June 4, 2008 Seminar Minutes and Presentation Download
The 10-year anniversary meeting of our NYNJMQ user group was held on June 4th
at JPMorgan Chase in Mid-Town Manhattan - thanks to JPMC’s generous donation of
the facility’s conference hall.
The
User Group event was a great success - over 100 users attended the knowledge/experience
sharing/exchange event, and we shared a huge10 year birthday cake for the user
group at the celebration.
Graham Oakes, Senior Messaging Engineer from JPMorgan Chase, shared WMQ Monitoring and Alerting. This is JPMorgan Chase's user experience in monitoring and alerting for WMQ. With the anticipation of user interaction to stimulate discussion, the presentation was well received.
We also had
IMPACT 2008 Theme. Our presenters, who attended
the IMPACT Conference in Las Vegas this past April, were sharing the information with
user group attendees. You could see pictures of the
Hursley Development Team and members of the user group .... who was doing that

technologies. The WMB existing facilities are now complimented with the new file

can you use them in your processing? These questions were covered in the session.

has been one of the most successful regional MQ user groups since its early
years and was granted the premium User Group status by the Global WebSphere Community – Let’s keep up the good work for our community.
