    IBM Software Data Sheet Tivoli IBM Tivoli Endpoint Manager for Patch Management Continuous patch compliance visibility and enforcement With software and the threats against that software constantly evolving, Highlights organizations need an effective way to assess, deploy and manage a con- stant flow of patches for the myriad operating systems and applications in ● Automatically manage patches for multi- their heterogeneous environments. For system administrators responsible ple operating systems and applications across hundreds of thousands of end- for potentially tens or hundreds of thousands of endpoints running vari- points regardless of location, connection ous operating systems and software applications, patch management type or status can easily overwhelm already strained budgets and staff. IBM Tivoli® ● Reduce security and compliance risk by Endpoint Manager for Patch Management balances the need for fast slashing remediation cycles from weeks deployment and high availability with an automated, simplified patching to days or hours process that is administered from a single console. ● Gain greater visibility into patch compli- ance with flexible, real-time monitoring Tivoli Endpoint Manager for Patch Management, built on BigFix® and reporting technology, gives organizations access to comprehensive capabilities ● Provide up-to-date visibility and control for delivering patches for Microsoft® Windows®, UNIX®, Linux® and from a single management console Mac operating systems, third-party applications from vendors including Adobe®, Mozilla, Apple and Java™, and customer-supplied patches to endpoints—regardless of their location, connection type or status. Endpoints can include servers, laptops, desktops, and specialized equip- ment such as point-of-sale (POS) devices, ATMs, and self-service kiosks. Apply only the correct patches to the correct endpoint One approach to patch management is to create large patch files with a large update “payload” and distribute them to all of the endpoints, regardless of whether they already have all of the patches or not.

  • First International Workshop on Lightweight Integration on the Web (Composableweb’09)
    Proceedings of the First International Workshop on Lightweight Integration on the Web (ComposableWeb’09) Florian Daniel1, Sven Casteleyn2, Geert-Jan Houben3 1University of Trento, Italy [email protected] 2 Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium [email protected] 3 TU Delft, Netherlands [email protected] Copyright © 2009 for the individual papers by the papers’ authors. Copy- ing permitted for private and academic purposes. Re-publication of ma- terial from this volume requires permission by the copyright owners. II Preface While the word mashup is widely used today, to some of us it is still not really clear what a mashup is and what it is not. Some mashups focus on integrating RSS feeds, others on integrating RESTful services, SOAP services, Atom feeds, or user interfac- es. Yet, everybody recognizes that mashups represent a new way of expressing inno- vation, sometimes even user innovation, i.e., innovation in the form of simple web applications “implemented” or “mashed up” by web users. Typically, implementing a mashup means integrating resources available on the Web into a new, value-adding application. The integration may occur at the user inter- face level (most mashups do integrate presentation content, not just data), at the appli- cation logic level (web service are one of the cornerstones of mashups), or at the data level (RSS/Atoms feeds or XML files are common practices today), or at a combina- tion of them. Therefore, we say a mashup is a web application that is developed by composing data, application logic, and/or user interfaces originating from disparate sources available on the Web.
