Service-Oriented Management Technology Landscape Report: How Web Services Management is the Key to the Service-Oriented Architecture»rank:by: ZapThink, Jason Bloomberg
: :Key Findings: Web Services management (WSM) software is software that helps companies manage the systems and applications that underlie their Web Services. Service-oriented management (SOM) software is software that supports the development and execution of a Service-oriented architecture. By 2007, 60% of the total system management market will consist of large vendors who offer SOM solutions, and a full 75% of the system management market (both small and large vendors) will be SOM-enabled. The market for Service-Oriented Management is expected to grow from $30 million in 2002 to $9.2 Billion by 2007. Web Services Management solutions bridge ... |
Growing an Agile Service-Oriented Architecture White Paper: Achieving Reuse & Loose Coupling through Web Services Delivery Contracts»rank: 4302869by: ZapThink, Jason Bloomberg
: :Web Services are lowering the costs of integration in companies around the globe today. Even small, point-to-point integration projects achieve substantial, rapid ROI using a Web Services integration approach. As companies become more Web Services savvy, the benefits of a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) become apparent. SOAs provide a framework for flexible, low cost enterprise integration. They also lead to substantial business agilitya primary goal in todays fast-paced business environments. Much of the ROI derived from an SOA comes from the ability to reuse Services. To maximize the reusability of Services in an SOA, it is critical to ... |

Context & Identity White Paper: The Linchpins of Web Services Security»rank: 4302869by: ZapThink, Jason Bloomberg
: :Enterprise identity and access management capabilities are a fundamental prerequisite for the implementation of mission-critical Web Services, because such Services provide a layer of abstraction that hides the complexity of underlying technology while at the same time providing increased value to the business user of those Web Services. Such an abstraction layer, however, can lead to the loss of security context, where the information about the identity and access privileges of a requester of a particular Service may be lost to the underlying applications that provide the data and functionality being requested.Identity-based Web Services security solutions like ... |
ZapThinkTank 2003: Web Services and SOA Implementation Roadmap Presentation: Presentation delivered at ZapThinkTank 2003»rank: 5446110by: ZapThink, Jason Bloomberg, Ronald D. Schmelzer
: :Financial services and insurance firms today are struggling with the best way to implement IT infrastructures that enable business agility. Service-oriented architectures based on Web Services provide cost-effective approaches to achieving companies' agility goals. This session provides companies of all sizes and industries an approach to implementing Service-oriented architectures in a way that provides return-on-investment (ROI) at each step along the path toward agile IT infrastructures. We will discuss the steps and phases by which these companies can move from today's brittle infrastructures to loosely-coupled, coarse-grained, asynchronous SOAs. The session covers concepts in point-to-point Web Services implementations ... |

Processing XML on the Network White Paper: The Importance of the Data Layer»rank: 4688007by: ZapThink, Ronald D. Schmelzer, Jason Bloomberg
: :The dramatic increase of Web Services and other XML traffic on todays enterprise networks presents serious security, management, and performance considerations for the IT manager. At the root of the problem: existing network devices such as routers, firewalls, and load balancers operate at the packet level, rather than at the data or content level. As a result, existing network infrastructures are entirely unable to provide the data-level security that enterprises need. To meet this need, vendors are offering a variety of solutions with a confusing array of features. These products fall into two broad, overlapping categories: network ... |

The Complete Vision of Service-Oriented Enterprise Management White Paper»rank: 6246044by: ZapThink, Ronald D. Schmelzer, Jason Bloomberg
: :Companies have long been striving to meet two critical goals in their enterprise: how to make their existing systems work better together, and how to gain critical visibility into how their various processes and systems are contributing to overall business goals. Into this arena, Service-Oriented Architectures and Web Services are introducing the concept of standards-based, loosely-coupled integration to help solve the first problem of managing intractable business integration problems. At the same time, these approaches lend themselves particularly well to providing greater visibility into business processes and system performance. Traditionally, the areas of systems management, business management, ... |
Events vs. Services: The Real Story White Paper: Best Practices in Event-Driven SOA»rank: 2571213by: ZapThink, Jason Bloomberg
: :Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an approach to distributed computing that considers software functionality as Services on the network. Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) is an approach where events trigger asynchronous messages that are then sent between independent software components. Some people think that these two approaches are different, alternative takes on distributed computing, but thats not correct. In fact, SOA supports a variety of interactions, many of which are event-driven. To truly understand the power of SOA, its important to keep in mind that SOA represents an abstraction layer that masks the complexity of the underlying technology, including the ... |
