Business Need
MN.IT is issuing this Request for Offers (RFO) for Systems Analysts (to act as Integration/Middleware Administrators), all of whom must have strong experience developing large and complex systems. The team is needed to bring several active, highly visible projects to successful completion, enabling multiple MNsure technical solutions to be deployed and fully operational. These may include several cross-agency projects with key collaborators from MNsure, MN.IT
The successful candidates will have the experience to assume immediate responsibility for (new and active) large and technically complex projects which impact current processes. The team must develop flexible and efficient plans and collaborate with matrixed project teams with multiple priorities while simultaneously fostering an environment of team building and coordination.

Apply required fix-packs to the WAS, HTTP, ESB servers
Assure the topologies in all environments are consistent from the F5 to the application server
Prepare the IBM/CURAM environment to serve static content separate from the Web servers
Replicate the HTTP Session and assure its persistence with the IBM/CURAM application
Assure the IBM/CURAM JMS Resources are declared at the cell scope instead of the cluster scope
Remove properties file-based routing and resource use, advising and recommending the applications to define required resources on the Admin console at appropriate scope
Assure outstanding and consistent application deployment documentation is maintained (Review samples of current deployment documents; list the inconsistencies observed in the documentation and the actual practical deployment; and advise application groups accordingly.)
