The Nex Generation of SOA
1 like488 views
The document discusses the next generation of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), focusing on governance, maturation, and the Resource and Information Federation Framework (RIFF) to enhance resource visibility and management across organizations. It emphasizes the need for systematic governance, the handling of diverse resources, and the support of emerging technologies while addressing silos and underutilization in enterprise environments. The RIFF aims to facilitate effective resource discovery and collaboration, ultimately supporting scalable SOA implementations in complex settings.

- 5. What Is SOA Governance? The discipline of creating, communicating and enforcing SOA policies, processes and standards – And measuring and improving their effectiveness The processes and procedures to – Ensure that all of the independent SOA-related activities come together to meet the mission and the mission-support requirements – Coordinate activities between people and programs – Pro-actively manage SOA-related activities so there is compliance with the policies, standards and procedures under which the SOA operates -5- The Next Generation SOA.pptx A framework to provide greater management visibility and control regarding the activities and results of the SOA program to policy makers and stakeholders, with less effort

- 13. Enterprise-wide Resource Usage Goals and Objectives Broad definition of resources across DoD and partners Sensors, actuators, shooters, imagery sources, video sources, audio sources, web sites, web services, ERPs, systems, RDBMS, etc. Support the widest set of resources, technologies and information models Additional Characteristics Scalable – Federation – Find them – “does the resource meet the mission need” Information Model Descriptions and Information Model Definitions Communicate with them – “how to communicate wrt formats, protocols, ports, security policies” Extensible to new resources, technologies and information models emerging over the next 520 years Heterogeneous – Support the widest set of resources, technologies and information models – Resource Description Understand them – “what vocabulary do they use” and “how to interpret the information/data” Federate work across multiple organizations, COIs and IPTs Extensible and Adaptable – What do you need when you want to use one or more resources? Precise definitions support machine automation necessary to scale to 10,000s or 100,000s of resources Avoid being limited to describing current resources, technologies, and information models Support Incremental Adoption – Leverage existing DoD registries and repositories Legacy support & backwards compatibility – Describe existing resources and vocabularies Support anticipated & unanticipated users But do not replace comm protocols - 13 - The Next Generation SOA.pptx Interface Description

RIFF Summary Goal Discussion Find Resources RIFF supports resource descriptions and discovery that is Precise – semantic models Relevant – organized for mission support Complete – resource/interface/information Available on demand Understand Resources RIFF information models descriptions Precise Descriptions – semantic models Universal – categorize and catalog any information model Extensible – add new types of information models as needed Usable - RIFF built on Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 technologies Access Resources RIFF supports resource descriptions that include Interaction Model – Interactive, Programmatic, Request/Reply, Streaming, Event Source, etc. Access Description – Format(s), Protocol(s), Security Model(s), etc. RIFF enables precise definitions/descriptions needed to scale to 10,000s or 100,000s of resources Collaborate RIFF built on Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 technologies Federation OWL technology enables federation of resource and information models developed by different mission and business domains (i.e. COIs) Incremental Adoption RIFF descriptions can refer to existing artifacts in existing DoD registries and repositories – DDMS/MDR, NCES Discovery Services, AMPS, etc Legacy Support and Backwards Compatibility RIFF can describe the widest set of resources, technologies and info models RIFF can describe existing resources and vocabularies Extensible and Adaptable RDF and OWL are designed to be extensible Easier to extend than DB schema, XML schema, etc. Open Standards RDF and OWL are W3C standards Growing community of skilled professions - 18 - The Next Generation SOA.pptx Precise, Scalable and Automated
- 19. Closing Points Systematic governance, both at design-time and at run-time, is essential in this emerge complex environment Machine “process-able” discovery and mediation will be required in order to effective Next Generation SOA will need to leverage more COTS and less custom coding in order to be cost effective, open-source technology will need to be considered wisely as well. - 19 - The Next Generation SOA.pptx The Next Generation of SOA will need to scale to 10,000s, if not 100,000s of services / resources

Editor's Notes
- #10: Operating of the Coast of New OrleansLandscape Commercial Resources – AIS transponders, Data Repository with Vessel Registration, Ship Manifest and Bill of Laden Federal Government Resources – Coast Guard Cutter Ships and Stations, Homeland Security, Terror Watchlist, Suspicious Activity Reports State and Local Resources – Chemical and Biological Sensors, Police and First Responders Military Resources Air Force and Naval Radar, Satellite, UAVsScenarioELINT Analyst Monitoring his sensors is alerted to a suspicious vessel entering the protection boundaryJoint Operation Center Officer is alerted and the incident is trackedChallenges The JOC Officer does not have a complete or informed understanding of the resources in his AOR.These resources are not all military or even federalThe resource move in and out of his AORCoordination between the systems is difficult and the operation is conducted in Silo-ed systems as we will see in the next slideThe Speed at which decision must be made is increasing and our ability to synthesize information is stagnatingWe are making less informed decisionsSometimes this is due to a glut of information that is not neededSometimes this is due to not having enough information (the right information)
- #11: Current approaches for Meta-data, Vocabulary definition, and SOA discovery are not working.
