3. - 3 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Agenda Architectural Context for Integration Architectural Patterns in Discussion Event Driven Architecture (EDA) Spring as EDA enabler Message Driven Architecture Java Message Service (JMS) Message Exchange Patterns Message Driven Beans in EJB 3 and Message Driven POJO’s Realizing Message driven designs with Spring Spring Task Execution and Scheduling Spring Integration Q&A

4. - 4 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Common Architectural contexts and respective Choices Integration and communication styles– Online / Real Time Integration – SOA Enablers – ESB / MOM / JMS / XML/RPC/JCA and Web Services Offline Integration – Scheduled Batch processes, Polling Synchronous Communication – RMI / RPC/JCA /Web Services Asynchronous Communication – Service Activation / JMS / Asynchronous web- service calls Message Channeling, Routing, Aggregation – ESB or could be Spring Integration

5. - 5 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Event Driven Architecture (EDA) – in a Nutshell One of the key design principle is - Low Coupling and High Cohesion EDA gives the flexibility to define clearly the boundaries and responsibilities of classes in collaboration but keeping their level of dependency to the minimum Example : “What Should I do on successful booking of a ticket” EDA is all about transmitting events between different components in a system and clearly defining a way to handle them An “Event” generally represents a change in the state of a system Example : “ Booked a Ticket Successfully” EDA avoids any coupling between subsystems as it takes away the normal command and control scheme i.e. one class calling a method of another “known” class and waiting for it to respond.

6. - 6 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx EDA – Characteristics Events are broadcasted whenever they occur and they are fine grained Events typically are handled Asynchronously and the Caller is not aware of Callee Fundamental principle of “Services” to be stateless can be easily achieved No blocking times – Events no longer takes place one at a time, and the order of events is no longer important.

7. - 7 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx EDA – Spring - Sending Application Events 1. Publisher injected by the container – Setter Injection in this case 2. Use the publisher to send events at runtime.

8. - 8 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx EDA – Spring - Handling Application Events 1. Implement the ApplicationListener interface with a parameterized type. 2. Define the bean, and it will be invoked at runtime when that type of Event occurs.

9. - 9 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Message Driven Architecture (MeDA)- JMS - in a Nutshell One of the common architectural choice to integrate disparate systems in a distributed environment is Messaging Uses a Middleware to facilitate messaging i.e. to queue sent messages and handle them – Message Oriented Middleware (MOM) Message Producers and Consumers are not aware of each other JMS is a MOM standard and is a vendor neutral specification for messaging Features of JMS include Point to Point Messaging (Queues) (1sender-1receiver) Publish and Subscribe (Topics) (1publisher – N subscribers) Reliable Message Delivery Message Persistence Transactional Structured Messaging

10. - 10 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx MeDA – Messaging Domains / Models Point to Point Messaging Domain – Messages are sent to queues and are delivered only once and that too to a single consumer. Queues retain messages until consumed or expired Publish and Subscribe Messaging Domain – Messages are sent to topics and are delivered to all the subscribers. Ideal for publishing business events and it is one flavor of implementing EDA.

11. - 11 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx MeDA – Implementation choice – Message Driven Beans Characteristics of Message Driven Beans Message Driven beans are state less server side Java objects for handling JMS Messages and processing them asynchronously Developed as part of EJB 2.0 specification Highly scalable server side components as they are easily managed and/or distributed Disadvantages of Message Driven Beans Mandates the need for an EJB container / JEE application Server Heavy life cycle as part of EJB specification (Nothing changed in EJB 3 ) Each MDB listens to a single destination Cannot be part of domain model as they are otherwise are not reusable Normal leverage is only to the extent of “Services Activation”

12. - 12 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx MeDA – Implementation choice – Message Driven POJO Characteristics of Message Driven POJO These can be part of domain model as they are normal java classes with no additional baggage These classes are JMS unaware Developer need not worry about JMS Easily testable Disadvantages of Message Driven POJO’s Developers think in terms of Command – Control instead of Messaging and Asynchronous communication as these POJO’s are not treated separately as “Special Objects” Needs plumbing code to leverage JMS resources. Needs more attention to “Separation of Concerns”. No standard interfaces are implemented by limiting their power of interface injection

13. - 13 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx MeDA – Spring – Sending JMS Messages 1. Abstract JMS Administered objects into a JmsTemplate 2. Inject an instance of Spring's JmsTemplate into the sending class 3. Provide the JMS ConnectionFactory in the JmsTemplate bean definition

14. - 14 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx MeDA – Spring – Listening for JMS Messages 1. Define a “listener-container” within the context and specify the destination that needs to be looked at for receiving messages 2. Point to any POJO and specify a listening method to implicitly create a MessageListenerAdapter

15. - 15 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx MeDA – Spring – Advanced Message Queuing Protocol AMQP is an open standard application layer protocol for message-oriented middleware One level ahead of JMS – unlike JMS, AMQP is a wired protocol Dictates the format of messages during data transfer across networks

16. - 16 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx MeDA – Spring – Sending/Receiving AMQP Messages 1. Use AmqpTemplate which accepts Exchange and Routing Key 2. Point to any POJO and specify a listening method to implicitly create a MessageListenerAdapter for AMQP messages.

17. - 17 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Polling – An architectural pattern (Better avoid) Better to use events/messaging and only poll when you have to Lifecycle interface – start(), stop() and isRunning() - This supports any basic back ground task and a common usage is polling SmartLifecycle does those three plus autostartup, phases and adds a callback on stop – gives a handle on the running thread to the application to end gracefully.

18. - 18 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Task Execution using Executors The Spring Framework provides abstractions for asynchronous execution of tasks with the TaskExecutor interface The TaskExecutor interface has a single method execute(Runnable task) The TaskExecutor gives Spring components an abstraction for thread pooling where needed Multiple pre-built implementations of TaskExecutor are included in Spring 3 which covers most of the patterns of task execution

19. - 19 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Task Execution – by configuration Important thing to note is that the execute method here adds a Runnable thread to the queue and the TaskExecutor uses its internal rules to decide when the task gets executed, depending on the Implementation class we choose to inject. We can easily change a particular behavior or pattern of task execution by changing the Implementation strategy.

20. - 20 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Task Execution – @Async Annotation @Async – adds an implicit TaskExecutor Support to a method Spring internally uses a Dynamic Proxy for @Async annotated method so that the method is actually executed by the implementation class of TaskExecutor

21. - 21 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Task Scheduling The Spring Framework provides abstractions for asynchronous scheduling of tasks with the TaskScheduler interface supported by Trigger and TriggerContext interfaces TaskScheduler supports recurring and cancelable tasks and they can be easily controlled

22. - 22 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Task Scheduling – by configuration The Example below shows a POJO which can be turned into a business service that can be executed as a Cron Job with basic configuration. This Example uses Cron Expression “3/10 ****?” which is nothing but a 3 seconds offset and runs every 10 secs in a minute. Other Possible Triggers are “fixed-delay” and “fixed-rate” which are configured in milliseconds.

23. - 23 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Task Scheduling – @Scheduled Annotation The @Scheduled annotation can be added to a method along with trigger metadata Start at Every Five seconds after completion of each run Start at Every Five seconds after starting each run Cron Job that executes on week days

24. - 24 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Spring Integration – A bird-eye view Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) is an application of technology defined as the integration of data and services between applications. Spring Integration is an API from the creators of the Spring Framework that's geared towards Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). Spring Integration offers improvement on every integration solution that exists in Java world. Can be a powerful alternative to an ESB Spring Integration addresses this concern – “As the number of integration points increases the applications will have to maintain and manage many point to point channels of communication and the convergence of these channels at various end points create “spaghetti architecture”. Key Parts of Spring Integration : Message–Pay Load–Header–Channel–Gateway

25. - 25 - Karthik-Banda-Deloitte-Silicon-India-Java-Conference-Hyderabad_Final.pptx Spring Integration – A Simple Example This example uses Spring Integration to process a book order and appropriately route the message depending on if it's a pickup from the store or if it should be delivered by post.
