What is SOA | Definition

SOA = Service Oriented Architecture ●  Architecture based on services ●  A services gives access to a capability

Key features of a service ●  Interface, contract, implementation (example breakfast) ●  Consumer, provider, registry ●  Interoperable ●  Idempotent ●  Based on standards

Type   Descrip2on   Example  

User  Interface   The  func<onality  and  data  that  is  exposed  through  services  is  combined  in  user  interfaces  such  as  portals  or  web  pages  and  mobile  applica<ons.    

HTML5  

Registry  &  Repository   Used  to  describe  services  and  events  and  their  metadata  and  ar<facts  for  poten<al  consumers.

Reference architecture | Example

●  BPM tooling because the process is deterministic ●  CRM services are implemented using the existing CRM system ●  Billing and Transport Services are implemented in ERP system ●  DMS services are offered by a DMS ●  ESB is used to expose services

Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g

Standards Based ●  BPMN ●  SCA ●  JEE, SOAP/WSDL

Packaged apps ●  WebCenter Content ●  Fusion, apps unlimited

Productivity ●  SCA Testing framework ●  Error handling framework ●  WLST

Monitoring

●  Enterprise Manager ●  BAM

Best of Breed | Or Suite?

Advantage  Suite   Disadavantages  of  Suite  

Integrated   Not  everything  is  top  of  the  line  

Performance  op<miza<ons  

Documenta<on  

One  vendor  (discount  on  deals)   Vendor  lock-­‐in  

Resources  know  mul<ple  products  in  stack   Get  more  than  you  need  

Homogeneous  environment  (DTAP)  

19  |  25  

Best of breed | Feasibility

Standards ●  Building blocks need to be integrated with each other è Enterprise Service Bus makes that easier

Development ●  Having multiple development environments works in big

organizations, not in smaller

Best of Breed | Building blocks

Best of breed | Vendor lock-in

Component   Standard   Easy  to  switch  vendor  

Services   JEE   Yes,  all  JEE  compliant  vendors.  Not,  this  *not*  include  Microso_  

Events   JMS   Yes,  all  JMS  compliant  vendors  

Service  composi<on   BPEL   Specific  extensions  from  vendors  

BPMN   No,  no  specifica<on  for  implementa<on  

Business  rules   RIF   Most  vendors  only  support  part  of  the  standard  

22  |  25  

Best of Breed | Examples

Company 1 ●  SAP for ERP ●  Microsoft BizTalk Server as an ESB ●  Tibco I-Process for process design ●  Oracle ADF, PL/SQL and Forms for back end implementations ●  Microsoft in front-end

POC ●  Multiple development environments ●  Integration issues (events) ●  Vocabulary issues ●  Not really best of breed

23  |  25  

Best of Breed | Examples

Company 2 ●  SAP For ERP ●  Oracle SOA Suite ●  Microsoft Silverlight for GUI ●  AD and OID for Identity and Access management ●  OpenText eDocs for DMS

Employee portal ●  Back end developers (JEE/Oracle) ●  Front end developers (Microsoft/AD)

25  |  25  

Conclusion

Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g ●  Complete stack (including items like BAM and BI) ●  Integrated ●  Based on standards ●  Complete

Best of Breed ●  Packaged apps are not the issue ●  Development and integration are the issue ●  Use it wisely •  front-end can be separated from the back-end •  database can be separated from the middleware
