External sources can trigger events and workflows via various integration points, e.g. via WebServices, via commandline scripts or via APIs. The next feature release includes new features development like, replace the existing web services implementation with completely new architecture, migrate the product to JDK 6 and in turn to latest versions of application servers like from Websphere Application Server(WAS) 6.x to WAS 7.x, Weblogic 9.x to Weblogic 11g, JBoss 4.x to JBoss 5.x and enhancements to existing testing framework by introducing new tools for code quality.

• During the migration major code changes can be occurred as different specifications has been followed by WAS 5.1 and WAS 6.1 server. Like, WAS 5.1 supports till JSP 1.2 only, where WAS 6.1 supports JSP 2.0 also. So, in this case one should aware about different J2EE specifications and one should know the differences between them.

• In case of web services migration, major challenge exist in the re-implementation of web service in JAX-RPC standard. Existing web service implementations are in Apache SOAP. While migrating the web service to JAX-RPC standard on WAS 6.1 care should be taken such that existing client should not be affected. That means the request and response XMLs needs to be remained as is on the wire.
