Websphere Commerce Data Cache
- The WebSphere Commerce data cache can be configured to use DistributedMap object caches, by defining specially named.object caches in the cacheinstances.properties file.
- Object caching in specified DistributedMap instances causes each type of data to be cached in its corresponding DistributedMap object.
- Takes precedence over the dynamic caching configuration specified in cachespec.xml - the configurations are no longer read from the cachespec.xml for the objects cached using the object caches - hence priority, timeout, or inactivity settings cannot be fine-tuned using cachespec.xml and need to be defined using various DistributedMap attributes in the cacheinstances.properties file.
- Can be configured in two ways :
- Define DistributedMap objects with the default JNDI names in the cacheinstances.properties file
- Use the WebSphere Application Server Integrated Solutions Console. From the left menu, click

Business Object Document : Websphere Commerce Web Services
The WebSphere Commerce BOD command framework
architecture uses well defined interfaces to decouple the implementation
of the presentation layer, business logic layer and persistence layer.
From the business logic layer perspective, OAGIS messages are used
as the interface for making requests to retrieve business data or
invoke business logic. The BOD command framework provides the capability
to process these BOD requests and responses.
Found this really nice pictorial description of the various assets and processes involved in the BOD development in the IBM Red Book (sg247619)

Paypal Integration with WCS 6.0
PayPal is one of the most well-known worldwide payment service providers. The flow for PayPal is different from traditional payment gateways, such as Visanet®. During shopping, an online store redirects the shopper to the PayPal web site to process the payment. PayPal Express Checkout is PayPal's premier checkout solution, which streamlines the checkout process for buyers and keeps them on the merchant's site after making a purchase.
The Express Checkout button gives buyers another way to pay, and it complements merchant’s existing payment solution. Online shoppers appreciate the convenience and security of PayPal, where they can pay with their PayPal balance, bank account, or credit card.
Key Features of Express Checkout
Express Checkout is a fast, easy way for buyers to pay with PayPal. Express Checkout eliminates one of the major causes of checkout abandonment by giving buyers all the transaction details at once, including order details, shipping options, insurance choices, and tax totals.
Studies show that adding the Express Checkout button to your website can increase your sales up to 18 percent.
