Using Adobe Flex in JSR-286 Portlets
This article shall show you how the Adobe Flex SDK can be used in a Portal environment to enhance the user interface for a Portlet. It has also previously been possible to use Flex with JSR-168 Portlets and alike [FlexPortal], but with the new Portlet 2.0 specification (JSR-286) some things have improved, such as the support for asynchronous requests, public render parameters and events. It will be shown what is possible with the technology combination Flex/Portlets and where the limits are.
JBoss Federated SSO
The JBoss SSO Framework is a collection of components that software developers can easily integrate within their existing web applications to create a federation of trusted web sites. The framework has support for important SSO standards such as SAML.
IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances
This series of IBM Redbooks publications is written for architects and administrators who need to understand the implemented architecture in WebSphere DataPower appliances to successfully deploy it as a secure and efficient enterprise service bus (ESB) product. These papers give a broad understanding of the new architecture and traditional deployment scenarios. They cover details about the implementation to help you identify the circumstances under which you should deploy DataPower appliances. They also provide a sample implementation and architectural best practices for an SOA message-oriented architecture in an existing production ESB environment.
The entire IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances series includes the following papers:
- “IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances Part I: Overview and Getting Started,” REDP-4327
- “IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances Part II: Authentication and Authorization,” REDP-4364
- “IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances Part III: XML Security Guide,” REDP-4365
- “IBM WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances Part IV: Management and Governance,” REDP-4366
Pass encrypted data through WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus and convert it to a JMS payload
This article describes in detail how to instrument WebSphere Enterprise Service Bus to accept SOAP messages containing encrypted portions of data, perform protocol switching, and then forward these messages to a JMS topic where the service providers are registered. You will learn how to:
- Properly define an export interface to get the SOAP HTTP message containing sensitive data.
- Configure a message selector to augment the JMS message header with selectors information.
- Introduce an XSLT transformation to match the import and export interfaces and, thus, add mediation logic even when the message contains encrypted data.
- Provide an import interface to send the sensitive data to the topic as a JMS payload.
WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances extension functions for certificate-based XML standard encryption
You will learn how it’s possible to use WebSphere DataPower SOA Appliances to promote a PKI. You will learn how to dynamically select a service provider’s certificate, perform standard XML encryption, and forward the encrypted SOAP message to the ESB.
WebSphere ESB for protocol switching of encrypted data
This article gives a complete overview of a real case scenario concerning the healthcare reservation system and described the architectural picture that has been adopted. You also saw step-by-step instructions on how to configure the ESB import binding.

The Web Services Security Threat: The Risks
Can existing network security technologies ameliorate Web services risks? Are risks the same for internal and external Web Services? The benefits and ease of use make the adoption of Web Services a foregone conclusion. The real question that enterprises must ask themselves when adopting Web Services is: what are the most cost-effective steps to mitigate the risks of deploying Web Services – to an acceptable level – for the organization? Read this white paper for an enlightening discussion of these steps.
