Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a way of organizing software. If your company’s development projects adhere to the principles of SOA, the outcome will be an inventory of modular units called “services,” which allow for a quick response to change.This book tells the SOA story in a simple, straightforward manner that will help you understand not only the buzzwords and benefits, but also the technologies that underlie SOA: XML, WSDL, SOAP, XPath, BPEL, SCA, and SDO. And through it all, the

Web Services

by

Product Description
Like many other incipient technologies, Web services are still surrounded by a tremendous level of noise. This noise results from the always dangerous combination of wishful thinking on the part of research and industry and of a lack of clear understanding of how Web services came to be. On the one hand, multiple contradictory interpretations are created by the many attempts to realign existing technology and strategies with Web services. On the other hand, the emphasis on what could be done with Web services in the future often makes us lose track of what can be really done with Web services today and in the short term. These factors make it extremely difficult to get a coherent picture of what Web services are, what they contribute, and where they will be applied.

Alonso and his co-authors deliberately take a step back. Based on their academic and industrial experience with middleware and enterprise application integration systems, they describe the fundamental concepts behind the notion of Web services and present them as the natural evolution of conventional middleware, necessary to meet the challenges of the Web and of B2B application integration.

Rather than providing a reference guide or a “how to write your first Web service” kind of book, they discuss the main objectives of Web services, the challenges that must be faced to achieve them, and the opportunities that this novel technology provides. Established, as well as recently proposed, standards and techniques (e.g., WSDL, UDDI, SOAP, WS-Coordination, WS-Transactions, and BPEL), are then examined in the context of this discussion in order to emphasize their scope, benefits, and shortcomings. Thus, the book is ideally suited both for professionals considering the development of application integration solutions and for research and students interesting in understanding and contributing to the evolution of enterprise application technologies.

Test and Analysis of Web Services

Product Description

The service-oriented approach has become more and more popular, now allowing highly integrated and yet heterogeneous applications. Web services are the natural evolution of conventional middleware technologies to support Web-based and enterprise-level integration.

The highly dynamic characteristics of service-oriented applications means their validation is a continuous process that often runs in parallel with execution. It is not possible to clearly distinguish between the predeployment validation of a system and its use, nor is it possible to guarantee that the checks passed at a certain time will be passed at a later time and in the actual execution environment as well.

Baresi and Di Nitto have put together the first reference on all aspects of testing and validating service-oriented architectures, taking into account these inherent intricacies. The contributions by leading academic and industrial research groups are structured into four parts on: static analysis to acquire insight into how the system is supposed to work; testing techniques to sample its actual behavior; monitoring to probe its operational performance; and nonfunctional requirements like reliability and trust.

This monograph is an initial source of knowledge for researchers in both academia and industry in the field of service-oriented architecture validation and verification approaches. They will find a comprehensive survey of state-of-the-art approaches as well as techniques and tools to improve the quality of service-oriented applications.

Product Description

Service-orientierte Architektur (SOA) ist ein aktuelles Schlagwort, das nicht nur im Bereich der Softwaretechnik sondern auch im Unternehmens-Management auf sehr viel Interesse gestoßen ist. Bei der Wahl der Strategie zur Modernisierung von IT-Landschaften fällt die Entscheidung häufig zugunsten dieses neuartigen Architekturmodells.Der Kerngedanke von SOA besteht darin, IT-Funktionalitäten in einzelne, geschäftsorientierte Serviceblöcke aufzuspalten und damit komplexe Strukturen aufzulösen. Dem Leser werden einerseits die allgemeinen Grundlagen der Serviceorientierung vermittelt und andererseits die technologischen Konzepte und Standards zur praktischen Umsetzung Service-orientierter Architekturen unter Verwendung von WebServices vorgestellt. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf der Fragestellung, in wie weit WebServices zur Implementierung geeignet sind. Ergänzend wird die Orchestrierung von Services zu einem Prozess mittels der Prozessbeschreibungssprache WS-BPEL beschrieben und auf organisatorische Vorgehensmethoden im Rahmen der SOA-Governance eingegangen.
