12 Keeping Commerce Applications Updated WebSphere Commerce 5.1 to 5.6 Migration Guide
WebSphere Application Server now uses a web based interface which can be
accessed at http://<hostname>:9090/admin by default. You must have
application server named “server1” running to access this interface.
You will also notice that WebSphere Application Server no longer requires a
database or a web server to be installed.
2.2.3 Database Server
DB2 Universal Database V8.1.5 is included with WebSphere Commerce V5.6. In
addition, Oracle9i (9.2.0.1) Enterprise Server and Standard Edition are
supported (not included). The Database Server is used for the WebSphere
Commerce instance database and the WebSphere Commerce Payments
database.
The WebSphere Commerce instance database is used for store configuration
data such as taxes, shipping, customer profile information, and the product
catalog.
The WebSphere Commerce Payments database is used for payment
configuration, such as accounts, payment types, cassettes and payment
transaction data.
The database server software can be installed on the same node as WebSphere
Commerce or on a remote Database Server node.
2.2.4 WebSphere Commerce Server
The WebSphere Commerce Server is a WebSphere enterprise application,
which runs on its own application server within the WebSphere Application
Server. The WebSphere Commerce application software is installed via the
WebSphere Commerce Installer.
After installation, WebSphere Commerce must be configured using the
Configuration Manager. The Configuration Manager is used to create the
WebSphere Commerce instance. During instance creation, an application server
for the WebSphere Commerce Server and the enterprise application is deployed.
For most runtime topologies, the configuration of the WebSphere Application
Server is performed for the user via the WebSphere Commerce Configuration
Manager. When adding a remote Web server, remote WebSphere Commerce
Payments node, and clustering using the WebSphere Application Server
Network Deployment Edition, some manual configuration is needed.
