2. IBM Software Group | Rational software 2 Agenda  What is SOA? (Very quickly!)  What are the challenges in modelling an SOA?  Solution: Goals  Solution: RUP for SOA  Demo  Solution: UML Profile for Software Services  Demo  Example IBM Software Development Platform SOA Toolset  Review

3. IBM Software Group | Rational software 3 … a service? A repeatable business task – e.g., check customer credit; open new account What is …..? … service orientation? A way of integrating your business as linked services and the outcomes that they bring … service oriented architecture (SOA)? An IT architectural style that supports service orientation … a composite application? A set of related & integrated services that support a business process built on an SOA

4. IBM Software Group | Rational software 4 Why is this different to similar claims in the past?  Broadly adopted Web services ensure well- defined interfaces.  Before, proprietary standards limited interoperability Standards  Business and IT are united behind SOA (63% of projects today are driven by LOB)*  Before, communication channels & ‘vocabulary’ not in place Organizational Commitment  SOA services focus on business-level activities & interactions  Before, focus was on narrow, technical sub-tasks Degree of Focus  SOA services are linked dynamically and flexibly  Before, service interactions were hard-coded and dependent on the application Connections  SOA services can be extensively re-used to leverage existing IT assets  Before, any reuse was within silo’ed applications Level of Reuse *Source: Cutter Benchmark Survey

5. IBM Software Group | Rational software 5 What are the challenges in modelling an SOA  SOA is being increasingly adopted, but:  How do you model a SOA?  What level of abstraction is suitable?  What modelling techniques should be used?  Are traditional OOAD techniques suitable?  Which tools should can/should be used?

6. IBM Software Group | Rational software 6 Solution: Goals  Provide new method and model support for SOA  Consistency  Guidance  Model at a level of abstraction above implementation technologies  Higher level than the various Web Services specifications  SOA concepts to be first-class elements  Model to be extensible  Provide deliverables:  RUP for SOA plug-in  Model support  Documented  Available within toolset

7. IBM Software Group | Rational software 7 Solution: RUP for SOA  A published and supported plug-in for RUP  Adds additional:  Workflow details,  Activities,  Concepts,  Guidelines

8. IBM Software Group | Rational software 8 Key New Activities  Identify Services  Performed by the Software Architect within the Analysis & Design and Refine the Architecture workflows.  Output is the Service Model  Defines candidate services  Service Design  Performed by the Designer within the Analysis & Design and Design Services workflows.  Refines the Service Model  New viewpoints: Message, Service and Collaboration

9. IBM Software Group | Rational software 9 Key new concept: Service Portfolio  An application is a configuration of services  Meets business requirements  Projects no longer bound the development cycle  Discovery  Draw from portfolio during elaboration  Publishing:  Contribute to portfolio during construction

10. IBM Software Group | Rational software 10 Key new concept: Service Partitioning  Use UML 2 Composite Structure notation for partitions  Remove the physical limitations of packages - ownership  Provide logical groupings of services  Permits services to contribute to multiple partitions

11. IBM Software Group | Rational software 11 Key new concept: Service Composition & Choreography  Service Choreography:  Composite service based applications  Service collaboration  BPEL  “Orchestration”  Services as Composite Structures  May be recursively composed of other services  Specifying Service Behaviour  Guidance

12. IBM Software Group | Rational software 12 Key new concept: Message Design  Messages are more suitable than parameters in an SOA:  Services are intended to have large granularity  Services are loosely coupled  Services are often asynchronous  Provides an overview of:  Message exchange patterns  Relationship between messages and domain models  Granularity  Performance

16. IBM Software Group | Rational software 16 >  Extends Class  Provides one or more services  Has no attributes or operations  Contains > elements  Property location specifies end-point location  e.g. http://services.abc.comhttp://services.abc.com

17. IBM Software Group | Rational software 17 >  Extends Port  End-point for service interaction  Definition of interactions is part of >  Property for binding type  e.g. SOAP-HTTP, SOAP-JMS

18. IBM Software Group | Rational software 18 >  Extends Interface  > defines interactions that the > provides  Provides one or more operations  May be more than one > for a >  All operations are public (mandatory)  Each operation may consume no more than one >  Each operation may produce no more than one message

19. IBM Software Group | Rational software 19 >  Extends class  A container for actual data which has meaning to the service and the consumer  Has no operations  Property for encoding form (e.g.: SOAP-literal, SOAP-rpc, ASN.1)

20. IBM Software Group | Rational software 20 >  Extends class  Represents either a logical boundary  Tiers  Functionality  Or a physical boundary  Geographical locations  May have associated qualities and constraints  Has no attributes or operations  Contains either > elements or nested > elements

21. IBM Software Group | Rational software 21 UML Profile for Software Services  Not just documentation  The profile is available to download  There is a plugin for IBM Rational Software Architect/Modeler that includes a Service Design Model template
