The Reconstitution of Middleware with APIs V2
- Middleware is disappearing into code and infrastructure. Code is using simpler constructs with more power, while infrastructure provides scaling, management, and observability.
- APIs are becoming the glue that connects microservices deployed in a decentralized architecture.
- The speaker has contributed to open source projects like Ballerina and WSO2 Choreo, and shares knowledge through blogs, LinkedIn, and evangelizing reference architectures for cloud-native applications.
Architecting the Transformation
Most organizations engaged in transformation today are moving from left to right in digitally-driven maturity models. The objectives are well known: increase agility, boost productivity, and provide seamless digital experiences for consumers.
Architects play a pivotal role as the curators of this transformation. In this session, Asanka will share his experience on how architects can contribute and introduce a framework to follow on refactoring enterprises.
Achieving true Agility through Programmability
Enterprise agility—the ability to adapt fast and seize new opportunities while reducing costs—is critical for an organization to survive and thrive in this evolving digital age. While the rewards of bringing about agile transformation are significant, how many companies really achieve key results? Did you know the success rate is less than 10%? Even organizations that follow various agile methodologies do not adhere to them across the board, resulting in what’s known as agile-waterfall or wagile approaches.
Is there a pragmatic way to become truly agile?
Yes, by embracing programmability. This approach goes beyond infrastructure automation, which is a common practice, by enabling programmatic access to automate actions, procedures, processes, and runtimes used in an application’s entire lifecycle. With programmability and end-to-end automation, teams can increase productivity and flexibility and quickly decommission repeatable tasks; they can also spend more time on implementing innovative ideas.
Asanka will share his experience from applying programmability in successful projects delivered iteratively, rapidly and in a timely way. In addition to the associated lean methodology, he will discuss a supportive reference architecture.

Middleware/cloud capabilities (raw materials) to build an enterprise architecture and roadmap to a connected business.
2015 06-api days-sf-apis-dbridge2iot-asanka
Connected Car … Connected Aeroplane … Connected light bulb…. IoT has become a necessity in every business vertical. A few decades ago enterprises were keen on internal connectivity before attending to external connectivity. But, today it has changed, to connecting anything to everything.
Connecting anything to everything requires additional precautionary measures to be taken in areas such as security and governance.
In addition to this, delivery channels of IoT (devices/sensors) are required to connect with existing backend systems and service platforms to pull and push events. Therefore, IoT architecture requires an unified manner of handling this situation.
APIs, enable extensibility of business operations in internal, external and partner networks. The capability of APIs is such that it can be used to bridge the new IoT world and SOA, EDA, also legacy systems that exists in the enterprises.
During this session Asanka Abeysinghe vice president of Solutions Architecture at WSO2 will discuss the relation between APIs and IoT as well as how APIs can be used as a bridge between IoT and other technology domains. Asanka will explain the reference architecture and describe use-cases around the same, while using WSO2 enterprise middleware and cloud platform as the toolset for implementation.
WSO2Con'14 US - Roadmap to a Connected Business
This document provides a roadmap for connecting a business through modernizing the middleware and APIs. It discusses challenges like complex requirements and rapid release cycles. The roadmap includes assessing current systems, defining the business and solution architecture, and developing APIs and services. It also covers runtime concerns like deployment, security, and monitoring. The goal is to break processes into reusable services, expose services through APIs, manage the API ecosystem, and collect data to continuously improve.
The Reconstitution of Middleware with APIs
Middleware is essential for application development which increases the productivity of full-stack developers by bringing battle hardened functional capabilities covering the majority of a digital-driven project. However, with the adoption to Microservices and cloud-native application architecture middleware cannot use like used in the past, this is a solution for the above problem.
Complexity created by distributed computing encapsulated by the middleware for over two decades and made application developers productive by letting them focus on business logic relevant to their domain. Modern architecture and technology drift, such as Microservices, Cloud-native, and Serverless do not have room to embed middleware into the application development while the need is still there.
In this talk, Asanka is going to deep-dive into an API-centric, decentralized, and code-first approach to fill the void of middleware and make the application developer productive again.
Pattern Driven Enterprise Architecture
Patterns are the universal language of architects to communicate, refer, implement and improve. Architecture patterns from traditional SOA (service-oriented architecture) to ROA (resource-oriented architecture) and today to MSA (microservice architecture) drive most enterprise architectures today. Subpatterns such as EDA (event driven architecture) and WOA (web oriented architecture) also has a lot of traction today. These high-level concepts provide many best practices for enterprise architects that are looking to evolve their existing enterprise architecture or for those creating newer enterprise architecture strategies.
However, where should do we draw the line? Is SOA still the way to go or should we focus on MSA? During this session, Asanka will critically analyze the good, the bad and the ugly (if any) of the various architecture patterns, and jointly figure out where they should fit in.

2014-QCon-SF PaaS for the new Cloud Era
Teams using IaaS and traditional application servers to deploy cloud applications benefit on-demand efficiencies, but continue to spend significant effort on application delivery, including deployment, scaling, and governance. PaaS solutions have helped automate some functions, but still falls short. Examining how to address these challenges with a PaaS, this session will also review the architectural approach of the WSO2 Private PaaS to be cloud native, providing polyglot language and environment support, and ability to run on multiple runtimes.
Driving Enterprise Architecture Redesign: Cloud-Native Platforms, APIs, and D...
High performance architecture is rapidly changing due to three fundamental drivers:
Cloud-Native Platforms - change the way we think about operational infrastructure
DevOps - changes application lifecycle practices
APIs - change how we integrate and evolve infrastructure and applications, especially Mobile apps
In this session, Chris will illustrate:
Why you should consider Cloud-Native architecture components in your Enterprise Architecture
What is DevOps impact on App and API design guidelines
How API-centric focus revises Enterprise Architecture
Data to Consumer : end to end middleware capabilities
Consumer-driven and rapidly changing business requirements are creating the need to go beyond traditional middleware in enterprises today. Because the middleware layer has enough functional capabilities it empowers architects to convert their blueprints to solutions without changing the architecture to fit into the middleware limitations.
Asanka will first look at the evolution of middleware and how current and next-generation middleware looks like (Platform-3.0). Following this, he will analyze the middleware requirements from data (system of record) to consumer (system of engagement) by illustrating a layered architecture of modern enterprise middleware.

WSO2Con-Asia-2014 : Build a Connected Business (final keynote)
Slides from my keynote at WSO2Con-Asia-2014 about the roadmap to build a connected business with WSO2 enterprise middleware and cloud platform.
Roadmap to a Connected Business
Success of a Connected Business depends on robust architecture that will reuse the existing IT assets and fill the gaps by introducing required architecture layers. Having a iterative approach with a milestone plan helps to overcome the technical and non-technical challenges businesses face during implementation. Middleware and Next-Gen Middleware are the raw materials to build an integrated, secured, monitored and governed Connected Business.
Establishing an SOA Focused Enterprise Architecture
This document summarizes Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and how it can help address challenges in Enterprise Architecture (EA). It discusses how SOA enables loosely coupled distributed systems through independent services. Common SOA patterns are presented, including API-centric architectures. EA challenges like lack of visibility, integration issues, and fast development cycles are outlined. The document proposes addressing these through a reference architecture with layered (L0-L1) components and a configuration-driven Business Services Platform. It concludes by demonstrating thin-slice development capabilities enabled by SOA principles.
Cell-based Architecture: An Emerging Architecture Pattern for Agile Integrati...
The number of microservices running in enterprises increases daily. As a result, service composition, governance, security, and observability are becoming a challenge to implement and incorporate. A “cell-based” architecture is an approach that can be applied to current or desired development and technologies to address these issues. This technology-neutral approach helps cloud-native dev teams become more efficient, act in a more self-organized manner, and speed overall release times.
In this talk, Asanka will introduce the “cell-based” reference architecture, which is API-centric, cloud-native and microservices friendly. He will explain the role of APIs in the cell-based approach, as well as examine how real applications are built as cells. Asanka will explore the metrics and approaches that can be used to measure the effectiveness of the architecture and explore how organizations can implement the cell approach.
Securing the Digital Double - The Path to a Trusted Digital Ecosystem
Digital life is a replication of the physical world in a digital ecosystem. As a result, people and things have an equal digital representation, which we call a digital double. Your digital double is active and involved in various activities, even when you take a nap. Therefore, securing the digital double is critical.
As an enterprise or security architect designing digital experiences, you have to pay attention to privacy, confidentiality, trust, and the security of a digital double.
In this session, Asanka will explain an architectural approach to building a trusted digital ecosystem using APIs, integration, and identity.
Iterative Architecture: Your Path to on-time Delivery
Think big, act small. It’s easy to develop a vision, but there are often many architecture barriers along the path to achieving it. Asanka Abeysinghe explores iterative architecture—introducing iterative architectural changes to support business and technical requirements—and shares real-world examples.
Enterprises today operate in complex and competitive markets. They are constantly trying to optimize business functions, introduce new business capabilities, and tap into new markets quickly and efficiently. For the business to be agile, tis software systems must also be agile, with the ability to build and integrate new capabilities in a short time. At the same time, enterprise software systems should help with evolutionary (and revolutionary) changes that will affect core business functions.
Asanka Abeysinghe explores iterative architecture—introducing iterative architectural changes to support business and technical requirements—and shares real-world examples.
A Decentralized Reference Architecture for Cloud-native Applications
The number of microservices running in enterprises increases daily. As a result, service composition, governance, security, and observability are becoming a challenge to implement and incorporate. A “cell-based” architecture is an approach that can be applied to current or desired development and technologies to address these issues. This technology-neutral approach helps cloud-native dev teams become more efficient, act in a more self-organized manner, and speed overall release times.
In this talk, Asanka will introduce the "cell-based" architecture, which is decentralized, API-centric, cloud-native and microservices friendly. He will explain the role of APIs in the cell-based approach, as well as examine how real applications are built as cells. Asanka will explore the metrics and approaches that can be used to measure the effectiveness of the architecture and explore how organizations can implement the cell approach.
Building an Integrated Supply Chain for APIs
APIs are the products of the 21st century. As we build out API systems, we find that we are constantly learning from product journeys. We propose a new kind of supply chain - the Integrated Supply Chain for APIs (ISCA) - which is needed by any organization looking to create and monetize API products, either directly or indirectly. In this session, Asanka will outline our vision of the ISCA, identify five key patterns for success, and give a blueprint for creating a digital business based on API products.
A Decentralized Reference Architecture for Cloud-native Applications V2.0
This document summarizes Asanka Abeysinghe's career and introduces the concept of cell-based architecture. It discusses the motivation for a new decentralized architecture pattern and describes cell-based architecture, where cells are self-contained units of enterprise architecture that contain components and communicate with each other. The key aspects are that it is decentralized, microservices-based, cloud-native, technology neutral, and human-centric.
2013 10-wso2 con-tut-t3-1330-asanka-chintana
This document provides an overview of reference architectures for several enterprise architecture patterns including gateway, facade, web oriented architecture (WOA), event driven architecture (EDA), master data management (MDM), and entitlement when taking a service-oriented architecture (SOA) approach. It describes each pattern's problem domain, provides a vendor-neutral reference architecture, and maps the patterns to specific products within the WSO2 platform.
The Role of Integration in Microservice Architecture (MSA)
Integration was treated as old-school technology when microservice architecture (MSA) was introduced. However, when theory became practice, the technologist who designed and implemented MSA identified the important role integration plays in this modern architecture paradigm. An architecture layer that connects many microservices and builds composite services, requests dispatching and service routing, connects microservices with legacy services and cloud providers are among common integration use cases across most enterprises.
During this session, Asanka will discuss how integration fits into MSA and technologies that can be used to implement integration microservices.
Cell-based Architecture: OReilly Software Architecture Conference NY 2019

APIs: The DNA of Digital Transformation
Asanka Abeysinghe discusses how APIs are the foundation for digital transformation. He explains that APIs allow for real-time personalized experiences across applications, platforms, and networks. A top-down approach to API design defines the user experience first and then identifies the necessary APIs and services. This modular approach to APIs allows for reuse, integration, and iterative development. When done right, APIs can act as the connective tissue across people, applications, platforms, and networks, fueling digital experiences and powering today's connected world.
Iterative Architecture: A Pragmatic Approach to Digital Transformation
This document discusses an iterative architecture approach for digital transformation. It advocates for an iterative process of planning, building, testing, and repeating to develop solutions. This approach establishes both a platform team and individual project teams to work on the platform and projects in parallel using an iterative methodology. The iterative architecture enables organizations to build solutions incrementally using an open technology stack while continuously engaging stakeholders for feedback to guide further development.
Building a Future-ready Bank
The document discusses building a future-ready bank by focusing on delivering excellent customer experiences through digital technologies and platforms. It emphasizes establishing an agile, decentralized organizational structure and adopting cloud-native and API-first approaches to drive innovation. The document also promotes open source technologies and partnerships to help banks modernize and keep up with changing customer expectations in the experience economy.

IoT Business Opportunity & Disruption
Asanka will begin the presentation by discussing the opportunities for businesses to increase customer satisfaction, open new business models, and generate additive revenue streams by integrating IoT functionality into enterprise systems. He then will explore how employing IoT channels, such as devices, sensors and actuators, can be used to enhance users’ digital experiences and enable more data access points that link with their day-to-day lives. Next Asanka will examine how an IoT architecture facilitates the ability a digital enterprise to use real-time and predictive analytics to gain meaningful insights from IoT-driven data. He will conclude by presenting a vendor-neutral IoT reference architecture that can serve as a roadmap for enterprises implementing an IoT strategy. Throughout the discussion, Asanka
will provide real-world examples of enterprise IoT implementations and how they are being used to create new business avenues.
Building a Digital Enterprise: Learning from Experience
Digital transformation, digital enterprise, and connected business – what does this all mean for each industry vertical? How does one innovate in critical strategies? What does the reference architecture look like for a small, medium, or larger enterprise? How does an organization implement such an architecture? As an avid technology partner, WSO2 has helped many organizations in their journey to build the right digital enterprise capabilities that create better customer and internal user experiences. This session will answer the above questions and share our own experiences from successful projects.

Building a Digital Enterprise: Learning from Experience
Digital transformation, digital enterprise, and connected business – what does this all mean for each industry vertical? How does one innovate in critical strategies? What does the reference architecture look like for a small, medium, or larger enterprise? How does an organization implement such an architecture? As an avid technology partner, WSO2 has helped many organizations in their journey to build the right digital enterprise capabilities that create better customer and internal user experiences. This session will answer the above questions and share our own experiences from successful projects.
Platform for Digital Transformation
A platform is a long-term investment that supports a community by providing shared resources to attract and retain members over time. An organization needs a digital platform to address business demands, rapid changes, and quick release cycles while providing middleware services. The platform should be introduced with onboarding programs and evangelized internally. It is built by developing foundational reusable services and APIs and ensuring seamless integration across common enterprise architecture practices.
APIs as your digital connector
This document discusses how APIs can act as digital connectors for enterprises. It notes that business is often shortsighted in prioritizing quick wins over future-proof solutions. The document advocates for an agile, iterative approach focused on the consumer where APIs are designed at every layer from frontend to backend. It outlines how microservices architectures and RESTful APIs have become the standard for building flexible systems and encouraging innovation. The key is providing documentation, samples and support to help developers adopt the new API-led approaches.
Roadmap to a Connected Business
Success of a Connected Business depends on robust architecture that will reuse the existing IT assets and fill the gaps by introducing required architecture layers. Having a iterative approach with a milestone plan helps to overcome the technical and non-technical challenges businesses face during implementation. Middleware and Next-Gen Middleware are the raw materials to build an integrated, secured, monitored and governed Connected Business.
A Microservices Reference Architecture
A highly opinionated, strawman reference architecture for success with Microservices.
Presented at the fifth Sydney Microservices Meetup on Feb 18th 2015.
Pragmatic approach to Microservice Architecture: Role of Middleware
Microservice Architecture (MSA) is emerging as a popular architecture pattern in today’s agile enterprise. Its iterative architecture and development methodologies are particularly attracting the interest of architects who need continuous delivery to fulfil business needs.
But, is every characteristics of MSA new or even pragmatic? Asanka Abeysinghe, vice president of solutions architecture at WSO2, will provide insights into MSA requirements from real-world examples and provide details of an architect friendly pragmatic approach for this architecture pattern.
Middleware plays a key role in successful MSA-based implementations. Using the correct middleware capabilities enable enterprises to fully leverage advantages provided by MSA, and ensures ease of implementation and faster time to market.
Asanka will explain essential middleware capabilities required to resolve the MSA puzzle, where you can also utilize supportive technologies such as Continuous Integration (CI), containerization and Container as a Service (CaaS).
Architecting the Digital Enterprise
Today, consumer experience has advanced leaps and bounds because of modern technology and people’s lifestyles. With the advent of social communication, mobile devices and a multitude of easily available and accessible apps, consumers today expect highly flexible, user-friendly, quick and agile services from enterprises. Enterprises need to meet these high expectations if they are to remain competitive. More importantly, they should also revisit their technology to see whether they are better equipped to provide such services.
Putting together a new enterprise architecture is hard. Dissecting an existing enterprise architecture and putting it back together with the necessary parts is even harder. The objective of this workshop is to identify the main pillars that are needed to build such an enterprise architecture. It will also explore how WSO2 can help you do so.

from shadow IT to empowered IT-asanka 2014 08-gartner catalyst
Project teams often use shadow IT, instead of the more slower moving traditional IT, to facilitate rapidly changing complex business requirements and quick release cycles. As a result an unmanaged, ungoverned set of IT solutions reside in enterprises without ownership. The risks of shadow IT keeps the CIO awake at night: business continuity to data protection to unmanaged costs are just a few of these risks. At the same time, the smart CIO knows not to wage war against shadow IT because that’s what keeps the business innovating rapidly.
In this session Asanka Abeysinghe, VP of Solutions Architecture at WSO2, will present how enterprises can leverage cloud enabled ALM frameworks to build managed and governed empowered IT. Topics to be discussed include, managing quick release cycles, template driven rapid development, empowering developers to develop, test and release apps in a governed secured manner, and providing internal business capabilities as APIs for application development. In addition Asanka will explain how innovative WSO2 clients are already gaining startup speed, reducing project risk, and enabling new business models by adopting WSO2 DevOps PaaS solutions

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
