Minimum to know about Websphere 6

Question

Hi,

I'm unemployed and I have a job interview tomorrow where knowledge about Websphere 5.x and Websphere 6.x is required. I only use Tomcat and Glassfish.

What is the strict minimum to know about Websphere? They will ask me if I have ever used it and I will say no but I would like to have a few things to say in order to lower the impact of not knowing it.

Thank you very much for your help

Answer 1

You need to know just enough to be able to rip it out and replace it :-)

Answer 2

Besides the obvious (its file structure, deploying an app, etc.) maybe you can surprise the interviewer by mentioning some features version 6 incorporated. I found really useful to read changelogs to understand the features of a software version
