Web Services Feature Pack eGA

It’s a happy, sunny afternoon in the few meters around me (I’m ignoring the rain flooding the rest of the country) because today output of the project I’ve been focussed on for the last 12 months was published. (or in IBM terminology it achieved ‘electronicGeneralAvailability’).

The Web Services Feature Pack for WebSphere 6.1 includes new support for a bunch of web services standards, enabling new levels of reliability, security, asynchronicity and consumability for WebSphere users (and those trying to interoperate with them).

It’s been a really interesting project, including lots of distributed working, open source activities, interoperability testing, and some long days, but at the end of it I’m happy that we’ve managed to combine new web services standards and existing WebSphere ‘value-add’ technologies to produce something pretty compelling. I hope our customers agree :-)
