Customer Reviews & Comments
This is currently the only WebSphere 3.0 book on the market, but it's still not worth buying if you need to actually implement WebSphere or deploy enterprise Java code. The book is really a HIGH level overview of the product, and goes into greater depth on products that tie into WebSphere than on actually configuring and using WebSphere itself. As an example, it's not until Chapter 40 that the authors discuss the WebSphere Administrative Console, which is where all post-installation WebSphere configuration is done. At least half of the chapter is bulleted list of menu items. (Didn't the authors think we could read these straight off of the console?) Administration tasks are, for the most part, ignored. Chapter 21 - "WebSphere Security Services" - is a 4 page "quicky" on web security in general, and not WebSphere-specific, dispite the title. The lack of more detailed WebSphere security configuration info is an emormous omission: security in WebSphere is disabled by default, but there's not even mention of this fact! The book is useful if you need just an overview of WebSphere, but if you need reference material or technical direction then the product help files and documentation and IBM web site are much better sources of information. There's clearly a market for books to compete with and improve upon this effort.
