offers a sophisticated environment for batch. In this practical book, we discuss a variety of themes that are of importance for batch workloads on z/OS

    Stable Agentic Control: Tool-Mediated LLM Architecture for Autonomous Cyber Defense
    May
    Agentic systems involved in high-stake decision-making under adversarial pressure need formal guarantees not offered by existing approaches. Motivated by the operational needs of security operations centers (SOCs) that must configure endpoint detection and response (EDR) policies under adversarial pressure, we present a tool-mediated architecture: LLM agents use deterministic tools (Stackelberg best-response, Bayesian observer updates, attack-graph primitives) and select from finite action catalogs enforced at the tool-output interface. A composite Lyapunov function machine-checked in Lean 4 with zero sorry certifies controllability, observability from asymmetric sensor data, and Input-to-State Stability (ISS) robustness under intelligent a
