SOA Design Patterns (The Prentice Hall Service-Oriented Computing Series from Thomas Erl)

“SOA Design Patterns is an important contribution to the literature and practice
of building and delivering quality software-intensive systems.” – Grady Booch, IBM Fellow “With the continued explosion of services and the increased rate of adoption of SOA through the market, there is a critical need for comprehensive, actionable guidance that provides the fastest possible time to results. Microsoft is honored to contribute to the SOA Design Patterns book, and to continue working with

The Zen of SOA: An Executive Blueprint to Web-Enable Your Organization With Service-Oriented Architecture

by

Product Description
Organizations face quite different challenges in laying out a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) blueprint. Internal integration needs may be more straightforward, but business models may focus less on internal integration than external partners or customers. Traditional approaches like EAI, however, are notoriously inflexible and expensive. The author has been consulted by many such organizations leveraging agile development practices and Web services to reduce the cost of older approaches to address their integration and new development needs. The simple addition of Web services interfaces, however, typically remains as inflexible as approaches previously available. Only through the application of Service-Oriented Architecture can C-level executives build and leverage loosely coupled Web services that are flexible enough to respond to ongoing change in the larger environment. This blueprint provides a clear methodology to guide SOA implementations. ISBN 978-0-615-24703-8

A Software Architecture Process for SOA Definition: Designing Service-Oriented Architectures in an Enterprise Context

by

Product Description
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) emerged as a type of software architecture to build systems through the composition of services. In the enterprise context, SOA permits the organizations, which have a fragmented application infrastructure under management of different domains, can integrate these applications in the service level. The service-oriented paradigm has become a distinct design approach which introduces specific principles that govern the design of architectural elements. In this sense, this book presents a SOA-based architecture process that comprises the main software architecture and SOA foundations in order to guide the architects in the construction of a software architecture description for SOA in an enterprise context. The book begins with an overview of the software architecture and SOA fields, discussing their definitions, roots, foundations and elements. Next, the proposed process is presented with its foundations, roles, activities, sub-activities, inputs and outputs. At the end, an experimental study that was performed using the process is discussed.

Secrets of SOA: An Enterprise View on Service-Oriented Architecture Deployment Revealed

by

Product Description

Targeted at management, the first six chapters of Secrets of SOA focus on the business impact of service-oriented architecture technological decisions with an emphasis on cost, flexibility, and the ability to maintain business objectives. Each of the six chapters explores a different topic that illustrates the value of a physically integrated SOA infrastructure organized at the enterprise level. Taken together, they demonstrate why enterprise-level planning, backed by a centralized deployment strategy, is essential to the success of SOA. Aimed at the IT executive, the second half of the book deals with specific IT issues raised by SOAs and why these issues are best dealt with on an enterprise level. Among the topics covered in these eight chapters are virtualizing resources, managing heterogeneous workloads, maintaining data and transactional integrity, and the value of proximity.
