Oracle Fusion Middleware enables
customers to adopt and manage SOAs in heterogeneous computing environments.
The Oracle Fusion Middleware
product family includes solution areas for Development Tools, User Interaction,
, Business Intelligence, Content Management, SOA & Business Process Management,
Application Server, Grid Infrastructure, Identity Management & Enteprise Performance
Management.
 Oracle
BPEL manager:
Oracle BPEL process manager includes BPEL designer
(Jdeveloper, Eclipse), BPEL Server, console and database. BPEL Designer enables
to develop sophisticated business processes in a graphical environment without having
to write code can be deployed on BPEL server.
Service
Oriented Architectures
SOA enables organizations to design software systems
that provide services to other applications through published and discoverable interfaces.
Implementation of SOA using Web services technologies is a new way of building applications
within a more powerful, flexible programming model. The architecture provides greater
process standardization and facilitates better integration of applications and data
across the entire organization. SOA is organized as a set of interacting services
that are loosely coupled and location-transparent. SOA facilitates silo software
applications to be reorganized so that they can be mixed-matched, and pieced together
dynamically. Using SOA, components can be built integration-ready.
Benefits
of SOA:
================================================
 Business
services across the platforms
Location independence
Services need not be at a particular system or particular network
Completely loosely coupled approach
Authentication and authorization support at every level
The search and connectivity to other services is dynamic
CDC Global Services (CDCGS) utilizes
Oracle Fusion Middleware product
family to develop, deploy and management of Service Oriented Architecture. By adopting
SOA approach, CDCGS can help customers to ~
Streamline Mergers and acquisitions
Enhance visibility and control into the key business process
Reduce IT costs
CDCGS offers wide range of expertise in architecture and design
of SOA standards such as Web Services, utilize BPEL (Business process Execution
Language), ESB (Enterprise Service Bus), Business rules, Human workflow and BAM
(Business Activity Monitoring) to effectively move the existing applications to
service oriented model.

Methodology:
CDC Global Services can help customers
to identify the current state of SOA capabilities using Oracle’s Level 5 SOA
Maturity Model. This model gives top level management a point of reference to evaluate
the SOA maturity level of their organizations.
Level One: Opportunistic
Businesses identify simple projects that can be completed
quickly, most often building a service on top of an existing application and exposing
it to a user through a Web portal. From a process standpoint, organizations at this
level are just beginning to discover and resolve cross-business control issues such
as data ownership and conflicts between departmental processes.
Level Two: Tactical
An organization at the second stage has made more
than one application available as a set of services, and users commonly interact
with composite applications assembled from those services. Service reuse starts
to kick in and so does the use of Web services security and management solutions
to apply different security policies to services. They are also beginning to develop
more sophisticated user and identity management infrastructures. Further, the business
has begun to use an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) and business process execution
language (BPEL) technology to integrate its applications, building SOA services
that consume other services through interactions orchestrated with BPEL.
Level Three: Strategic
As a company progresses to increasing SOA maturity
the focus starts to be less on technology and more on organizational changes. Level
three is about strategic business change using SOA and Business Process Management
technology to automate manual business processes and drive business improvement.
SOA provides the technology foundation to make this happen. At this stage, an organization
regularly uses BPEL to define, automate and change its processes according to business
needs.
Level Four: Enterprise
At this stage, businesses have pervasive measurement
and improvement mechanisms built into their SOA applications that track key performance
indicators (KPIs) and service level agreements (SLAs) in real-time. This information
allows the business to more efficiently and effectively manage its operations and
to optimize business processes in response to real-time and historical data.
Level Five: Industrialized SOA
T
he business operating at level five is engaged in continuous, real-time feedback
that automatically adjusts business processes and systems to changing conditions. |
