Abstract

Today's E-Commerce systems are a complex assembly of databases, web servers, home grown glue code, and networking services for security and scalability. The trend is towards larger pieces of these coming together in bundled offerings from leading software vendors, and the networking/hardware being offered through service delivery companies. In this paper we examine the bundle by looking in detail at IBM's WebSphere, Commerce Edition, and its deployment at a major customer site.
