2. 2 Agenda Service Oriented Architecture Grid Computing Standards involved

3. 3 What is Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)? An SOA application is a composition of services A “service” is the atomic unit of an SOA Services encapsulate a business process Service Providers Register themselves Service use involves: Find, Bind, Execute Most well-known instance is Web Services Service Registry Service Provider Service Consumer FindRegister Bind, Execute

4. 4 SOA Actors Service Provider  Provides a stateless, location transparent business service Service Registry  Allows service consumers to locate service providers that meet required criteria Service Consumer  Uses service providers to complete business processes Service Registry Service Provider Service Consumer FindRegister Bind, Execute

5. 5 SOA Benefits Business Benefits Focus on Business Domain solutions Leverage Existing Infrastructure Agility Technical Benefits Loose Coupling Autonomous Service Location Transparency Late Binding Service Registry Service Provider Service Consumer FindRegister Bind, Execute

7. 7 What is Grid Computing? “A computational grid is a hardware and software infrastructure that provides dependable, consistent, pervasive, and inexpensive access to high-end computational capabilities.” -”The Grid: Blueprint for a New Computing Infrastructure”, Kesselman & Foster Source: “What is the Grid? A Three Point Checklist”, Ian Foster, Argonne National Laboratory & University of Chicago Criteria for a Grid*: 1.Coordinates resources that are not subject to centralized control. 2.Uses standard, open, general-purpose protocols and interfaces. 3.Delivers nontrivial qualities of service.

8. 8 Grid Computing Benefits Exploit Underutilized resources  CPU Scavenging, Hotspot leveling Resource Balancing Virtualize resources across an enterprise  Data Grids, Compute Grids Enable collaboration for virtual organizations

9. 9 Two Key Grid Computing Groups The Globus Alliance (www.globus.org) Composed of people from: Argonne National Labs, University of Chicago, University of Southern California Information Sciences Institute, University of Edinburgh and others. OGSA/I standards initially proposed by the Globus Group  Based off papers “Anatomy of the Grid” & “Physiology of the Grid” The Global Grid Forum (www.ggf.org) History  First meeting in June of 1999, Based off the IETF charter Heavy involvement of Academic Groups and Industry  (e.g. IBM Grid Computing, HP, United Devices, Oracle, UK e-Science Programme, US DOE, US NSF, Indiana University, and many others) Process  Meets three times annually  Solicits involvement from industry, research groups, and academics
