What is SOA?

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an approach

for building distributed systems that deliver
application functionality as loosely-coupled services

SOA:

Provides standard way to represent and interact
with application functionality

Leverages open standards

Enables reuse of services

Creates new applications from existing
components

Integrates applications outside the enterprise

Focuses on application assembly

Cost benefits and agility are drivers
JBoss JEMS is app. and integration fabric

Using JBoss Cache and clustering capabilities for

performance and scalability

Refactoring old applications

Create pools of dynamic coarse grain services

Using stateless session beans for endpoints
Focused units of functionality
Using interceptors for cross-cutting concerns

JBoss SOA Customer Insurance Company

Complexity and cost of traditional EAI drove
a different approach

Increasing number of applications including new

Oracle 11i installations need integration

Dozens of interface points to define as SOA

Used JBoss JEMS as SOA framework

Built enterprise service bus decoupling apps

Services are stateless session EJBs

Some web services

Adapter framework plugged into ESB for data

transfer and transformation

Mainframe data to JBoss SOA fabric to Oracle 11i

JBoss SOA Customer Media Company

Duplication, responsiveness, and competitiveness were

business pain points

JBoss Application Server became primary hosting

environment for SOA services

Enterprise Portal for user interaction

Light weight web services for portal consumption

> 1 million pages per day driven from SOA

Thousands of partners and companies are part of SOA
utilization

Looking at adding JBoss Portal to reduce cost and leverage

open source

Eliminate proprietary portal lock in points

The SOA Journey: More than Technology

What are the right steps to guarantee overall

success?

Implementing a Service-Oriented Architecture is a
journey: start small, build library of services, prove
ROI at each step

How can you improve ROI while reducing risk?

Requires that proprietary interfaces become
standards-based

Requires enterprise-wide governance

How can you realize the benefits of SOA?

SOA requires a combination of security,
management, integration, process, and architecture
tools
