IBM is examining ways of excluding WebFacing from the interactive workload; this could make a major difference in CPU size (and therefore pricing).

Please keep in mind, that at least for now, webfacing is still counted against your interactive CPW. 

The 500 CPW is mostly batch.  Websphere app server is pretty much a CPW hog.

 

The folllowing link may help with sizing the correct system.

My opinion is that web facing is still a "young" product.  I can see it getting much better and maybe to a point where it will not count against your interactive CPW.

Another question along these lines, now that you brought this up, theminimumrequirement of 500 CPW; is that total, just interactive, or just batch -We are awaiting with baited breath a new 820, but the interactive is 120,leaving us with 480 for batch (for a total of 600cpw).I have been holding off on a rather complicated interactive SRP "system" ofprogramsthat I thought I could just webface, writing them all as cgi's could getcomplicated,and splitting out the business logic from the i/o is going to take longerthan I havebeen allotted to work on the project, so we decided to wait and see - am Igoing to haveto got the route of cgi anyhow???-----Original Message-----From: owner-web400@midrange.com [mailto:owner-web400@midrange.com]OnBehalf Of bdietz@3x.comSent: Tuesday, July 17, 2001 8:16 AMTo: WEB400@midrange.comSubject: Re: Beginner with Websphere and WDT400I have had some luck testing a small application.  the major hurdle willbe the Websphere app server.  Make sure you read the web site a get everyPTF they mention.  Be warned that the minium required CPW for WAS is about500!!.  That equals big bucks.Bryan Dietz"Carolyn S.
