The Connectivity Challenge

Why?

• Reduce Complexity • Manage Exponential Change • Ensure Compliance • Reduce Cost • Improve Control

Customers want to improve this…. … to run their business like this.

11

SOA simplifies connectivity interfaces…

SOA turns this… …into this.

Application Application Application Application

Application Application Application Application

Service Service Service Service

Service Service Service Service

Interface Interface Interface

Interface Interface Interface Interface

= interface

Enables re-use of both the business applications and their interfaces.

Decouples the interfaces from the business applications.

Reduces the number and technical complexity of interfaces.

Introduces rich business abstractions to describe the application interface.

What is an ESB?

13

What is an Enterprise Service Bus?

An Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is a flexible connectivity infrastructure for integrating applications and services.

Shape = Transport protocol

Color = Data format

An ESB performs the following between

requestor and service

CONVERTS between different transport protocols

MATCHES & ROUTES communications between services

TRANSFORMS between different data formats

IDENTIFIES & DISTRIBUTES business events

Message Brokering

Message broker supports comprehensive selection of processing nodes When connected, nodes create a message flow

Receive and route messages Transform a message to an alternative representation Select a message for further processing based upon the message content Interact with an external database to augment a message or store the whole or part of a

message Respond to events and errors

24

Monitoring – using ITCAM Agent

ITCAM agent for WebSphere Message Broker helps ensure the reliability and performance of your broker environment. View information and performance statistics for broker

topologies at broker, execution group, message flow, node, terminal, and thread level in both tabular and chart form

Issue IBM broker product commands using the ITCAM agent to directly manage your environment

Receive alerts when performance thresholds are exceeded or when message flow events occur

Retain data samples in history files and save them to a historical database for reporting and analysis purposes

WebSphere Lombardi Integration with Other Systems

Lombardi supports both outbound and inbound integrations. Outbound - Lombardi communicates with an external system to retrieve, update, or insert data. For outbound integrations, you need to create a Lombardi Integration service. Integration services can include either a Web Service Integration component or a Java Integration component.

Web Service Integration - Uses a Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) connection to access objects from a web service over the Internet. A Web Service Integration component hides the complexity of the underlying WSDL, SOAP request, and SOAP response and also converts inputs into the appropriate XML and outputs into the appropriate Lombardi variables.

Java Integration - Calls methods from a Java class and interfaces with most third-party Java APIs, thus supporting a variety of integration scenarios.

65

WebSphere Lombardi Integration with Other Systems

Inbound - An external system calls into Lombardi to initiate a service. For inbound integrations that involve an external system or application calling into Lombardi to kick off a service, you need to build several Lombardi components and corresponding services.

All items required for an inbound integration - Several components must work together to complete an inbound integration. You can use the procedures in the referenced section to build and test a complete integration.

Message events - Use a message event to represent a point in your process where an incoming message is received from an external system.

Undercover Agent (UCA) - When you include a Message Event in a BPD, you must attach a UCA to the event to call the service that you specify. For example, when a message event is received from an external system, a UCA is needed to invoke the appropriate service in response to the message.

Web Service - Lombardi can publish Web services in the same way that it consumes Web services. Using a SOAP connection, external applications can call the Lombardi Web Service to initiate a particular service or set of services.
