- 15. Overview In this session, you will learn how enabling various stakeholders with secure, role-based self-service access to WMQ leads to improved availability for applications, a reduction in the frequency and duration of incidents involving middleware, and a boost in the productivity of the entire Middleware Team. Agenda • Introduction to Self Service • Scenarios and examples using Self Service • Conclusion 15
- 16. Self Service
- 17. Self Service Self service is the practice of serving oneself... Common examples include many gas stations, where the customer pumps their own gas rather than have an attendant do it... Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs) in the banking world have also revolutionized how people withdraw and deposit funds; most stores in the Western world, where the customer uses a shopping cart in the store, placing the items they want to buy into the cart and then proceeding to the checkout counter/aisles; or at buffet-style restaurants, where the customer serves their own plate of food from a large, central selection. Source: Wikipedia 17
- 18. Self Service Requirements Safe • Oregon and New Jersey do not allow self service gas and one key reason is safety • A survey conducted by the Petroleum Equipment Institute showed approximately two-thirds of the documented cases of gas pump fires involved returning to the driver's seat. Secure • ATM and online account security are obvious examples. • Only those authorized to complete the transaction should be able to. Simple • Stakeholders may have little or no training • Interface should be intuitive and guide them to the right actions Scalable • Have to be able to handle the volume of consumers • Higher usage can be expected 18
- 19. Why the Interest in Self Service in WebSphere MQ? Drivers for Self Service in WebSphere MQ • Decreasing middleware staff • Expanding duties of the middleware staff • Stakeholders Increasing (development, operations, support) • Increased complexity of the applications 19
- 20. Stakeholders and Benefits Application Support Application Support Application Development Application Development Middleware Team Middleware Team Enterprise Architect Enterprise Architect Application Owner Application Owner User Acceptance Testing Improve quality of new releases Compare real behavior with expectations 20 Monitor applications Improve processes Lower costs Prevent performance problems Identify root cause of performance issues Faster time to repair (MTTR) Proactive Middleware Monitoring in DEV, TEST and PROD
- 21. Types of Self Service Access Self service should provide application support, DevOps, or operations the ability to: • View queue status and depth, channel usage • Examine queues, channels, queue managers, and subscriptions • Browse and manipulate application messages • Act on application specific messages (move, copy, edit, route, replay, create) 21
- 22. Self Service Summary What is our Objective? To increase the number of opportunities for the stakeholders of WebSphere MQ (and related technologies) to service themselves as long as the methods that are: • Safe • Protect the systems from damage • Secure • Can only do what are authorized to do • Simple • Easy to deploy and use • Scalable • Large stakeholder population 22
- 24. WebSphere MQ 24 WebSphere MQ Input Output To most stakeholders, WebSphere MQ is a black box…
- 25. WebSphere MQ is Broken 25 WebSphere MQ Input “WebSphere MQ is broken…, can you fix it?”
- 27. Disadvantages for Using for MQ Explorer for Self Service • Eclipse client required • Can potentially see and do more than needed • Problems not easily visible • Opening ports and client channels required27 SimpleSimple SafeSafe SecureSecure ScalableScalable
- 28. Using a Self Service Dashboard 28
- 29. Using a Self Service Dashboard 29
- 30. Advantages for Using for Self Service Dashboard • Web enabled • Restrict view and actions to required functions only • Typical problems highlighted • Describe the expected results • Link to existing run books and information • If they still need to contact middleware team • Problem diagnosis already started 30 SimpleSimple SafeSafe SecureSecure ScalableScalable

- 51. Summary
- 52. Self Service Summary Increase the opportunities for the stakeholders of WebSphere MQ (and related technologies) will reduce the effort required from the middleware team but must be: • Safe • Doesn’t make things worse • Secure • Doesn’t compromise the systems • Simple • Your mother could understand it • Scalable • Scale shouldn’t limit usage 52
