Using an Enterprise Application Infrastructure to deliver Rich Internet Applications with sub second response times Many years ago, the vast majority of organizations expected and
received sub second response times from their applications. With
the advent of the Web, browsers and GUI environments, respone times
have been getting longer and longer particularly for 'power users'
within an organization. There is now an infrastructure available
that can deliver flexibility, user friendly graphical interfaces
and sub second response times. Why is IT Integration Problematic?Why is integration so problematic and how can organizations significantly
reduce the cost, complexity and risk associated with integration
projects? This Article looks at the traditional approach to integration
and contrasts it with a new approach that dramatically reduces the
time, complexity and cost of integration projects. Business Data Access ViewAll businesses have enormous amounts of data which is exposed via various interfaces and applications, however, rarely if ever does one application, one database table or one file represent a complete piece of business related data. The SOA Gateway allows you to map your existing data and business logic assets into composite views that reflect the business view of the data. This means any new project that needs to be delivered quickly in 2009 can deal with business related concepts and objects when viewing or updating your core data assets This paper is intended to give technical architects and project
managers an understanding of how the SOA Gateway can expose views
of your existing data that reflect the business object rather than
the physical location or form of the data on your organization’s
IT systems. Data AggregationThe explosion in the amount of data that is being maintained in various databases across organizations has resulted in an eclectic mix of technologies where this data resides. When the data spans multiple technologies, platforms and even multiple organizations, it is practically impossible to cost effectively get at this data in a standard way using traditional tools and technologies. The SOA Gateway makes data from multiple platforms and databases available in a standard way, quickly, simply and in a cost effective manner This paper is intended to give technical architects and project
managers a detailed view of how the SOA Gateway can help them where
data (aggregation) from multiple sources is required. Integration Projects A Level One IntegrationThere are many projects that need to be completed in organizations where level one (quick and easy access) access to data and business logic is acceptable. In such cases it is generally not very cost effective to make data and business logic available directly using traditional integration tools and technologies. This paper is intended to give technical architects and project
managers a detailed view of how the SOA Gateway can help them where
level one (quick and easy access) integration with existing data
and business logic is required in their projects. The SOA Gateway and MQ Persistent MessagingAll organizations are now so dependent on their IT infrastructures that any outage, whether planned or unplanned, can cause massive inconvenience. However, there are regular points where planned outages are required sometimes nightly, weekly, monthly or even yearly and thus the business applications must be designed to continue operating in as far as possible while specific resources are unavailable. This is not a simple task as enabling continuous operation while
resources are unavailable must be designed into an application from
the start. The traditional approach to this was very effective but
used proprietary interfaces, took months to implement and was extremely
costly. This paper illustrates how MQ persistent messaging and the
SOA Gateway can ensure that business IT systems can continue to
function over planned and unplanned outages of critical resources
such as DB2 in a standard way with absolutely no loss of data or
functionality Green Integration An alternative to traditional integrationIT infrastructure and application decisions can have a significant impact on the environment and Green agenda. Organizations are now more aware than ever that adopting green policies for their IT decisions can save money as well as the environment. All companies have IT integration issues to some degree and this document will show how using the SOA Gateway can considerably simplify a number of integration scenarios while also adhering to the green agenda. This paper is intended to give IT personnel an understanding of
the how the SOA Gateway provides a ‘Green’ alternative to traditional
integration methodologies EntireX Persistent MessagingAll organizations are now so dependent on their IT infrastructures that any outage, whether planned or unplanned, can cause massive inconvenience. However, there are regular points where planned outages are required sometimes nightly, weekly, monthly or even yearly and thus the business applications must be designed to continue operating in as far as possible while specific resources are unavailable. This is not a simple task as enabling continuous operation while
resources are unavailable must be designed into an application from
the start. The traditional approach to this was very effective but
used proprietary interfaces, took months to implement and was extremely
costly. This paper will illustrate how using the standards based
approach offered by the SOA Gateway technology and the message persistence
offered by EntireX Communicator, continuous operation can be supported
quickly and in a cost effective manner by enabling the project to
focus on the business processes required instead of the plumbing.
