Download or read book Understanding Service Oriented Architecture written by Dr. Ashish Seth and published by BPB Publications. This book was released on 2020-01-14 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: LetÕs Design On-Demand Business Model _DESCRIPTION Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an architectural approach that can be shared and reused. The book proposes a service-based architecture approach to design an adaptive business model for small enterprises. It presents an ad-hoc model which is based on five layered SOA architecture that can integrate all activities comprising Supply Chain Management (SCM), Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Technical and Enterprise applications tools, and hence, it best suits the SME requirements. This book covers the challenges that SMEs face to compete with large enterprises. It also compares the proposed model with traditional ERP systems and other similar approaches. It is found that the SOA model is efficient, cost-effective, and competent with similar existing solutions. There is always a need to know the scope and size of the work involved while developing a service or deriving any application from service-based model; this book will help in determining the cost and effort for such projects. KEY FEATURES - Guide to investigate series of processes/activities (value chain activities) required in Small and Medium size Enterprises (SME). - Guide for organizations to identify which SOA infrastructure will be needed to build service-based applications for themselves. - Guide for organizations to test the SOA model in order to meet the changing on-demand business requirements and ensure high level of security and governance. - Guide to handle interoperability between different vendor infrastructures. WHAT WILL YOU LEARN The book will cover the detailed study of service-oriented model from the inception of the idea to its final implementation. You will be able to understand the basics components of service-oriented architecture. You will learn how to develop SOA based model and will realize that most of the interoperability problems visible at the conceptual level could be overcome. The successful simulation of integration among business value chain activities by using the service-oriented methodology can be served as guidelines for researchers, system designers, and system stakeholders to obtain integrated and accuracy output information.

This book was released on 2007-04-02 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: In today s companies changes happen very fast. On the one hand more and more new technologies are arising, on the other hand business processes have to change because of mergers and acquisitions, new regularities, changing customer requirements and so forth. As business processes are supported by information technology, information technology has to cope with both types of changes. From a business perspective on-demand adaptation of information technology to business is required. Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is currently discussed as an opportunity to better adapt to those changes. According to Gartner's hype cycle for emerging technologies SOA already crossed the peak and is now in the trough of disillusionment. But SOA is far from being unfashionable as it would be expected during this phase. There is still high media coverage and a lot of SOA books have been published recently or will be published during the next months. What is true, however, is that the expectations are getting more realistic and people start to think about the real benefits. This is probably due to the fact that companies experienced, that implementing an SOA is not as fast and easy as the marketing hype might have given the impression. Although the hype surrounding SOA is immense, the concept is still in its early childhood with regards to concrete implementations. According to a survey conducted by Experton Group only three percent of 110 German enterprises, all with over 100 Employees, have a SOA based solution in place. Besides high costs expected from migration to SOA the lack of SOA know-how is identified as a main reason. As the survey reveals 45 percent of the interviewed enterprises have nearly no knowledge or no knowledge about SOA at all. Another 38 percent have only basic knowledge. The lack of knowledge is confirmed by a survey from the research company Quocirca, which found out, based on a sample size of 1500, that 30 percent of respondents have absolutely no knowledge about SOA and 25 percent have only minimal knowledge. Similar results are found among enterprises using SAP software. The results of an online survey conducted by the German speaking SAP User Group (DSAG) shows that 64 percent of 344 enterprises are just a little or not at all familiar with enterprise SOA and only every fifth enterprise has developed a platform strategy. Furthermore, enterprise SOA is still a topic of the IT department, although it would be [...]

Download or read book Service Orientation in Holonic and Multi Agent Manufacturing and Robotics written by Theodor Borangiu and published by Springer. This book was released on 2013-02-15 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book covers four research domains representing a trend for modern manufacturing control: Holonic and Multi-agent technologies for industrial systems; Intelligent Product and Product-driven Automation; Service Orientation of Enterprise’s strategic and technical processes; and Distributed Intelligent Automation Systems. These evolution lines have in common concepts related to service orientation derived from the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) paradigm. The service-oriented multi-agent systems approach discussed in the book is characterized by the use of a set of distributed autonomous and cooperative agents, embedded in smart components that use the SOA principles, being oriented by offer and request of services, in order to fulfil production systems and value chain goals. A new integrated vision combining emergent technologies is offered, to create control structures with distributed intelligence supporting the vertical and horizontal enterprise integration and running in truly distributed and global working environments. The service value creation model at enterprise level consists into using Service Component Architectures for business process applications, based on entities which handle services. In this componentization view, a service is a piece of software encapsulating the business/control logic or resource functionality of an entity that exhibits an individual competence and responds to a specific request to fulfil a local (product) or global (batch) objective.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Achieve Breakthrough Business Flexibility and Agility by Integrating SOA and BPM Thousands of enterprises have adopted Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) based on its promise to help them respond more rapidly to changing business requirements by composing new solutions from existing business services. To deliver on this promise, however, companies need to integrate solid but flexible Business Process Management (BPM) plans into their SOA initiatives. Dynamic SOA and BPM offers a pragmatic, efficient approach for doing so. Top IBM® SOA architect Marc Fiammante takes you step-by-step through combining BPM and SOA, and using them together to build a more flexible, dynamic enterprise. Throughout the book, he emphasizes hands-on solutions based on his experience supporting dozens of enterprise SOA implementations. Practical from start to finish, Dynamic SOA and BPM squarely addresses two of the most critical challenges today’s IT executives, architects, and analysts face: implementing BPM as effectively as possible and deriving more value from their SOA investments. Coverage Includes Moving from simplified integration to dynamic processes: realizing the full business value of services Streamlining enterprise architecture to accelerate business and IT alignment Implementing dynamic business processes based on small, flexible modules that can be quickly modeled, tested, delivered, and improved Planning for services and information variability to limit the impact of change on processes and other consumers of services Providing an integration layer between consumers and providers that addresses issues classical Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) approaches cannot solve alone Tooling and practices for the development, management, and monitoring of the complete SOA/BPM life cycle
