Haley: An End-to-End, Scalable Web Service Composition Tool Haibo Zhao, Prashant Doshi LSDIS Lab., The University of Georgia 17th International World Wide Web Conference (WWW08) Developers Track, April 23, 2008
2
Outline Introduction and Motivation (Why Haley?) Haley Features in Brief (What does Haley do?) Haley Architecture and Modules (How it works?) Scenario and Demo (How it can be used?) Discussions and Future work (How good/bad it is?)
3
Introduction: Web service composition Individual Web services Value-added Web service composition into BPEL processes
4
Motivation Existing approaches –Manual approach (BPEL coding by hand) Very tedious and error-prone Quickly becomes unmanageable –Automated approaches (Astro, Synthy) Scalability –Major limitation of existing automated approaches due to the inherent complexity of planning algorithms Quality of the composition –Optimize QoS parameters »Minimize invocation cost, response time, … »Maximize reliability,...

What does Haley do? Haley aims to provide an end-to-end, scalable and automated tool suite to compose Web services into BPEL processes* Automation –Haley takes functional descriptions (WSDL/SAWSDL) and non- functional descriptions (WS-agreement) of component Web services to automatically compose BPEL processes Scalability –Haley utilizes a hierarchy modeler to model the hierarchy usually found in business processes Easy-to-use –Intuitive UI (EMF, GMF) that hides the complexity of AI planning –Avoid tedious and error-prone BPEL coding *Haley: A Hierarchical Framework for Logical Composition of Web Services, Haibo Zhao, Prashant Doshi, IEEE International Conference on Web Services, Research Track, ICWS07, Salt Lake City, Utah
6
Features of Haley Use Web services described in WSDL and SAWSDL Browse functionality of Web service with SAWSDL Viewer Model process hierarchy Specify initial state and business goals of processes AI-planning based flow generation using Prolog Programmatically generate BPEL code using ActiveBpel API Graphically view BPEL code in Eclipse
