SOA – It’s inevitable !!

SOA is changing the traditional landscape

The ActiveMatrix Solution – Yes we can help ☺

Quick introduction to the ActiveMatrix Product Suite

Requirements

Business needs to reconfigure horizontally. (Business Velcro-ization).

Managers don’t know their requirements beforehand

IT infrastructure needs to be able to adapt rapidly to changing business processes.

SOA is changing the traditional landscape
Being agile in a “Multi – everything” environment is not easy

The life of a Developer has changed

Java, .NET, C++, C, Jscript, Python, RUBY, AJAX ..

Eclipse, Visual Studio, NetBeans, Proprietary

XML, WSDL, XSLT, XPATH, XSD …

Being agile in a “Multi – everything” environment is not easy

Architects are not spared either

Where are my services and who is using them

Standards: WS-RM, WS-Addressing,

WS-Eventing, WS-Policy, WS-Security,
WS-Trust, WS*

Service Versioning ? What will happen if

we update the service interfaces

How can I isolate developers from transport/security related information

Being agile in a “Multi – everything” environment is not easy

Operations Manager - How many knobs do I have to turn to deploy
this service ?

Who knows the Payload Profile

Need to scale dynamically at runtime

Respond to SLA’s across various

environments

Administer J2EE, .NET, home grown environments

Being agile in a “Multi – everything” environment is not easy

Business Manager - Where is my TPS Report ?

What is the current state of my business process

Why has my service stopped to work

Why is taking so long to develop

and deploy the service

Why have we not met SLA’s in the past 2 months

You can do it .. We can help ☺
Role Partitioning

There are many business and technical roles within an organization that are
required for any SOA project

The challenge is how these people can contribute effectively
• As we move from pilot to enterprise SOA projects
• As we move into the world of SOA governance

managed through the asset manager

Communication is bridged from the
Message Router to the underlying
pluggable transport (homogenous)
MNR MNR

All service endpoints are treated the

same. Duplication of services is
detected at run-time and can be used
to scale services

Services can be moved either through

the administrator. Communication will
be routed to the correct location
without client (caller) changes
ActiveMatrix For Developers

Simplified way to create services/components

Eliminate Transport Implementation – Provides Location
Transparency

Eliminate Security/Policy Implementation

Can choose preferred implementation language and tools

Container managed shared resources
ActiveMatrix For Architects

Ability to compose service by wiring components together

Provides high level view of component dependency

Allows implementation heterogeneity

Ability to expose same service on multiple transports with
zero coding

Contract first model – helps offshore development

Appendix
SOA

This slide should introduce audience to SOA and send the

message that

“Resistance is futile and SOA is inevitable”

Maybe have a background of Yoda saying it

SOA Challenges

 Heterogeneity
• Multiple platforms (hardware, OS)
• Multiple development environments (J2EE, .NET, Spring)
• Multiple languages (Java, C#, C++, RUBY, AJAX)
• Multiple Development Tools
SOA Challenges

Heterogeneity
 Service Virtualization
• Manage interactions “non intrusively” across heterogeneous
services
• Transport Bridging
• On-Board Services
• Routing and Service Version Management
• Transformations
• Security and Runtime governance
• Promote Re-use
• Message interaction patterns

Service Management
SOA Challenges

Heterogeneity

Service Virtualization
 Service Management
• Needs a single Life Cycle Management tool
• End-to-end Service Life Cycle support is critical
• Policy enforcement can’t be after thought in SOA
• Need configurable policy management and enforcement
