Prescriptive Guidance for SOA Peter Roden Director of Technology Development OASIS
“The largest standards group for electronic commerce on the Web” What is OASIS? • OASIS = Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards • OASIS has been developing e-Standards since 1993 • OASIS is a member-led, international non-profit standards consortium concentrating on structured information and global e-business standards. • Close to 5000 members and 500 organizations • Supports over 60 technical committees producing royalty-free and RAND standards in an open process.
OASIS Member Distribution 50% Technology Providers • Software vendors • Industry organisations • Individuals / small developers 15% Government & Academic • Governments • Universities • Research centres & related nonprofits • 35% • Users and influencers • User companies • Vertical industry organisations • Individuals / small consultancies

Prescriptive: “to lay down as a guide, direction, or rule of action”
Business Centric Methodology TC • BCM templates for the Repository • Information architecture • Connections
SOA Blueprints TC • Methodology • “Open-Source” RFP • Built around Generico • Donation from CapGemini for defining Business Requirements • Donation from WellsFargo • “Open-Source” POC • Vendor-Neutral source of information and benchmarks • Best Practices & Patterns • http://dev.bea.com/technologies/soa/blueprint.jsp • Reference implementations from BEA, Microsoft, Oracle, Sun
SOA Blueprint Goals • Part of a long term project, SOA Blueprints aims to: • Define a baseline standardized set of enterprise applications • Focus on SOA principles • Highlight SOA design patterns and best practices • Encourage SOA adoption • Be industry agnostic • Be applicable to as many organizations as possible • The specification will lead to: • An agreement on SOA terminology • A reference open source implementation • An implementation by vendors • Additional modules with particular industry focus
SOA Blueprints Implementation Environments • Definition of services independent of implementation, location or use • Implementation and hosting of services as a provider • Location and usage of services as a consumer • Assembly of services from other services and business rules • Support for synchronous, asynchronous and conversational services • Orchestration of application presentation built on services and rules • Automated data transformation between disparate data structures • Provisioning of local and remote services • Support for simulating, testing and debugging of services
ebSOA Update the ebXML Architecture in an SOA context Framework for WS Implementation design a template for Web services deployment to enable systems integrators, software vendors, and in-house developers to build e-commerce solutions more quickly SOA Reference Model define a reference model for Service Oriented Architecture Semantic Execution Environment guidelines, justifications and implementation directions for an execution environment for Semantic Web services More OASIS SOA Prescriptive Work
