Design is cacorp ▪ Limited use of primary bullets

5 Project Starting Point >No connection between kp.se and legacy systems >No infrastructure for handling of web projects >No knowledge of tools for web development >No knowledge of HTML, Javascript etc. >No homogenous environment (several platforms, programming languages etc.) Page based on Title and Text from Slide Layout palette. Design is cacorp ▪ Limited use of primary bullets

6 Project Short Summary >Websydian Express - training, installation and configuration end of August 2006 >First service published end of November 2006 Page based on Title and Text from Slide Layout palette. Design is cacorp ▪ Limited use of primary bullets

7 Project Some of the requirements: >Customers should only see and change information that belongs only to their company >Identification of customer, access control and integration of the existing legacy systems at KP >KP’s databases must be protected = not accessible for unauthorized users Subtitles are Part of Title Field, then Modified Manually (see next page) Page based on Title and Text from Slide Layout palette. Design is cacorp ▪ Limited use of primary bullets

8 Evaluation Languages/Tools >Challenge To Implement  RPG, COBOL, Java, C++, JavaScript, HTML, LF, PF, RPC, TCP/IP, stylesheet, applets, web server, servlet engine, Windows, i5/OS and more. >Who knows all of this? >Tools  CA Plex  Websydian Express Page based on Title and Text from Slide Layout palette. Design is cacorp ▪ Limited use of primary bullets

9 CA Plex >Integration  Existing logic in legacy systems re-used >Use existing GUI-standard  Well-tested and proven technique >Model-based  Information-structure is often the foundation for development >Patterns  Websydian >Generators

10 Websydian Express >Built-in security control  Session  Role-based access control via log-in >Built-in handling of menus >Built-in administration application >GUI and integration in one tool >Existing business processes linked-in as menu options

11 Security/Tracking/Logging >Log-in with authentication and permission control >Accountability with stamped transactions  CreatedBy, CreatedDate, ChangedBy, ChangedDate  Physical delete doesn’t exist >Helpdesk  Can simulate a user without updating

12 Plex – Datamodel

13 Integration >Existing functionality in legacy systems reused  Accessible through API-functions developed with Plex  The API is the only connection between web- application and RPG-, COBOL- and CL-program >Web functions are created with CA Plex/Websydian

14 Plex – Object-Oriented Development Via Patterns The business process ”Insured” is created by inheritance from an abstract Websydian-object, for the Internet-user the process is accessible as a menu point in Websydian Express Insured is a ProcessEntryPoint Insured is a PageGeneratorForProcess Insured is a EventHandlerForProcess

15 Web Data Tier >High accessibility  Web data tier can have extended opening hours compared to the legacy systems >High security  The internet user is not working in the legacy system, only in the web tier

16 >All retrieval and updating of information in the web application is done in the web data tier which is a mirrored subset of the legacy system >Changes of information is synchronised Web data tierLegacy systems Internet user Synchronisation Web Data Tier
