  3. WS-BPEL 2.0 BPEL Historical Timeline Dec 2000 Microsoft publishes XLANG March 2001 IBM publishes WSFL July 2002 IBM, Microsoft and BEA converge WSFL & XLANG into BPEL4WS 1.0 March 2003 BPEL4WS is submitted to OASIS May 2003 OASIS publishes BPEL4WS 1.1 April 2007 WS-BPEL 2.0 released • BPEL is the Web Services Orchestration standard from OASIS • bee’•pel, bee•pel’, beep’•əl, bip’•əl, ta’mātō, tō’måtō • An XML-based grammar for describing the logic to orchestrate the interaction between Web services in a business process

  4. Motivation • Integration continues to be a key problem facing businesses • Intra-enterprise integration (Enterprise Application Integration) • Integrating with partners (Business-to-Business Integration) • Syndication • Web services  move towards service-oriented computing • Applications are viewed as “services” • Loosely coupled, dynamic interactions • Heterogeneous platforms • No single party has complete control • Service composition • How do you compose services in this domain?

  5. Why the Need For BPEL? • WSDL defined Web services have a stateless interaction model • Messages are exchanged using • Synchronous invocation • Uncorrelated asynchronous invocations • Most “real-world” business processes require a more robust interaction model • Messages exchanged in a two-way, peer-to-peer conversation lasting minutes, hours, days, etc. • BPEL provides the ability to express stateful, long-running interactions

  6. Why BPEL? • WS-* stack did not address conversation description • Combines graph-oriented and block-oriented programming • Supports the addressability of processes through data they use • Implicit creation and termination • Parallelism • Flows • Event Handlers • Parallel ForEach • Abstract BPEL for observable behaviour and process templating

  7. Why not BPEL? • BPEL is NOT for service creation • Java Standard Edition • Java Enterprise Edition • .NET • Adobe LiveCycle ES • BPEL is NOT a UI • BPDM • BPMN • Adobe LiveCycle Designer • BPEL is NOT designed for choreography • CDL

  8. What’s New since BPEL 1.1 • Data Access • XSD complex-type variable • Simplified XPath expressions • Simplified message access on WSDL • Elaborated <copy> operation behavior in <assign> • keepSrcElement option in <copy> • New <extensionAssignOperation> • Standardized XSLT 1.0 function for use within XPath expressions • XML data validation model • New <validate> activity • “inline” variable initialization at the point of variable declaration

  9. What’s New since BPEL 1.1 • Scope Model • Elaboration of Compensation & Fault Models • Scope Isolation and Control Links interaction in <flow> • New <rethrow> activity • <terminationHandler> • exitOnStandardFault • Message Operations • Join-style Correlation Set • Scope-local PartnerLink declaration • initializePartnerRole • messageExchange construct

  10. What’s New since BPEL 1.1 • Other New Activities • <forEach> • <repeatUntil> • <extensionActivity> • Syntactic [extreme] makeover • <switch> -> <if>-<elseif>-<else> • <terminate> -> <exit> • Other additions • Improved event handling • <repeatEvery> alarm feature • <extension> directive • <import>

  11. WS-BPEL Schedule • Status • OASIS standard - April 2007 • Approximately 20 current TC members • Down from several hundred • Five organizations have certified use of WS-BPEL in product • ActiveEndpoints, IBM, Intalio, SEEBURGER, Sun • Adobe a member of the TC since 2003 • Active participation • Spec editor

  12. WS-BPEL Schedule • Next steps • OASIS Symposium - April 15-20, 2007San Diego, California, USA • Business Process Sessions - April 16 • Lightning Rounds – April 16 • Mini-Talk – April 17 • WS-BPEL Workshop - April 18 • Start using WS-BPEL today
