  1. EERP Progress:Technology and Standards Andy Lee CTO, Changfeng Alliance Chief Scientist, Beijing eBridgeChina Ltd.

  2. Confusion of SOA • Perfect in theory • To close the gap of IT system and business objectives, and enable business people to participate the IT system design, and SOA also very fits in trend of servicialization. • Difficult in implementation • What is the Service? How to define a Service when considering its relationship to the business objectives. • Different points of views • Currently SOA is promoted mainly by the vendors, they probably intend to create another technology area, so that can ask their users to upgrade the existing IT systems。 • We think SOA should be a revolution for users to solve their business program, rather than another design methodology for vendors。

  3. Technology ！= Changes

  4. Users’ point of views • Factors to achieve busines objectives： • Business models • Human resource configuration • Knowledge structure • Partnership and allinaces • 。。。。。。 • Next generation of IT system： • Directly support users’ business objectives • Consider both internal and external business resources • Evaluate the whole business process rather than a single point of function.

  5. Difficulties of WS • Perfect in theory • Intend to provide a standard interoperability, and standard system that supports the integration of any third party tools。 • Difficult in practice • Because of the performance issues and the compatiblity among different versions of WS standards, WS does not provide the better price/performance ratio in the tradition of data and application integration。 • Different points of views • Currently the vendors seem mainly position WS as the alternative data/application middleware, and it could be a market strategy, the vendors haven’t fully utilized the interoperativity of third party applications. • Should use WS for service interoperability, that integrates and exchanges the performance of services, in this way, WS can best exhibit its interoperability, while not to be required for the performance.

  7. The view of services • Description of services • Business quality of a service • The SLA and Rating of services • Service composition • 。。。。。 • Service integration • The aggregation of composite service QoS to form the business objectives. • End to end service QoS monitor and performance evaluation. • ……

  8. EERP • A new system design methodology and a set of standards to support. • SOA can best support the implementation of EERP • EERP system consists of services that can be evaluated, optimized and replaced, ……. • WS standard can be adapted • Adoption of existing WS standards to support the interoperability of services： • Adoption：WSDL, WS-Policy, WS-TX • Extend：WS-bQOS, WS-SLA, WS-Rating, …. • Extend and adopt BPM technology • EERP-BPM • Focus on the optimize the end to end business objectives • Directly support the business objective optimization.

  9. EERP progress • Business model investigation • From customer • Close up the gap between IT terms and business objective terms; • Lower the learning curve • Reduce the adoption barrier • From vendors • How to introduce an application that deals with business objectives, • how to stimulate the market demand, • how to overcome the possible long adoption period and sales barrier.

  10. EERP progress • Technology R&D • For customers • SaaS deployment, fewer clicks to result • Easy to lookup relevant service provider • Domain knowledge and industry vertical stat. • For vendors • SOA/Webservice • Service QOS/Rating data generation (static, dynamic, …) • Service SLA implementation

  11. EERP frame • Characters of EERP：On demand • Platform to support third party services • Dynamic identification of services • Flexible integration of services • Loosely coupled integration environment • Share of service resources with other EC service providers • Business collaboration support • Intelligent service composition • End to end collaboration • Optimization of business process • ….

  18. EERP standard consideration • Service description: • Definition • Function • Location (online, geographic) • Interface • QOS • SLA binding • Access control • …..

  19. Service Business QOS • Definition • QoS compliance • Service • Sub-process • End to end • QOS publication, modification and update • QOS optimization • QOS inter-exchange • …..

  20. SLA for Service Collaboration • Definition of SLA • Reference to the tele service SLA • Service SLA binding • Compliance to SLA • SLA exception process • Exception handling • SLA access control and interfaces • SLA over-write and termination • SLA dynamic modification and update • On demand SLA

  24. EERP early adoption • Customer acquisition • China Netcom EERP based Chemical eCommerce service portal • Government funded • Changfeng member company, eBridgeChina, developed the service portal • Launched Dec. 15, 2007 • 20,000 chemical companies and service providers • Over 2000 usages of EERP process evaluation tool.

  25. EERP reference implementation • EERP in chemical industry • Why choose chemical industry: • Chemical industry typically is company clusters around a few major industry giants; • Those industry giants usually are the producers, master distributors or key consumers of raw/basic materials, while the SME in these clusters conduct frequent business transactions with those giants； • The transportation, warehouse, and other logistic process may take a significant portion of transaction expense. The EERP can substantially reduce the over transaction expense by optimizing external service costs。

  28. Summary and Plan • After three year’s R&D, promotion and sales marketing activities: • Completion of basic theory and relevant framework • Completion of the framework of some initial standards • Completion of two prototypes • Establish International collaboration force • Focuses in 2008： • OASIS TC • Completion of three OASIS EERP standard drafts • Continue to push for large scale adoption
