Book Description
Business process innovation is on the minds of executives these days, and for good reason. In the 1990s, companies also had a focus on business processes. They used enterprise-wide networks to tear down walls between functional departments and reengineered their companies to remain competitive. Today, the universal connectivity of the Internet makes it possible to tear down walls between companies to reinvent entire value chains. The result? We are now witnessing a grand globalization of white collar work, outsourcing, offshoring and other new forms of extreme competition. Industry and national boundaries have become a blur. All is changed, and no industry is exempt. Pioneering companies have already disrupted incumbents and come from nowhere to dominate their industries. Their secret sauce? Business process management (BPM). This book brings together some of the best minds to explore the role and value of BPM, and what it portends. In its pages you will find the essential discussions and insights, straight from the thought leaders. In Search of BPM Excellence is for those who want to sustain the success of their businesses in the midst of the current sea of change. Is your company ready for extreme competition?

EAI Entreprise Application Integration

Authors : Matjaz B. Juric - S.Jeelani Basha - Rich Leander - Ramesh Nagappan
Peer Information Inc - 2002 - 1000 pages
Book Description :
Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) has been the driving force behind application and information system development of the last few years. The Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) provides an ideal environment in which to integrate different domains, architectures, and technologies to create available, scalable, and secure enterprise information systems. This book presents a methodology and process to create an integrated information infrastructure based on the J2EE platform, using technologies such as XML, EJB, JMS, CORBA, RMI-IIOP and the J2EE Connector Architecture. This infrastructure provides an architecture that facilitates integration at the data, component, and application levels. Through the use of component wrappers and virtual components, existing applications can be replaced and new developments seamlessly integrated into the integrated architecture. The book takes you through the various stages in the integration process, from design and analysis, through integration of data, via integration of components and applications, to the integration of the user interface. At each stage the book discusses the relevant Java technologies that enable a common integration platform and how to employ them to this purpose.


SOA Service Oriented Architecture


SOA Principles of Service Design

SOA Principles of Service Design
by Thomas Erl
Prentice Hall - 2007 - 608 pages
Book Description :
The Definitive Guide to Service Engineering
The key to succeeding with service-oriented architecture (SOA) is in comprehending the meaning and significance of its most fundamental building block: the service. It is through an understanding of service design that truly “service-oriented” solution logic can be created in support of achieving the strategic goals associated with SOA and service-oriented computing. Bestselling SOA author Thomas Erl guides you through a comprehensive, insightful, and visually rich exploration of the service-orientation design paradigm, revealing exactly how services should and should not be designed for real-world SOA.

SOA Using Java Web Service

SOA Using Java Web Service
by Mark D. Hansen
Prentice Hall - 2002 - 608 pages
Book Description :
SOA Using Java™ Web Services is a hands-on guide to implementing Web services and Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) with today's Java EE platform, SOA application frameworks, and the advanced GlassFish application server. Author Mark Hansen presents in explicit detail the information that enterprise developers and architects need to succeed, from best-practice design techniques to state-of-the-art code samples. Hansen covers creating, deploying, and invoking Web services that can be composed into loosely coupled SOA applications. He begins by reviewing the "big picture," including the challenges of Java-based SOA development and the limitations of traditional approaches. Next, he systematically introduces the latest Java EE 5 Web Services APIs and walks through creating Web services that integrate into a comprehensive SOA solution. Finally, he shows how application frameworks can streamline the entire SOA development process and introduces one such framework- SOA-J. The book Introduces practical techniques for managing the complexity of Web services and SOA, including best-practice design examples Offers hard-won insights into building effective SOA applications with Java Web Services (JWS) Illuminates recent major JWS improvements--including two full chapters on JAX-WS 2.0 Thoroughly explains SOA integration using WSDL, SOAP, Java/XML mapping, and JAXB 2.0 data binding Walks step by step through packaging and deploying components with JSR-181 (WSMetadata 2.0) and JSR-109 Includes specific code solutions for many development issues, from publishing REST endpoints to consuming services without WSDL Presents a complete case study in non-disruptive SOA deployment using SAP R/3 The book contains hundreds of code samples, all tested with GlassFish and downloadable from the companion Web site.
