The document discusses the integration of mobile technology with Business Process Management (BPM) and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), highlighting the evolution from traditional applications to mobile and hybrid apps. It covers mobile development trends, integration technologies like SOAP and REST, and the shift towards data-driven applications and NoSQL databases to enhance scalability and performance. Additionally, it emphasizes Oracle's mobile solutions and products designed to support these architectural changes for businesses.

2. Mobile Development
What does this mean today?
An architectural point of view

3. We need an iPhone App!
2008

6. Cloud-Services become more
and more important

15. The Web: Cross-Plattform
Write Once, run everywhere

16. HTML5 is the evolution of web development

28. Mobile Alarm / Monitoring

29. Warning:
Avoid the Many-cheap-Apps-Architecture-Maintenance-Hell

30. Mobile Integration Technologies
SOAP
REST
• Has a reputation for being
complex and heavyweight
• Has a formal contract
language to define message
formats
• Supports standardized
security approaches and
tools
• Supports XML and Binary
• Has a reputation for being
simple and lightweight
• No formal contract
language to define message
formats
• Security is a major
challenge due to lack of
standardization
• Supports multiple data
types (JSON, Text, XML,
Binary)

31. Mobile Integration Patterns
SOAP Style
34
REST Style

32. REST API Schema
Aktion
Typ
URI Schema
customerByUsername
GET
/api/customers?username=fred
rentalsByCustomerId
GET
/api/rentals?customerId=7
carTypes
GET
/api/cartypes
cities
GET
/api/cities
availableCars
GET
/api/availableCars?cityId=1
&startDate=2011-10-28-…
&endDate=2011-10-30-…
&maxPrice=90
rentCar
POST
/rental/
Body: {carId=...,startDate=...,endDate=...}
Date format: "yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss.SSSZ"

33. Mobile Integration Technologies
XML
• “Native” format for
enterprise data exchange
• Highly formal structure
• Content CAN be validated
• Formats can change only
when all parties agree
• Supports multiple data
types (Text, Binary)
JSON
• “Native” format for web
pages
• No formal structure
• Content cannot be
validated
• Easy to change
• Text only

34. Mobile Integration Patterns
REST: URI addressing and data representation
37

35. JSON as exchange format for data
Request:
$ curl --user fred:pass http://localhost:8484/...
.../rylc-html5/backend/api/customers?username=fred
Response:
{
"city":"Steintal",
"email":"fred@die-feuersteins.de",
"enabled":true,
"id":1,
"name":"Fred Feuerstein",
...
}

36. The Web is evolving…
old
new
Documents
Declarative HTML
Templates
Request/Response
Thin Client
Applications
Programmatic DOM
APIs
Synchronization
Thick Client

37. Digital Natives

43. Data Driven Applications as new
breed
“It’s about using data to make our customer touch points more engaging,
more interactive, more data-driven.”

44. Central vs. Application Databases
• Central Database
• Application Database
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Using SQL as the integration mechanism
between applications
applications store data in common DB
Improves communication, all
applications operate on consistent set of
data
Structure ends up to be more complex
Changes need to be coordinated with all
other applications using the database
Side-effects (i.e. adding database index)
Application 1
Application 2
DB
Application 3
•
•
•
•
Only accessed by a single application
Only the application using the database
needs to know about the structure
Easier to maintain and evolve the schema
More freedom to choose the database
Applicable to SOA (i.e. Data Service/Entity
Service) with good Service Autonomy
Ready for the cloud
Application 1
Application 2
Application 3
DB
DB
DB
48

45. Relational vs. Aggregate Data Models
• The relational model takes the
information and divides it into
tuples (rows)
• A tuple is a limited data structure
– no nesting of tuples
– no list of values
• Aggregate is a term that comes
from Domain-Driven Design (Evans)
• An aggregate is a collection of
related objects, that should be
treated as a unit
– Unit for data manipulation and
management of consistency
49

46. NoSQL Databases
Big Data frameworks are often associated with the term NoSQL
•
•
•
•
•
•
Not only SQL
The power of SQL is not needed for all problems
Specialized solutions may be faster or more scalable
Bring the ability to handle semi-structured and unstructured data
NoSQL complements RDBMS
Different types of NoSQL today:
•
Key-value, Column-Family, Document, Graph
Big Data frameworks and NoSQL are related but not necessarily
the same
• Some big data problems may be solved relationally

47. Polyglot Persistence
Defines a hybrid approach to persistence
•
•
Using multiple data storage technologies
Selected based on the way the data is used by an application
Decisions
•
•
Have to decide what data storage technology to use (Relational or NoSQL)
Today it‘s easier to go with relational
New Data Access APIs
•
Service-Oriented Polygot Persistence Model
Each data store has its
own mechanisms for
accessing the data
Solution
•
Wrap data access
code into services (Data/
Entity Service) exposed to
applications
E-commerce Application
Shopping cart data
Key-Value
Shopping Cart
Service
