Presentation Transcript

  1. Setting the record straight :-) • Why is it all those CIO’s are saying “we’re using CORBA” ? • Because they are • every enterprise-wide distributed heterogeneous system • Forrester says they prefer it 2:1

  2. Lies, damn lies, and...

  3. Everybody wants “integration” • A consistent message yesterday was integration of • legacy • new technologies • glue code with less than n2 costs • Today’s hot technology is tomorrow’s legacy and I mean tomorrow (“integrating today’s silver bullet tomorrow”)

  4. Sales Engineering Accounting Manufacturing Payables/ Receivables Shipping/ Receiving Inventory The Business Model Every application is part of your business model; you must make them work together!

  5. Everybody needs standards • Vendors can amortize development costs over large number of customers • Users can amortize development costs over large number of applications • Lowers development risk for both vendors & users • Creates market for differentiation based on product dimensions that matter to customers

  6. Standards get set how? • De facto standardization by market leader • theoretically more consistent • De jure standardization by committee • time to market too high • Consortium standardization by industry consensus • somewhere between the two

  7. Finding the right point De facto De jure Consensus, open specifications with no reference implementation

  8. Specification Availability 1. OMG adopts & publishes interfaces. 2. Interfaces must be commercially available. 3. Interfaces freely available to members and non-members alike. 4. Interfaces chosen from existing products in competitive selection process.

  9. Leveraging Infrastructure Telecommunications, Healthcare, Finance, Electronic Commerce, Business Objects, Manufacturing, Transportation, Life Sciences, Utilities, Analytical Data Management, C4I, Customer Information Systems, Retail, Space Systems……. CORBA - UML - MOF The OMG Process

  10. Full lifecycle standards Maintain Deploy Design Analyze Customers want standards across the lifecycle….

  11. Open, consensus standards • Open, neutral, consensus standards enable product differentiation on customer-critical dimensions • price, performance • quality • support • additional features, level of integration

  12. Cooperative Vision • Focus on consensus • Build on existing infrastructure • Leverage specifications built over our first ten years history • Use existing technology where possible • Move quickly to fill openings • Enable portability and interoperability
