The Internet Marketplace Template An Architecture Template for Inter-enterprise Information Systems Mark Cameron, Kerry Taylor, Dave Abel
Inter-enterprise IS • Share information • Value-add industry • Not transactional • Integrated applications • Government agencies, natural resource management, scientific communities, corporate business units (M&A)
Design Constraints • Autonomy / Loosely coupled • Legacy systems • Heterogenous information sources • Information asset architecture • Transport/message m’ware independent • Distributed control
Basic Architecture • Request service providers • Query services • Function services • Valued added services • Request services • Applications • Infrastructure services Infrastructure Services
An architectural template • For request services and applications • Domain-independent aspects of applications and value-added services • UML views: Use case, Design, Deployment • Applied to a local government domain
Information architecture • 3-tier architectures offer a domain model (objects) for applications • But who owns the domain model? Dynamic domain model specified by the application in the declarative request
