Synopses & Reviews
Foreword by Ray Harishankar, IBM Fellow
There are many books on the market on the topic of SOA and SOA's business and technology value. This book focuses on one of the key technical values of SOA and does an excellent job of describing SOA-based application integration by clarifying the relationship and patterns of SOA with other integration technologies in a distributed computing environment. Sandra Carter, IBM Vice President for SOA, BPM, and WebSphere Marketing
Services Oriented Architectures present many challenges today in the integration of existing systems and new systems, along with many times, old legacy mainframe applications. This book successfully addresses many of the complexities we see in the integration of SOA and mainframe legacy applications, presenting options and approaches to integrate the applications with the rest of the enterprise. The author takes a clearly defined pattern-based approach discussing the advantages, tools and methods. Readers will benefit from the insights in this book whether they play the architect role or a developer role on a SOA project. Sue Miller-Sylvia, IBM Fellow and Application Development Service Area Leader
Synopsis
Transform existing software applications to SOA-based systems
Written by a senior IT architect from IBM, this is a practical guide to implementing Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) within the enterprise. It is the first book to clearly explain the rationale for using SOA in enterprise integration, and the only book that explicitly explains the various options that are available for integrating mainframe applications, as well as packaged applications such as SAP, Oracle, and IBM.
SOA-based Enterprise Integration is the first book to detail in a practical manner how to use Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) within an integration scenario. Auxiliary services and the tools that are available to develop, deploy and manage SOA-based integration are also covered.
