Abstract: Governance has not been enforced or followed in enterprises due to lack of skills or no clear understanding on how use cases can be applied across various technology paradigms. Customers want governance to be implemented in their enterprise but lack awareness. In this presentation we will focus on how IIB and Data Power can be aligned with WSRR for various governance use cases. We will primarily focus on IIB/WSRR Integration capabilities and similar approaches will be followed for Data Power/WSRR Integration capabilities. This will give a solid start on how governance capabilities of WSRR can be leveraged for ESBs.
Smarter Integration Using the IBM SOA Foundation Stack: Best Practices and Le...Prolifics
Abstract: Enterprise integration can be challenging given the number of products, teams and technology frameworks involved. At the same time, most organizations require their applications to seamlessly communicate with each other, internally and externally. Our experience as field practitioners have enabled us to see these challenges up close and after fighting many battles to successfully implement integrated solutions, we want to share the best practices and lessons learned. We will be discussing IBM products such as DataPower, Integration Bus, BPM, WSRR and SmartCloud APM; however, many of these best practices are product and technology agnostic. We will be looking at what it takes from an organizational, personal and architecture perspective.

Animesh Jain, Prolifics
Almost all organizations today have embraced the concept of SOA and is aligned to the path of application agility. Bottlenecks can come in the form of legacy applications where the endpoint of the service provider is stored either in a constant or in a property file. This restricts the ability to change both at the service provider and consumer end. Applications integrated with WSRR have the ability to select the endpoints based on policy. Not only are they immune to constructive changes at the service provider, but this also eases the overall governance process. In this session, we will focus on: pattern to integrate WSRR with legacy java applications based on Spring framework, different scenarios in which it should be use, deep dive into the development and maintenance aspect, and extending this pattern to make it framework independent.

10 Steps to Simplify and Improve Service-Oriented Architecture GovernancePerficient, Inc.
Even after engaging in years of SOA efforts, many companies still suffer from SOA governance problems including funding issues, process inefficiencies, and operational problems.
Too many companies look to software to solve their SOA governance issues when SOA governance is more about people and process than technology.
Join Perficient to examine the 10 steps to improved SOA governance:
1. Align SOA projects with business goals
2. Develop a collaborative organization for SOA governance
3. Define organizational roles and responsibilities
4. Establish the SOA lifecycle process and policies
5. Adjust your software development lifecycle for SOA
6. Define SOA foundational standards
7. Define run-time processes
8. Determine the role of technology in your governance processes
9. Establish SOA measurements and monitoring techniques
10. Evolve and improve SOA governance over time
We will also take a pragmatic look at SOA governance to help you:
• Understand SOA Governance best practices
• Identify gaps in your SOA Governance processes
• Define next steps to improve SOA Governance
It is difficult to overstate the importance of governance to SOA initiatives, whether in the context of service governance (i.e. governing the lifecycle of services from creation through deployment) or the broader issues of IT governance (commonly defined as specifying the decision rights and accountability framework to encourage desirable behavior in the use of IT). This session presents a holistic discussion of governance with SOA. It outlines the key policies that organizations should consider with regards to finance, portfolios, operations, architecture, technology, projects and people. It will also outline six successful steps to governance with SOA, as part of the decisions, processes and policies that contribute to successful business and SOA objectives. The presenters will address, how as part of the execution of an SOA strategy, organizations should put together a SOA Roadmap. Also discussed is how organizations need to govern the execution of the SOA Roadmap to ensure delivery of all SOA and business objectives.

Architecting and Tuning IIB/eXtreme Scale for Maximum Performance and Reliabi...Prolifics
Abstract: Recent projects have stressed the "need for speed" while handling large amounts of data, with near zero downtime. An analysis of multiple environments has identified optimizations and architectures that improve both performance and reliability. The session covers data gathering and analysis, discussing everything from the network (multiple NICs, nearby catalogs, high speed Ethernet), to the latest features of extreme scale. Performance analysis helps pinpoint where time is spent (bottlenecks) and we discuss optimization techniques (MQ tuning, IIB performance best practices) as well as helpful IBM support pacs. Log Analysis pinpoints system stress points (e.g. CPU starvation) and steps on the path to near zero downtime.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Governance, IT Governance , SOA Governance?
SOA
Governance
IT Governance
Governance
Governance means establishing and
enforcing people with chains of responsibilities to
achieve organizational goals
IT Governance is an extension of
governance – Application of governance to IT
organization by establishing mechanisms and
policies used to measure and control the way IT
decisions are made and carried out
SOA Governance is an
extension/specialization of IT governance
focused on the lifecycle of services components,
services and business processes to ensure
the business value of SOA
SOA Governance is key
for running overall IT
Governance
7. CONNECT WITH US:
More on SOA Governance
SOA governance does not design the services, but provide guidance for
the development and management of reusable services.
Service Governance determines who should
Define
Use
Monitor
Authorize changes to existing services
> SOA Governance establishes the agreements between the providers of
services and the consumers of those services that tell the consumers
what they can expect and the providers what they are obligated to
provide.
> Governance is a “political” problem, not a technological or a business
problem.

IIB Nodes
• The EndpointLookup node can
retrieve a service endpoint for a
WSDL service from WebSphere
Service Registry and Repository.
• The RegistryLookup node can
retrieve any artifact stored in
WebSphere Service Registry and
Repository, for example, WSDL,
XSD, XSLT, WS-policy
documents.

IIB Integration with WSRR - Usage
Patterns
When Destination is a SOAP/HTTP Web Service
• Use Endpoint Lookup node to retrieve endpoint
address from
WSRR
– Set “Match Policy” = “One”
• Use any Input Node (MQ, HTTP, JMS etc.)
• Wire Endpoint Lookup output directly to
SOAP/HTTP Request
node
Service Proxy (SOAP/HTTP)
20
21. CONNECT WITH US:
IIB Integration with WSRR - Usage
Patterns
Service Selection
For example, choosing between premium and standard service
• Use Endpoint Lookup node to retrieve a set of endpoints
– Set “Match Policy” = “All”
• Use a transformation node to
– Select the required service
– Copy the endpoint information into the correct place for the SOAP
Request node
Alternatively, branch earlier in the message flow and use two
Endpoint Lookup nodes
21
22. CONNECT WITH US:
IIB Integration with WSRR - Usage
Patterns
SLA Checking (Registry Look Node)
Use Registry Lookup node to retrieve metadata for service consumer:
Specify a “User Property” with name “gep63_consumerIdentifier” and the
specified “consumer id” as the value
Set “Depth Policy” = “Return matched plus all related entities”
Use a transformation node to:
Check that only a single service version was returned
Check that the service version has an active SLA with the specified “context id”
Check that the target service has at least one online endpoint
Forward the request to the target service if all of the above checks pass, or
return a SOAP fault
