Service-Oriented Architecture

CAPABILITIES

• Service creation and enablement: Create services including SOAP and REST-style services. Implement new services or use our adapters to expose business logic and data from core systems. Service-enable Oracle®, SAP® and other core apps, databases and legacy systems. Drag-and-drop to transform services into higher-level business services

• Service access mediation: Create virtual services from actual services shielding consuming applications from changes to underlying services. Run multiple service versions side by side. Improve compatibility between service consumers and service providers by switching protocols and transforming message formats “on the fly.” Use policies to uniformly secure your services and remove the burden from consumers and providers for security. Instead of specifying policies for each service, enforce them as a group on all services that meet specific criteria

• Service life-cycle governance: Store and organize services, schemas and other SOA assets in a central, platform-independent SOA registry and repository. Capture rich descriptions of your assets with owner, location, design and usage details. Use policies to guide the design and development of good quality services. Easy search capabilities allow you to quickly find services for re-use. Use a graphical and interactive view of assets and their relationships. Explore the entire asset landscape and find downstream impact of any proposed changes

• Service monitoring and management: Gain real-time visibility into what’s happening with service transactions as they flow across your heterogeneous SOA infrastructure. Capture service levels and metrics for any protocols or platforms. Pinpoint root causes by using snapshot of the full transaction taken in the event of an error or Service Level Agreement (SLA) violation. Discover services running in your environment and detect any rogue services or consumers
