13. What a mess ..... :-(
How can I make this better?
13

14. Solution

SOA Governance can solve this problem

Governance applied to 4 phases
– Architectural Governance
– Design time Governance
– Operational Governance
– Organisational/Political Governance
14

15. Ok.. show me how..

24. hmm....ok..
now we have services
in production.
What's next?

34. My organisation follows
an adhoc methodology...
34

35. Organisational/Political Governance
35

36. Show me how the scenario
changes after following
all these..
36

37. SOA Governance applied...
37

38. Hmm.. looks lot cleaner..
How to identify if I have
Problems in my SOA
Governance framework?
38

39. Quality of execution

Bad one
– No planning and coordination of service
projects
– Single-use services and point-to-point
connections
– Change Management issues
39

40. Quality of execution

Good one
– Well scoped, recognisable business benefits
– Sharing of services & data types
– Ability to recognise issues early
40

41. Looks like Registry/Repository
is a key concept..
41

42. Registry/Repository

Service configurations
– wsdl

Server configurations
– jboss.xml
– server.xml

Deployable artifacts
– jar,aar,ear,war,etc..

Meta data related to implementations
– hibernate-config.xml 42
– jaxb-mappings.xml

43. So.. what does WSO2 has
to offer in this space?
43

44. WSO2 Governance Registry

Lightweight registry & repository

Governance framework for building customer
specific governance features

Open Source - Apache License, Version 2.0

Commercial support available (if needed)
44

45. WSO2 Governance Registry


49. Looks like service is a key
component in SOA...

50. Service in SOA

Heart of SOA

Life cycle
– Designed
– Developed
– QA passed
– In Production

Metadata
– WSDL
– Schema 50
– Policy

52. If I am evaluating a SOA Governance
Product, what are the

look for?

54. Core Concepts

Publish & Discovery

– Most important of all..
– Governance cannot be bought, you need to
customise it..
– BAM (Business Activity Monitoring)
– BI (Business Intelligence) gathering
– CEP (Complex Event Processing)
66

67. I want to introduce SOA Governance
to my organisation. Give me some best
practises..
67

68. Best Practises

Establish early

Organisational acceptance for Governance

Communicate relentlessly

Automate

Govern the entire service lifecycle

Anticipate mixed technologies

Monitory,access & report business value

Consider cross organisational boundaries

69. If I use WSO2 Governance Registry,
what are the recommended deployment
Architectures? ..

71. Deployment Architecture 2
71

72. Are there patterns associated with
SOA Governance?
72

73. Patterns – Compatible Change
• Problem - Changing an already-published
service contract can impact and invalidate
existing consumer programs.
73

74. Patterns – Compatible Change
74

75. Patterns – Compatible Change
75

76. Pattern – Version Identification

Problem - When an already-published service
contract is changed, unaware consumers will
miss the opportunity to leverage the change or
may be negatively impacted by the change.
76

77. Pattern – Version Identification
77

78. Pattern – Version Identification
78

79. Pattern – Proxy Capability

Problem - How can a service subject to
decomposition continue to support consumers
affected by the decomposition?
79

80. Pattern – Proxy Capability
80

81. Pattern – Proxy Capability
81

82. Pattern – Distributed Capability

Problem - How can a service preserve its
functional context while also fulfilling special
capability processing requirements?
82

83. Pattern – Distributed Capability
83

84. Pattern – Distributed Capability
84

85. Pattern – Termination Notification

Problem - How can the scheduled expiry of a
service contract be communicated to
consumer programs?
