Top six HP post-merger challenges • Budget cuts were ‘de rigueur’. • Employees had to re-think the way they work. • HP/Compaq merger was a key impetus for change. • Rationalization, consolidation and integration were needed immediately! • More than one hundred storefronts existed. • Consolidation was mandatory. • Consolidation required simultaneous revision of front and back-end systems. • Tight coupling would cause repetitive reworking. • An eclectic collection of technologies existed. • Rationalization and integration were required. • Continue to meet business objectives • Systems had to remain operational during the change period. HP Restricted
The HP conundrum • Continue to do business and make changes • Operate HP and Compaq systems • Integrate the two sets of legacy system functionality • Consolidate storefronts, front and back-end systems • Provide regional customization without duplicate effort • And… • concurrently remove $1B of operating expense!!

Benefits of SOA • Compelling business benefits • Invest once, leverage many times in different contexts • Help eliminate duplicate functionality; Potentially huge cost savings • Time to market: Solutions can leverage existing re-usable services • Re-use of business processes, ensuring consistency • End solutions will be free to focus on providing a superior user experience HP Restricted
Initial eBusiness objectives • Find ways of doing business with reduced budget • Globally standardize eBusiness processes • Define architecture approach that enables • Simultaneous consolidation and evolution of customer-facing storefronts and back-end systems without repeated integration • Improved ability to adapt rapidly to changing business requirements • Increased centralized development, but allows regional customization and deployment • Use of multiple legacy technologies HP Restricted
eBusiness SOA approach: Guiding Principles that evolved for SOA • Start with bottom-up approach and evolve to top-down approach in second wave • Start with simple SOA model to build early success and then scale infrastructure • Shared services are provided by HP IT only • Heavy lifting to be done in shared services • Thin regional ownership • (i.e., storefront framework with regional responsibility for customization) • No charge-back for services consumed • Avoided analysis/paralysis by focusing on initial customer need, but ensured that architecture was flexible enough to extend for additional consumers • Only created services in response to specific customer demand • Build the service for a user, not a perceived need HP Restricted
Bottom-up: initially adopted Pick the “low hanging fruit” Choose services intuitively recognized as having quick return-on-investment Select services that can be shared across multiple initiatives Prefer services with well understood requirements Advantages of bottom-up Avoid the paralysis-of-analysis syndrome Provide examples of early success Makes selling ideas easier Evolutionary approach adopted Informal Governance initially Evolve and mature services as required Top-down: right for second wave Use time bought by bottom-up approach for parallel long-term improvement efforts Continue process standardization Refine services and initiatives selection criteria eBusiness SOA approach: Guiding principles — Deployment HP Restricted
eBusiness SOA approach: Common guiding principles for service selection • Service identification • Somewhere between an art and a science • Key to succeeding with an SOA • With too few coarse-grained services, each service might become overly complex and monolithic • Too many fine-grained services might introduce an unsustainable amount of communication and collaboration overhead • Service selection candidates ~ pick those where … • Business processes are common and used by many • Must have common processes for shared services • Expected return-to-complexity ratio is greatest • Targeted business process are: • Stable, transactional, relatively small information “payload” HP Restricted

eBusiness SOA experience —Development • Implementing SOA • Facilitating web services development • Development frameworks were created to facilitate service development and consumption • Promote the use of design patterns and best practices in the creation of web services (logging, error-handling, metrics gathering) • Offer a foundation that codifies the use of best practices and serves as a better starting point • Tools developed to facilitate integration of service into application code • Code samples to call service provided • Test system available • Consulting provided by eBusiness to assist consumer development teams • Versioning quickly emerged as an important capability once the services were deployed to multiple consumers HP Restricted
Services Spotlight – Financial Gateway Service • Problem • Many storefronts with one-off custom code, contracts and processes for the same basic functions - payment processing and fraud • Solution • Payment Gateway Service / Risk Management Service – a suite of globally available financial services • Credit card authorization, payment and settlement in over 200 currencies • Storefront configurable fraud checking and address validation • Payment via leasing, PO and echeck • Restricted party validation (Are we allowed to sell to this party?)

Results realized using SOA • Reduced the cost of IT • Significant reduction in the cost of development by eliminating duplication • Enabled aggressive cost management system • Forced paradigm shift in business • Encourages the business to define and standardize their processes in a more modular way • Forces collaboration and consensus between business groups on what business processes are and how they should work • More consistent customer experience • Consistent business processes provide a more consistent experience across customer segments, product lines and geographies HP Restricted
