Maximo Quest

WebSphere  Liberty (WLP) is a new age Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE) application server that provides support for Microservices, Containers, and Cloud while providing the ability to speed up the development as it has a very low boot-up time. One of the biggest issues with the traditional WebSphere Appl i cation Server is that it takes too much time to start any application. For Maximo, this results in extended downtime during deployment in Production Instance and increased development time for Java Customization. Developers tend to go for a hot deployment approach while developing any customization which sometimes results in problems like changes not loading properly or other caching issues. Maximo 7.6 running on IBM WebSphere Liberty profile helps to overcome these issues. This also gives the ability to run local Maximo instance for developers on their computer. For WebSphere liberty, the Maximo workload is broken into multiple different applications which provides the ability for

Containers are becoming popular day by day and provide great flexibility of running the instance locally and play around for developers. For Maximo developers, it is even more relevant as there is no need to coordinate with others while enabling admin mode, or restarting the server, etc for any developmental need. Docker for Maximo can be used by Developers to run their isolated local instance. A Docker container image is a lightweight, standalone, executable package of software that includes everything needed to run an application: code, runtime system tools, system libraries, and settings. While working with docker, the following are some of the frequently used commands which every Maximo consultant should know. Happy Dockerizing!
