© Systemic Pty Ltd November 2013 Melbourne MCG: SIF 3.0 REST Framework 3 What is it?  Open-Source Java Framework for SIF 3.0  Library with a number of Interfaces & Pre-Implemented classes  Basic Environment Provider  Framework for Consumers  Framework for Providers  Ideas and Concepts based on SIFCommon Framework (SIF 2.x)

SOAP Infra Basic Environment Provider Any Data Model

© Systemic Pty Ltd November 2013 Melbourne MCG: SIF 3.0 REST Framework 9 What is next? End of year it is hoped to have support for:  More Zone & Context support  Events & Queues  Better Multi-Threading Early 2014 (To be confirmed):  Caching Framework .Net version of Framework  Maybe some Perl Framework

© Systemic Pty Ltd November 2013 Melbourne MCG: SIF 3.0 REST Framework 10 Where can I find it?  The Framework is Open-Source  Located on NSIP’s Github  There are many other NSIP sponsored frameworks on that same Github location: SIF Common Framework (Java &.Net) SPB Agent Framework (Java &.Net) Sample SIF3 Code (Java,.Net, Perl etc)
