28. Services Oriented Architecture
18 September September 2018

29. The S in SOA: Service
Unit of business logic that is:
Available on the network
Defined by a standard service description
Encapsulates implementation
Accessed via standardized protocol
Fundamental building blocks for business process automation
Business process automation achieved through sequenced interactions with collection of services
18 September September 2018

30. The O in SOA: Service Orientation
Service Orientation is not a new concept
OO Methodologies and DCOM/CORBA technologies share many of the same concepts
What makes SOA different?
Scale: Enterprise vs application
Granularity: coarse vs fine
Focus: business-centric vs techno-centric
SOA analysis is at higher level of abstraction than OOA
18 September September 2018

18 September September 2018

32. Basic SOA building blocks
SOA service consumer
SOA service provider
SOAP/HTTP
This diagram shows the relationship between the service consumer, the service provider, and the WSDL.
The service provider publishes its WSDL to the service consumer, so that the service consumer can access the service provider. The WSDL describes the structure and content of the SOAP request message that the service consumer must use to invoke the service provider.
(Accesses)
(Describes)
(Publishes)
SOA service provider makes WSDL available to consumer (via UDDI, , URL, etc.)
Consumer application accesses SOA service based on description in WSDL
WSDL
WSDL describes the SOAP header that will be used to invoke the SOA service
18 September September 2018

33. NonStop server is an excellent platform for providing SOA services
From IT perspective, Business Process is network of services linked together
Network is as strong as its weakest link
So, services must be available, scalable, performant, and manageable
Requirements tailor-made for the HP NonStop server
Service model is the natural way to create applications on NonStop servers
18 September September 2018

34. SOA products on NonStop server
NonStop server supports products that address the following two requirements:
Service access
iTP WebServer, NonStop SOAP, Apache AXIS2
Service implementation
Java technology using Tomcat, BEA WebLogic
CORBA using NonStop CORBA
Tuxedo using NonStop Tuxedo
Pathway
Partner products
The NonStop server supports the WS-I Basic Profile through a set of products that address the following three requirements:
Service access—how remote SOA service consumers can access SOA providers on the NonStop server using SOAP and HTTP
Service invocation—how the target service business process is invoked from a service adapter
Usually, NonStop SOA services are not implemented as Web services, so a service adapter is required. A service adapter is a proxy service running on the NonStop server, which provides the necessary protocol and data translation between the service invocation request (SOAP over HTTP) and the native protocol of the actual service implementation (e.g., a Pathway server)
Service implementation—the actual service business logic
We will now discuss the NonStop server products that address each of these requirements
18 September September 2018

[Making existing services into SOA-enabled services]
We want to get from the old client/server model to the new SOA model, but still using the same application implementation.
In the traditional client/server model, the client is written, based on the implementation of the service, to use the specific protocol required by the service. Clients only can access servers that support that protocol, and servers only can be used by clients that support that protocol.
But SOA services interoperate based on a standard contract that is independent of the language or technology that implements the service. Therefore, SOA service consumers and providers can be implemented however you like and can still interoperate. That is, any client can access any service, and any service can be accessed by any client. This is a big and important difference compared to the old client/server model.

36. Home Depot: Major US hardware retailer
1000s of Cash Registers in over 2100 stores
1.5 billion customer transactions per year
4 to 5 million txns/day; txns/sec (peak)
NonStop System
The Demand side of Supply Chain: Each cash register in over 1800 company stores sends complete customer transaction information to the central NonStop system in basic XML. XML is particularly useful because it can “tag” each item purchased, item price, date, credit info, etc. for the application to store and make available to the stores in case of refunds. The customer does not have to have a receipt!
In the future, the company can leverage this information on the Marketing side to do marketing trends of products and building appropriate marketing campaigns.
Also, the company may use this cash register data to feed the Supply side of the supply chain to improve inventory, re-stocking, etc.
Home Depot is the 38th largest company in the world (#14 in the Fortune 500)
They process 1.5 billion customer transactions per year
2,100 stores and 30,000 end-points
350,000 users – training is an issue
Their system was old and needed to be renewed
The current application was licensed from a 3rd party and didn’t meet their needs anymore
Good NonStop developers are expensive and hard to find
They wanted to go with a more modern and open solution
They wanted an intuitive and easy to use GUI
All while maintaining 24x7x365 availability
Peak (Weekends 10:00 – 16:00) is 1,500 TPS
Each transactions does, on average, 7.5 IOs – Mostly writes
Pathway Apps
XML data Sales information
NS SOAP
Internet
iTP WebServer
Detailed info of every sale: items, price, date, credit, etc. No-receipt refunds: hassle-free and fraud-free
18 September September 2018

37. Home Depot business benefits as told by Marty Edelman, director, Advanced Technologies, Home Depot
“The SOA approach gives us extreme speed in getting new solutions up and running”
From 1 release per year to 5 with no increase in development staff
“… SOA helps Home Depot reduce IT costs”
No need to write new code in response to new business requirements. “work-flowing multiple services to build new applications”
“no need to hire developers with specific NonStop skills”
Enabled move from green screens to web screens
Saved millions of dollars in training costs
[Using NonStop SOAP software to SOA enable existing Pathway servers—introduction]
NonStop SOAP software plus iTP WebServer software provide support for the SOAP over HTTP protocol on NonStop servers
NonStop SOAP software includes the infrastructure and toolset required to easily expose Pathway servers as SOA services
It provides a means of automatically generating the WSDL for the service definition from the Pathway server request/response message DDL
As well as providing a built-in service adapter for Pathway servers
All that is required to SOA enable a Pathway server is to define the required information to NonStop SOAP software, via the graphical user interface (GUI) wizard.
No coding is required on the NonStop server
Nor are any changes required to the Pathway server itself.
The NonStop SOAP server process itself runs as a Pathway_CGI serverclass under the HP iTP WebServer software infrastructure for scalability and fault tolerance.
