oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 The Dawn of a New Era Built on Service Oriented Architecture

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 Vision of a Service-Oriented Architecture zA place where services are ubiquitous and organically integrated into the way we think and work. zA place where both users and providers of information interact through a common focus on services. zA world where technology is implemented within industry frameworks that operate on a global scale, enabled by open, interoperable standards.

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 A Common Web Service Framework Is Essential z To provide a sustainable foundation, z That will allow end-user companies to achieve the payback they require, z To invest widely in the service- oriented architecture.

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 Achieving Sustainable Business Benefits through a Common Web Service Framework In this post-dot-com era, end user companies are expecting more liquidity and longevity of their assets. To achieve the ROI, Cost Reduction and Service Expansion benefits expected; the widespread deployment of standards-based Web services is essential.

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 Some Days Its Hard to Know Which Way is Up or Down

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 A Web service is a software application identified by a URI, whose interfaces and bindings are capable of being defined, described and discovered as XML artifacts. A Web service supports direct interactions with other software agents using XML- based messages via Internet-based protocols. --W3C Web Services Architecture Working Group © W3C Web Services Definition

© OASIS 2003 Web Services Issues

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 Fundamental Issues that Must Be Addressed 1.A common framework for Web service interactions based on open standards must occur. 2.An agreed set of vocabularies and interactions for specific industries or common functions must be adopted.

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 “for this service-oriented scenario to happen, there needs to be standardization of the types of messages and data exchanges” Douglas Barry Web Services and Service-Oriented Architectures - The Savvy Manager ’ s Guide

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 Greatest Concern Preventing Adoption of Web services “There's a sordid history in the technology world of everybody trying to get a little leverage over somebody else by developing proprietary extensions or vendor-specific add-ons to the core technology. In general, those have been bad, because they don't end up being sustainable over time and that costs companies like us a lot of money.” CIO of a Fortune 100 corporation

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 What Does It Take for Software Vendors? zActive participation in standards bodies zDrive standards development to further industry, interoperability, adoption zAnalysis of standards in software development zBalance of innovation with standards support zFocus on compliance & interoperability testing

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 So Why Don’t Vendors Always Support Standards? zToo easy to “do your own thing” yQuickness to delivery, shortcuts available zLock-in customers to proprietary solutions yIntegration with other systems means more consulting zLack of top-level priority ySupporting multiple standards requires specific expertise and resource commitment zCompliance not always possible yMany standards do not have compliance testing

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 How Can Users Influence Vendors? zExamine and understand standards that are pertinent to your industry zParticipate in standards bodies that relate to your business practices zHelp vendors understand the importance of your requirements for interoperability zHelp vendors understand what standards you rely upon today and in the future … and why zDo not purchase products from vendors who do not support the standards you need

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 Delphi Group Research on the Value of Open Software Standards zGreatest benefit to support open standards 1.Increases the value of existing and future investments in information systems 2.Provides greater software re-usability 3.Enables greater data portability zFactors driving participation in standards 1.Vendor neutral environment 2.Access to a community of developers 3.Membership comprised of both end-users and software developers

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 Delphi Group Research on the Value of Open Software Standards “Compliance with standards in software development is not simply a strategic direction, but a business imperative.” “Even those who took a very practical approach and stated that standards might slow down their efforts initially, agreed that in the long run the presence of a standard represented a much more secure investment.”

oasis-open.org © OASIS 2003 What Should an Open Standards Process Provide? zOpportunity to pursue technical work in a neutral environment – level playing field zBalanced participation by technology vendors, end users & governmental agencies zOpportunity to set the technical agenda – member driven zActive support from relevant industry associations zVisibility and sanction by an internationally recognized standards body
