11 SOA Mediation The main drivers Your Needs Our Approach The Results Respond to Business Faster Simple, code-free, configuration Increased developer productivity and timeto-market Reduce Operational Risk Enable consumption of shared services, service consumer and providers Reduce IT complexity Save Development Cost and Time Intelligent reuse of services Cut costs and create a value-driven IT culture

12 Introducing webmethods Mediator Service Consumers Policy Metrics Service Providers Versioning Security SLA Location Protocols

13 SOA Manifesto guiding principles include: 1 Separate the different aspects of a system that change at different rates 2 Evolve services and their organization in response to real use 3 Reduce and publish all dependencies to increase robustness and reduce the impact of change Source: The SOA Manifesto,

14 SOA Guiding Principle #1 1 Separate the different aspects of a system that change at different rates Enforce Security Policies Enforce Service Level Agreements Alert based on Service Performance

15 SOA Guiding Principle #2 2 Evolve services and their organization in response to real use Shield Consumers from backend service changes Route Service Request Monitor Service Consumption

16 SOA Guiding Principle #3 3 Reduce and publish all dependencies to increase robustness and reduce the impact of change Manage multiple versions of the service Maintain Protocol & Format Independence Ensure Location Transparency
