Migrating Spring to Java EE
Paul Bakker — Senior Developer, Luminis
The Spring Framework has no doubt played a major role in evolving how we write enterprise applications on the Java platform today, but it is still a proprietary framework owned by a single company. The age of having to rely on such proprietary frameworks in order to develop decent enterprise applications is now over, and using Java EE 6 has become an even easier way to develop enterprise applications based on standards, which makes it the best choice for any enterprise application.
In this session, you will experience how to migrate a typical, full-stack Spring application to a standards-based, completely portable Java EE 6 application, including integration tests. This talk has been given at several conferences around the world, including JavaOne, and now includes a sample application that has been migrated from Spring to Java EE.

Understanding the Application Memory Wall
Gil Tene — CTO, Azul Systems
The original “memory wall,” first predicted in the mid 1990s, was supposed to have emerged by now, with applications stretching server capabilities to their limits. However, today’s typical application instance only utilizes 5-10% of a modern server’s capacity, and the percentage is dropping.
In this session, Gil Tene, CTO, Azul Systems, will discuss the application memory wall and the likely causes of an observed, decade-long stagnation in application instance memory growth and consumption.
Gil will analyze the key technical challenges that have led to the emergence of the Application Memory Wall, reviewing the relevant state of the art in garbage collection within managed run times in general, and in commercial Java Virtual Machines in particular. He will also outline the main technical problem areas that need industry attention, and show how solving these problems can lead to a post-Wall era, an era in which applications will once again be free to productively and naturally consume the abundant compute resources available in modern servers.

Improving Mobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) Communications with Red Hat Enterprise MRG Messaging
Rich Lucente — Middleware Solution Architect, Red Hat
With the transformation to a data-centric fighting force, reliable mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) communications are critical to support today’s warfighter. MANETs, commonplace in tactical communication environments, present challenges in providing timely delivery of critical information. TCP/IP in a network with multiple unreliable links can perform poorly when there are random packet drops.
Intelligent message forwarding and routing can overcome these challenges. Rather than attempting end-to-end communications that traverse multiple unreliable links, Red Hat’s recommended approach is to utilize many intermediate message brokers, enabling data to reliably migrate hop-by-hop toward the intended destination.
Red Hat Enterprise MRG Messaging, born out of the performance-critical needs of the financial services industry, is finding application in the mobile space. Leveraging the wire-level standard Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP), intelligent routing solutions based on Red Hat Enterprise MRG Messaging are penetrating many mobile communication use cases.
In this session, you’ll learn how multiple Red Hat Enterprise MRG Messaging brokers can overcome challenging network environments. Join Rich Lucente as he discusses how intelligent message forwarding and routing with Red Hat Enterprise MRG Messaging can overcome the challenges of a MANET network. Rich will also provide a short demonstration, leveraging Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 network simulation capabilities, to highlight the performance advantage of brokered data communication.

Going Mobile with your RichFaces Applications
Brian Leathem — Senior Software Engineer, Red Hat
The mobile web is a hot topic as many developers are curious about how they can tap into this market while leveraging their existing skill-sets and technology investments. The good news is that as a JavaServer Faces (JSF) developer, you can make your application mobile by taking advantage of the mobile-compatible components and other framework improvements introduced in RichFaces 4.1.
In this session, Brian Leathem, RichFaces project lead, will use the RichFaces Mobile Showcase as a case study to demonstrate best practices in making RichFaces applications mobile compatible. This Showcase is one of Red Hat’s most widely viewed public demos with ~50,000 hits per month and is deployed on Red Hat’s PaaS offering, OpenShift.
Brian will also explain how to overcome obstacles of existing desktop-based frameworks (like JSF) by using capabilities available with HTML5. He will discuss the mobile web’s “single page” programming model and how attendees can convert any existing web app to work on mobile devices. And throughout the session, Brian will answer some of the many questions that must be addressed when taking any web application mobile, including:
- How do I support my application across browser and across device?
- How can I leverage HTML5 features with my existing application?
- Which JavaScript framework should I use?
- How does HTML5 tie back into my enterprise infrastructure?

What Data Grids Mean to Cloud, PaaS, & Enterprise Java
Manik Surtani — Senior Principal Software Engineer, Red Hat
In this session, Manik Surtani will discuss why scaling out is something we have all come to expect from cloud and Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) deployments, and how this expectation puts a lot of undue pressure on data storage.
Data grids are often seen as a solution to such scalability issues, but standardization is very important and to date, the enterprise Java ecosystem has been lacking any concerted effort in standardizing data grids. Until now.
Manik, the technical architect of Red Hat JBoss Data Grid and the spec lead of JSR 347, data grids for the Java platform, will also discuss what you can expect from JSR 347 and how it is set to turbocharge enterprise Java.

JBoss Polyglot: Java & Beyond
Dr. Mark Little — Senior Director, Middleware Engineering, Red Hat
Bob McWhirter — Consulting Software Engineer, Red Hat
For over a decade, Red Hat has been investing in the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), building frameworks and servers to solve large-scale problems using Java. In the past decade, many promising non-Java languages have targeted the JVM as an ideal runtime. From Ruby, to Lisp, to Javascript, Red Hat has found that the facilities they have created to support enterprise Java programmers can also benefit a new generation of engineers using alternative languages. Redesigning the wheel from scratch for each language makes no sense, so through its Polyglot efforts, Red Hat multiplies the power available to each language with ease.
In this talk, Mark Little and Bob McWhirter will demonstrate how existing JBoss technologies are made available to a variety of languages, demonstrating aspects of TorqueBox for Ruby, Immutant for Lisp/Clojure, and AS.js for Javascript. They will also outline plans to go beyond the application-server, where other languages may touch upon individual frameworks and projects.

JBoss Enterprise Middleware & Big Data
Justin Hayes — Senior Architect, Red Hat Consulting, Red Hat
JBoss Enterprise Middleware and big data are changing the technical landscape of some of the largest producers and consumers of information and data across commercial and government domains. Most of us are aware of the quality and usability of big data technologies such as Apache Hadoop, Cassandra, and others. They have largely commoditized the space, making it very easy to bring a big data capability to any organization. One area that is very underdeveloped, however, is the intersection of big data with enterprise middleware and open source solutions and offerings.
Red Hat fills this gap, allowing you to easily integrate these technologies into an enterprise-class, comprehensive middleware solution. With JBoss Enterprise Middleware, you can add big data capability to your middleware infrastructure and extend the big data tools with sophisticated middleware functionality.
Red Hat Consulting has developed a series of integrations to address real-world big data extension challenges faced by its clients. The solution architecture defined in this project includes the following:
- An extensible data storage pipeline using JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform
- A custom indexing and search layer using JBoss Enterprise BRMS and Red Hat JBoss Data Grid
- A distributed, in-memory data grid for real-time big data using Red Hat JBoss Data Grid
- Data virtualization for integrated views of big data and conventional (e.g., relational, file, etc.) sources using JBoss Enterprise Data Services Platform
In this technical presentation, Justin Hayes will provide a detailed look into how the components of this project work together to fill the big data and middleware gap. Attendees will see tools that they can use on their own projects, as well as concrete examples of how to integrate JBoss Enterprise Middleware with Hadoop and Cassandra.

SOA at Scale with SwitchYard
Keith Babo — Senior Software Engineer, Red Hat
Scalability is recognized as a critical requirement for service-oriented applications in the enterprise, yet the definition of this requirement is often limited to runtime performance alone. As developers spend time in the trenches creating enterprise services, the definition of scalability quickly expands to include other dimensions.
Is the solution easy to use right from the start and how quickly does ease-of-use degrade when applications become more complex? How does the solution scale to multiple development teams? Can the application runtime scale to accommodate deployment requirements both on-premise and in the cloud?
In this session, Keith Babo will introduce SwitchYard, the next-generation Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) from JBoss, and explore how it can be used to address a spectrum of scalability concerns related to service-oriented architecture (SOA). The session will include use cases, concrete examples, and a demo of how to get work done with SwitchYard, as well as other topics, including:
- Integrating disparate service models seamlessly (e.g., Java EE, BPM, etc.)
- Common patterns related to service-oriented integration
- Incorporating runtime and design-time governance into your services
- Using policy to define and enforce consistent runtime behavior
- Deployment considerations when moving your application to the cloud
Join us and see a core component of the upcoming JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform 6 in action.

Real-time Intelligent Messaging for the Enterprise with Red Hat Enterprise MRG Messaging
Derrick Kittler — Solution Architect, Red Hat
Vamsi Chemitiganti — Principal Solution Architect, Red Hat
As enterprise application infrastructures age, the tenancy for entropy within their environments increases. In time, applications have a natural propensity for siloing and becoming walled-off from other applications and infrastructure limiting their overall value and business applicability. While messaging-oriented middleware and service-oriented architecture (SOA) work to solve some of these issues, often times more lightweight and and real-time infrastructure-level solutions are required.
Complex event processing (CEP) fits inside an application infrastructure as a single point of truth when reasoning across streams of events, fostering real-time awareness and integration of applications. Business Process Management (BPM) augments the application infrastructure providing a framework for managing long-running tasks and modeling finite inter-application business processes and workflows. Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) is an emerging messaging standard and wire-level protocol that promises inter-operable messaging within heterogeneous application environments.
In this session, Derrick Kittler and Vamsi Chemitiganti will explore the challenges enterprises face when looking to refactor existing application assets in new ways to achieve business agility. They will present a real-time intelligent messaging approach that unifies CEP with BPM leveraging AMQP as the messaging fabric. Through example code and demonstration, Derrick and Vamsi will illustrate how event reasoning, rules, and BPM can be leveraged using a messaging agnostic protocol to show how applications achieve higher levels of business value.
After attending this session, attendees will better understand:
- CEP, BPM (JBPM5), and AMQP
- How AMQP-based messaging, CEP, and BPM can be applied to design and develop application infrastructures that integrate application silos
- How JBoss Enterprise Middleware can help achieve that goal through JBoss Enterprise BRMS, JBoss jBPM and Red Hat Enterprise MRG Messaging messaging

In this highly-technical track, you'll learn exactly how to leverage Red Hat solutions to drive your IT strategy and your enterprise to new heights. No details will be spared.
JBoss Enterprise BRMS: Best Practices
Edson Tirelli — Senior Software Engineer, Red Hat
The adoption of a BRMS product by a company might be driven by several distinct goals, but contrary to the beliefs of many people, the achievement of such goals is usually not solely dependent on the product itself (or its methodology). Several factors determine the outcome of such endeavors and user education plays a large role in the successful use of the technology.
In this session, Edson Tirelli, senior software engineer at Red Hat, will discuss a few mistakes frequently found in implementations in the field and how to properly leverage the technology to achieve a successful implementation. Edson will also provide:
- An under-the-hood glimpse into BRMS systems
- General goals of BRMS implementation
- Best practices for JBoss Enterprise BRMS implementations
- Common mistakes on rules authoring and how to fix them
Most topics will be discussed using examples from JBoss Enterprise BRMS, but the general principles apply to any Rete-based rules engine.

The Power of Data Virtualization
Ramesh Reddy — Principal Software Engineer, Red Hat
Chuck Mosher — Manager, Solution Architects, Red Hat
Data virtualization, or the ability to abstract disparate data sources (e.g., databases, applications, file repositories, websites, data services vendors, etc.) through a single rationalized, virtual data access layer, provides a powerful tool for addressing some historically challenging integration scenarios. Data virtualization provides a more agile, lower cost data integration approach that overcomes data complexity and disparate silos to provide the complete, high quality, and actionable information that agile businesses require.
In this session, Red Hat’s Ramesh Reddy and Chuck Mosher will present JBoss Enterprise Data Services Platform, a powerful set of tools and runtime components that add data virtualization capabilities to JBoss Enterprise SOA Platform, enabling your applications and business processes to easily integrate and use data from many data sources.
There are a number of data integration use cases where the advantages of data virtualization are particularly compelling. This session will detail four of them:
- Legacy/reporting systems integration (reports, BI, dashboards, etc.)
- Enterprise canonical view abstraction (also frequently referred to as an enterprise data layer)
- Dynamic view generation (rapid and agile integration without replication)
- Materialization views (approaches to speed up even overloaded environments)
Ramesh and Chuck will cover each of these use cases in detail and will explain how a data virtualization approach provides significant advantages over traditional approaches (e.g., ETL, datamarts, hard coding, etc). They will demonstrate examples of these use cases in the JBoss Enterprise Data Services Platform (Teiid) Designer, the powerful visual data modeling component of the product, and show how easy and intuitive it is to build solutions to these integration challenges. Attendees will leave this session with a deeper understanding of the data virtualization platform and its capabilities, and will be able to make informed decisions about their own enterprise needs.
Come and see how to address your data integration challenges with JBoss Enterprise Data Services Platform.

Authentication/Authorization Services with SAML and XACML with JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6
Kenny Peeples — Senior Architect, Red Hat Consulting, Red Hat
Tony Stafford — Technical Manager for Emerging Technology Security, SPAWAR Systems Center Atlantic, SPAWAR
Web resources can be protected by multiple methods and technologies that can complicate implementation, extend coding timeframes, provide multiple maintenance locations, and introduce proprietary sign-on methods and access controls. These issues affect users and developers.
While Open Standards for Authentication (AuthN) and Authorization (AuthZ) can alleviate these challenges, some wonder:
- How can authentication and authorization services be implemented by Red Hat?
- What standards are used in implementing these services?
- How can authorization policies be implemented easily?
PicketLink and PicketBox provide the components necessary in JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 for an Identity Provider (IDP), Security Token Service (STS), Policy Enforcement Points (PEP), and Policy Decision Point (PDP). These components use the Security Markup Language (SAML) and Extensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML), which are Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) organization standards that implement authentication and authorization. Resources such as web applications and web services can be protected through these services by Single Sign-On (SSO) and policies that provide who can do what when.
In this session, attendees will learn about:
- Security Assertion Markup Language
- Identity Provider
- Security Token Service
- How assertions are used for authentication
- eXtensible Access Control Markup Language
- Policy Enforcement Point and Policy Decision Point
- How policies are created
- How policies are used for authorization
Key Notes: Using examples, this presentation focuses on how to use PicketLink for enterprise authentication and authorization services. SAML and XACML are the standards that provide the basis for authentication and authorization with JBoss Enterprise Middleware. Examples will be shown and explained on the standards and their use with JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.

Large Scale/Big Data Federation & Virtualization: A Case Study
Vamsi Chemitiganti — Principal Solution Architect, Red Hat
Derrick Kittler — Solution Architect, Red Hat
Bill Kemp — Senior Solution Architect, Red Hat
It is well understood that a significant portion of an information system’s overall value lies with the data the systems persist. In time, however, data volumes can grow to exceed the capabilities of the traditional rational database management systems (RDBMS) and their associated data warehouses. Additionally, the complexity between databases requires data denormalization into data marts, which forces data replication and increased cost.
To further exacerbate the problem, legacy systems (e.g., applications, files, mainframes, etc.) need their data integrated with standard relational stores to achieve business value. To illustrate this problem domain in detail, as well as describe an approach to a solution, a major cash securities trading system proof-of-concept from the financial services industry will be presented in this session.
Red Hat’s Vamsi Chemitiganti, Bill Kemp, and Derrick Kittler will present an overall problem description, articulate a conceptual big data architecture, and describe an implementation-level solution. They will highlight JBoss Enterprise Data Services Platform as a data virtualization solution capable of federating and virtualizing data in SQL, NoSQL, and big data environments. Further, NoSQL, MapReduce and JBoss Enterprise Data Services Platform will be presented as complementary technologies when working to create an enterprise-wide and flexible big data solution. Vamsi, Bill, and Derrick will also present major findings, including real-world hurdles and lessons learned, from this in-depth
proof-of-concept.
