  • Oracle Takes on IBM and HP with Hardware, Software and Services Triple Play by Arif Mohamed
    CW+ a whitepaper from ComputerWeekly Oracle takes on IBM and HP with hardware, software and services triple play by Arif Mohamed This has been a landmark year for Oracle, the technology company headed by the charismatic and staggeringly wealthy Larry Ellison. Ellison, who is 65, has been chief executive officer since he founded Oracle in June 1977. He was listed the sixth richest person in the world in 2010. And his personal wealth of $27bn is a clear indication of Oracle’s success as an IT supplier. Oracle began the year by completing its $7.4bn acquisition of Sun Microsystems. The deal transformed Oracle from a software and consulting company, into a company able to compete on software, hardware and services. The deal gave Oracle Sun’s MySQL database, Sparc/Solaris servers, plus Sun’s storage hardware and flagship Java portfolio of tools and technologies. 2010 also marked the conclusion of an aggressive spending spree that has seen Oracle buying over 66 technology companies since 2002. These include CRM suppliers Siebel and PeopleSoft, middleware giant BEA Systems and storage specialist StorageTek. Six years on, Oracle has announced the fruits of its integration work, which began in 2004 when it bought PeopleSoft, which owned JD Edwards. Although Oracle has integrated the suites of applications from each subsequent merger to some degree, but it has now revealed a suite of software, Fusion Applications, which promises to unite them all for the first time through a common middleware layer, and run on optimised hardware from the Sun acquisition. Its Fusion Applications range of enterprise products, due out in January, will also give an upgrade path to enterprise users of Oracle’s legacy CRM and other business packages including PeopleSoft, Siebel and JD Edwards.

  • Focus on Apache Camel 23 3.1 Classification
    Institute of Architecture of Application Systems University of Stuttgart Universitätsstraße 38 D–70569 Stuttgart Diploma Thesis No. 3480 Complete Enterprise Topologies with routing information of Enterprise Services Buses to enable Cloud-migration Andre Grund Course of Study: Software Engineering Examiner: Prof. Dr. Frank Leymann Supervisor: Dipl.-Inf. Tobias Binz Commenced: May 01, 2013 Completed: October 28, 2013 CR-Classification: E.1, K.6 Abstract The Enterprise Service Bus is an important part of todays enterprise IT landscape. It offers the integration of applications build on different platforms without adaptation. This is accomplished by offering message transformation and routing capabilities of client requests to the designated endpoint service. However, Enterprise Service Buses also introduce an additional indirection between the client and the called backend application. Enterprise Topology Graphs capture a snapshot of the whole enterprise IT and are used in various use cases for analysis, migration, adaptation, and optimization of IT. The focus of this work is to enhance the ETG model with structural and statistical information about an enterprise. However, due to the decoupled architecture the information is hidden inside the ESB and not directly accessible. Furthermore, the arrangement and semantics of the routing entities are unknown. The existing ETG Framework includes the automated discovery and maintenance of ETGs, but offers no solution for ESB components in the enterprise IT. This thesis provides an in depth analysis of the ESBs Apache Camel and Apache Synapse. It applies information gathering concepts and evaluate them with a prototypical implementation of an ETG Framework plugin. Using tailored information gathering and presentation methods to enhance ETGs with routing information.

  • An Introduction to the Enterprise Service Bus
    An Introduction to the Enterprise Service Bus Martin Breest Hasso-Plattner-Institute for IT Systems Engineering at the University of Potsdam, Prof.-Dr.-Helmert-Str. 2-3, D-14482 Potsdam, Germany [email protected] Abstract. The enterprise service bus (ESB) is the most promising ap- proach to enterprise application integration (EAI) of the last years. It promises to build up a service-oriented architecture (SOA) by itera- tively integrating all kinds of isolated applications into a decentralized infrastructure. This infrastructure combines best practices from EAI, like message-oriented middleware (MOM), (Web) services, routing and XML processing facilities, in order to provide, use and compose (Web) services. Because the term ESB is often used to name different things, for exam- ple an architecture, a product or a ”way of doing things”, I point out in this paper what exactly an ESB is. Therefore, I first describe what distinguishes the ESB from former EAI solutions. Second, I show what the key components of an ESB are. Finally, I explain how these key components function alone and how they work together to achieve the aforementioned goal. 1 Introduction Due to the ongoing globalization, enterprises all over the world have to face a fierce competition. In order to stay in business, they constantly have to automate their business processes, integrate with their business partners and provide new services to their customers. With the changing demands in business, the goal of IT has also changed. Today, IT has to actively support enterprises in global competition. Therefore, it has to make business functionality and information available across the enterprise in order to allow software engineers to create, automate and integrate business processes and company workers to access all kinds of information in a unified way via a department- or enterprise-wide portal.

  • ESB and SOA Infrastructure
    eBook ESB and SOA Infrastructure The Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is a form of plumbing that enables effective SOA implementation. But understanding the ESB remains an industry-wide quest. Open source consultant Jeff Genender lists a message bus first on his list of the basic building blocks of a successful SOA infrastructure. And yet, some recent Forrester survey results show that first-time SOA infrastructure purchases maybe shifting from ESBs to other SOA technologies. Read this eBook to learn more about ESBs including: • The role of ESBs in application integration • Tips on open source and SOA infrastructure from Jeff Genender • Forrester's take on where the ESB fits in today's enterprise architecture Sponsored By: SearchSOA.com eBook ESB and SOA Infrastructure eBook ESB and SOA Infrastructure Table of Contents The ESB and its role in application integration architecture Working with ActiveMQ – Tips from TSSJS presenter Jeff Genender part one On SOA infrastructure – Tips from TSSJS presenter Jeff Genender part two Forrester analysts: SOA still strong Resources from FuseSource Sponsored By: Page 2 of 10 SearchSOA.com eBook ESB and SOA Infrastructure The ESB and its role in application integration architecture By Alan Earls Although enterprise service busses (ESBs) are not new, they can continue to be a nexus for confusion. After many years and many implementations, what they do, how they do it and whether specific products can help create a SOA are all still matters of contention. Chris Harding, a forum director for SOA and client computing at The Open Group, argues that there isn’t always clarity regarding the nature of ESBs.

Toteutukseen voidaan käyttää apuna eri sovelluskehyksiä, mutta ne eivät vält- tämättä takaa mitään standardoitua tapaa tehdä integraatio. Tätä varten on luotu joukko ohjeita (Enterprise Integration Patterns, EIP), jotka kuvaavat hyväksi havaittuja tapoja tehdä integraatioita. Tässä työssä keskitytään näiden mallien tutkimiseen ja siihen, miten niitä voidaan hyödyntää yritysjärjestelmissä.

Before we talk about ESB, it is a better idea to talk about SOA. What is ESB SOA? I acronym for Service-Oriented Architecture I According Eben Hewitt [Hewitt 2009], \SOA is a kind of architecture that uses services as building blocks to facilitate enterprise integration and component reuse through loose coupling." I According James Bean [Bean 2009], \A service-oriented architecture (SOA) is a combination of consumers and services that collaborate, is supported by a managed set of capabilities, is guided by principles and is governed by supporting standards." ( (((( ((( (What((( is ESB SOA? Back to ESB I acronym for Enterprise Service Bus I ESB is the backbone of SOA.[Hewitt 2009] I From same idea of hardware bus, ESB is responsible for transport, network, routing, delivery of messages and manage acess to applications and services. I ESB is a software architecture for middleware that provides fundamental services for complex architectures or provides features required to SOA. [SearchSOA.com 2010] "In essence, ESB does for distributed heterogeneous back end services and applications and distributed heterogenous front-end users and information consumers what middleware is really supposed to do: hide complexity, simplify access, allow developers to use generic, canonical forms of query, access and interaction, handling the complex details in the background." [SearchSOA.com 2010] Why use ESB? [Hewitt 2009] I SOA without ESB repeats the past complexities of systems, where each node requires an adapter to connect to every other node, making this nodes tighly-coupled.

  • Technical Brief-Using Open Source Infrastructure to Implement The
    Technical Brief May 2012 SEARCH The National Consortium for Justice Information and Statistics Using Open Source Infrastructure to Implement the Global Reference Architecture By Yogesh Chawla SEARCH The Global Reference Architecture (GRA)1 identifies a small but significant set of infrastructure components that are core to any GRA implementation. These components include: Adapters: Components that implement the “provider” side of a service interaction, typically by receiving messages and interacting with the internal systems or business processes of a service provider agency. Connectors: Components that implement the “consumer” side of a service interaction, typically by observing data changes or “triggers” in a consumer agency’s internal systems or business processes, and initiating a message transmission to a service provider. Intermediaries: Special adapters that “mediate” information exchanges between participating organizations, performing such operations as transformations, routing, validation, and message aggregation; intermediaries reside on a broker, which exists in a “common space” between the partner organizations. The communication between these components must adhere to the GRA Service Interaction Profiles (SIPs), which in practice means that interactions must be via standards-conformant Web Services protocols. 1 The GRA is an information exchange solution designed to cut 80 percent of implementation time and costs for state and local justice agencies through reuse of established promising practices in information technology architecture and design. For details, see http://it.ojp.gov/default.aspx?area=nationalInitiatives&page=1015 Using Open Source Infrastructure to Implement the Global Reference Architecture Page 1 Figure 1 shows how these components relate to one another in the context of a typical justice information exchange.
