3. Topics Challenges in enabling the application development lifecycle Model-driven development with VSTESA Extensibility Looking Forward

4. How do I build applications that will successfully deploy? How do I set and enforce operational policies? How do I communicate application requirements to Operations? How do I keep better informed of application requirements? How do I communicate a critical business process to IT?

5. Dynamic Systems Initiative

6. Best Practices & Guidance

7. Applications Application Hosts Network Topology & OS Hardware System Definition Model (SDM): A formal model of a complete system All information pertinent to deployment and operations Machine-readable, capturing intent of developers and IT Professionals System topology Developer constraints IT policy Installation directives Health model Monitoring rules Service Level Agreements Reports ? ?

8. Distributed System Designers Application Designer System Designer Logical Datacenter Designer Deployment Designer Deployment Reports Design Configurations of Applications and Systems Configuration targeted per deployment environment Validate and Correct Errors Describe Deployment of a System to a Datacenter Design and Develop Applications Capture configuration meta-data Capture application dependencies HTML Report, XML Report for Deployment Tools Describe Datacenter Application Hosting Model Capture configuration meta-data Capture host dependencies Tools to create and understand models for transferring knowledge across all roles in the application development lifecycle.

9. Humongous Insurance Architects, developers and IT Professionals sharing knowledge to extend Humongous Insurance Existing call center application services internal clients for Life Policy administration Existing call center application services internal clients for Life Policy administration Goal Goal Extend the system to provide Auto Policy administration Extend the system to provide Auto Policy administration Offer customer self service portal for both auto and life Offer customer self service portal for both auto and life

10. System Designer Logical Datacenter Designer Deployment Designer Deployment Reports Distributed System Designers Application Designer Choose approach – agile or formal Design first, code first, contract first, existing applications first Visualize your application architecture Synchronize design with code in projects Leverage the architect’s knowledge Create architecture & hand off to developers Specify configuration & deployment requirements

11. Architect uses Application Designer to Extend Humongous Insurance System Add Customer Self Service Web Client Add Customer Self Service Web Client Create Web service that wraps Auto System Create Web service that wraps Auto System Integrate Life and Auto systems Integrate Life and Auto systems

12. Architect uses Application Designer to Extend Humongous Insurance System  Visualize Solution structure  Whiteboard design  Contract-first  Code first  Synchronization  Code Generation & Configuration

13. Distributed System Designers Logical Datacenter Designer Application Designer System Designer Deployment Designer Deployment Reports Application Servers not machines Logical infrastructure architecture Specify resources and import settings from the target environment Leverage the ITPro’s knowledge Yes… but It works on my machine too! Increase the predictability of application deployment Specification of configuration Specification of IT policy for application developers Improve communication with development and IT Professionals

14. ITPro uses Logical Datacenter Designer to Describe Target Deployment Environment Define an internet perimeter Zone for Customer Self Service Define an internet perimeter Zone for Customer Self Service Configure application services Configure application services Specify datacenter policy to restrict web services in Perimeter Specify datacenter policy to restrict web services in Perimeter

15.  Logical datacenter design  Importing and specifying settings  Specifying Constraints on Applications  Save reusable configurations in toolbox ITPro uses Logical Datacenter Designer to Describe Target Deployment Environment

16. Distributed System Designers System Designer Logical Datacenter Designer Application Designer Deployment Designer Deployment Reports Deploy what you need Allows distinct debug, pre-production, and production configuration Encapsulation Selectively expose entry points to system Composition

17. Architect Configures new System Configures CustomerSelfService Configures CustomerSelfService

18. Architect Configures new System  Nested Systems  Debug and deployment configuration separate  Isolation  Multiple uses

19. Distributed System Designers System Designer Logical Datacenter Designer Application Designer Deployment Designer Deployment Reports Determine compatibility of Application against target environment Bind applications to logical servers Validators highlight incompatibilities Improve communication with development and IT Professionals Deployment Report

20. Architect Determines Application Compatibility with Datacenter Policies Bind applications to environment Validate application & datacenter policy Resolve conflicts Generate deployment report for Communication & scripting

21.  Policy Constraint validation  Communication pathway resolution  Integrated Error resolution  Scriptable and human readable Deployment reports Architect Determines Application Compatibility with Datacenter Policies

22. Humongous Insurance Architects, developers and IT Professionals sharing knowledge to extend Humongous Insurance Existing call center application services internal clients for Life Policy administration Existing call center application services internal clients for Life Policy administration Goal Goal Extend the system to provide Auto Policy administration Extend the system to provide Auto Policy administration Offer customer self service portal for both auto and life Offer customer self service portal for both auto and life

23. Extensibility User defined settings Examples (security, performance, health, etc) Associate them with *any* existing type Constrainable User defined Applications and Logical Servers Fully document your system Add new hosting relationships to existing models Extend communication capabilities Codify best practices with “Validators” Security best practices Service Level Agreement Application Health Extend the experience by adding models through the SDM SDK

24. Extensibility Defining and using new types Defining and using new types

25. Codify best practices and guidance Best Practices in “Patterns & Practices” documents but … Massive amount of documentation Not very clear what is expected Inflexible for different architectures Difficult to track changes Codify best practices with Validators “Executable contract” design time feedback Versioned and standardized Grouped in relevant resources

26. Codify best practices and guidance Security best practices Security best practices

27. Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Architects Model structure of complex systems Visualization and validation Knowledge transfer and collaboration Between architects and developers Between development and operations Improve value of design Design, code and configuration are synchronized Improve predictability of deployment Design validation, unified deployment manifest Integrate best practices and guidance

28. Looking Forward… VS Integration with Deployment & Management Test deployments More on Analysis “Design for… Performance, Management, Security, Operations, SLA Rich support for distributed system design Indigo Contract design Deep Extensibility Support Broader lifecycle coverage/integration
