Delivering Mission Agility Through Agile SOA Governance 13th SOA e-Government Conference 4/12/2012 Presented by Wolf Tombe Chief Technology Officer (CTO) U.S. Customs & Border Protection (CBP)
A Day in CBP • CBP is the oldest and the largest of DHS components • CBP processes millions of transactions and facilitates billions of data searches each day
For every minute of down time 764 people and 50 containers back up at the borders, seaports, or airports. • In one hour that is 46,000 people and 3,000 containers
In FY 2011 CBP processed • $2.3 trillion in trade • 340 million travellers • 24.3 million containers • Seized nearly 5 million pounds of narcotics
CBP’s Mission Needs Secure America's borders, facilitate safe trade and travel, and enforce hundreds of U.S. laws and regulations
To support the ever changing business needs, CBP needs to be agile and flexible while adopting innovative and low-cost solutions across the stack CBP’s Technology Needs SOA Cloud Enterprise Governance
Extending CBP’s Success Across DHS Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is one of the core IT Strategic principles to achieve mission critical objectives Promote collaboration and Information Sharing across DHS Component, Federal Agencies and Commercial/Private partners DHS SOA will expedite the realization of SOA through DHS SOA Technical Framework DHS SOA Message Service Header Framework DHS SOA Federated Security Model DHS SOA Service Registry and Repository DHS SOA Lifecycle and Governance
Achieving Interoperability through Open Standards and Consistent Architecture DHS SOA is grounded in a standards-based approach Web Services, RESTful Services and XML Services Web Services Standards (WS-*) UDDI, SOAP, XML, WS-Security, WSDL NIEM is required for all external service interactions Messaging Protocols (SOAP/HTTPS, JMS, AMQP) Vendor neutral and technology agnostic SOA Infrastructure is based in open architecture using federated ESB model across the department Interoperability is accomplished through a DHS standard SOA Service Header Framework
Improving Efficiency and Effectiveness of SOA Governance through Automation • Automated SOA Lifecycle and Governance processes • Tailored/Agile DHS/CBP SELC Process for SOA Services • Enforces consistency of artifacts and compliance with enterprise-wide policies and mandates • Integrates SOA centric information and artifacts • Streamlines the SOA Service Life Cycle process • Able to achieve Concept to Production in under 45 days 9
Aligning Agile SOA Service Lifecycle with Traditional DHS/CBP SELC
CBP Delivering Real Mission Agility • INTERPOL Lost/Stolen Passport Query Service: • CBP SOA Service Lifecycle facilitated the deployment of this service into Production in only 45 days (concept to deployment) • Queries INTERPOL system for information regarding foreign passports that have been reported lost or stolen • Allows CBP Officer to make a determination on the validity of a foreign passport being presented for entry into the U.S. • Service is utilized by multiple applications within CBP and is in use at more than 150 U.S. land borders with approximately 50,000 transactions processed per day 11
Infrastructure (IaaS) Provide network, storage and computing resources to be consumed by customers Common Delivery Platform – Consistently designed and managed appliance based shared infrastructure which will host CBP mission critical applications Pre-Configured/Integrated Solution Stacks Applications (PaaS) N-Tier application stacks, CRM, SOA Services (SaaS) Collaboration (E-Mail, Messaging, Calendar) CBP Looks to Cloud-based Services for Flexibility, Agility and Cost Savings
CBP is Laying the Foundation with Cloud Enabled Infrastructure Services • Common Delivery Platform • Consistently designed and managed appliance based shared infrastructure which will host CBP mission critical applications
CBP is Ensuring that all Layers of the Application Stack are Cloud Ready • Enterprise Technical Architecture • Infrastructure Agnostic Application and Data Architecture • Layered Application Architecture • Common business layer for Traditional Web, Rich Internet, Mobile applications and external systems • Abstracted Functional Services
CBP is Adopting and Implementing “Light Technology” through Cloud-based Services • Support for Mobile Computing • Extend CBP/DHS SOA in Public/Private Clouds • Provide and Consume Shared Functional Services (model similar to apps.gov) • GeoSpatial and Mapping • Business Intelligence • Enterprise Collaboration Capabilities • E-Mail • Messaging • Calendaring • Document Sharing
Achieving Mission Agility through Agile SOA Governance • DHS SOA Working Group • Consistent SOA Governance, including Registry and Automated Lifecycle Management across all DHS components • Integration of component-level SOA governance into DHS Enterprise Architecture Repository (EAR) • DHS SOA Technical Framework and Implementation Guidance • DHS Agile Integrated Project Team (IPT) • Provide framework, recommendations, guidance and approaches for adopting agile methodologies for “software intensive IT projects” • Agile SOA Governance and Lifecycle process is being practiced at CBP today and the results are self evident
