There are three key hurdles to enterprisewide SOA:
1. Lack of governance from the start of initiatives which can lead to project failures.
2. Choosing the wrong technologies which can derail even the best run SOA projects.
3. Resistance to federation which is the most natural approach to implementing SOA across an entire enterprise.
To overcome these hurdles, the document recommends focusing on governance from day one while avoiding too much governance initially, carefully selecting enabling technologies, and proactively adopting a federated approach to diffuse SOA benefits organization-wide.
Oracle recommends a shared services solution utilizing its SOA suite and other products to help companies achieve several key benefits:
1. Standardizing processes across global operations and consolidating infrastructure can reduce costs by 25-30% while improving service levels.
2. Implementing a single integrated platform allows for increased process efficiency, standardized reporting, and greater agility.
3. Oracle's pre-integrated products provide out-of-the-box functionality and have been certified to work with various Oracle applications and other third party systems.

3) Best practices for building services including ensuring the right granularity and managing costs through infrastructure investment and leverage.
The document discusses service oriented architecture (SOA) and its benefits for delivering business capabilities quickly and lowering costs. It outlines a three step roadmap to SOA: 1) exposing enterprise data as services, 2) creating portal applications using these services, and 3) orchestrating services into business processes. The document also describes the company's experience implementing SOA in two generations, initially focusing on infrastructure and then composite applications built from shared services.
The document discusses how service-oriented architecture (SOA) impacts IT infrastructure and introduces new considerations for performance, security, availability, service management, and virtualization. Key points include:
- SOA introduces new infrastructure components like XML gateways and introduces challenges for monitoring distributed applications and isolating performance bottlenecks.
- Security must be implemented across multiple layers to secure messages in SOA environments while propagating identities among partners.
- High availability, disaster recovery, and scalability require techniques like clustering, workload management, and data replication across SOA components.
- Service management requires monitoring all components and closing the loop between infrastructure events and business services.
- Virtualization can help decouple applications from infrastructure
This document discusses service-oriented architecture (SOA) in banking and outlines some key benefits and challenges. SOA can benefit banking by enabling customer information management across systems, multi-channel integration, operational excellence through business process automation, and intelligent inbound cross-selling. However, performance issues may arise with SOA implementations due to their distributed nature. To address this, the document emphasizes the importance of service level agreements, infrastructure capacity planning, SOA performance testing, and monitoring systems to ensure performance meets requirements.
As cloud services deployment matures in the enterprise, the emphasis has moved from deploying infrastructure as a service towards a model of delivering business services in a “SaaS-like” manner. How can organizations succeed in building hybrid technology models which effectively leverage AWS to deliver business services transparently to customers? In this presentation, we will discuss how use AWS and CSC to develop business services starting with hybrid IT, moving toward robust test and development strategies for enterprise applications, and finally providing a true “SaaS-like” experience for business users and customers alike.

This document discusses the benefits of a service-oriented architecture (SOA) for insurers. It notes that insurers are interested in SOA to help extend legacy systems, improve business processes, and make components reusable. The document outlines the evolution of SOA adoption in the insurance industry and some examples of tangible benefits realized, such as cost reductions and increased productivity. It also provides 15 rules of the road for successful SOA implementation, such as designing services around business functions and exposing each service through only one access point.
This document discusses best practices for migrating to a service-oriented architecture (SOA). It recommends embracing heterogeneity and complexity by abstracting across different software systems using standards like XML and web services. A successful SOA migration requires changing organizational structures and skills to focus on reusable services, incremental changes, and architectural best practices. Service contracts that separate interface from implementation are also key to enabling reuse and flexibility.
This article gives an overview of these components and the options available to an organisation for implementing SOA through OSS and Offshore outsourcing. The target audience are organisations whose core business is not IT.
Keynote-Service Orientation – Why is it good for your businessWSO2
Service orientation provides benefits for businesses by enabling them to move from brittle, hardwired application silos to shared, reusable business and infrastructure components. This eliminates application redundancy and complexity, enabling business agility, innovation and operational excellence. The document discusses service orientation at eBay, where over 300 services have been developed to organize the enterprise as reusable business functions and reduce costs of new features and applications. Challenges of service orientation include technical issues like latency and security as well as ensuring developer adoption and effective governance processes.
The document discusses Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). It defines SOA as an architecture that relies on loosely coupled services to support business processes and users. The key benefits of SOA include reusability, linking of resources, and ability to respond quickly to changing market conditions. The document outlines various SOA principles, elements, objectives and technologies used for implementation including web services. It also discusses challenges in adopting SOA such as managing service metadata and security.
SOA can provide benefits to banks such as increased agility, flexibility, and the ability to more easily make changes and additions to their systems. It allows banks to break down traditional silos and design systems around customer workflows. Wells Fargo has seen significant cost savings and productivity gains through the reuse of services across different parts of their business with SOA. Deutsche Bank also experiences reduced development time and higher quality services through reuse with SOA.
The document provides an overview of Software as a Service (SaaS) including:
- SaaS is a software delivery model that provides remote access to software via the web for a recurring fee, enabling users to access functionality hosted by the provider.
- SaaS is a subset of cloud computing where resources are provided as a service over the internet.
- Major benefits of SaaS include lower costs, quick access to updates, and reduced need for infrastructure management.

Threats to mobile devices are more prevalent and increasing in scope and complexity. Users of mobile devices desire to take full advantage of the features
available on those devices, but many of the features provide convenience and capability but sacrifice security. This best practices guide outlines steps the users can take to better protect personal devices and information.
Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

7. SOA hasn't been ordered by the doctor: You can live
without it.
SOA adoption should be justified by balancing (certain) costs and
(potential) benefits.
However, most organizations will be forced to SOA by their
packaged-application vendors.
Investigate the SOA strategy of your packaged-application
vendors and plan for a gradual adoption.
SOA services and applications will be multisourced. SaaS
and SOA go hand in hand.
If you're planning for SaaS, you need to plan for SOA as well
(and possibly vice versa).

SOA adoption?

10. Enterprisewide SOA is a long journey.
Plan for multiyear incremental implementation steps, but look for
short- and medium-term payback.
At each step, additional technology and organizational
capabilities must be put in place.
See "Toolkit: Planning for Service-Oriented Architecture With the
Gartner SOA Adoption Model," G00143726.
SOA success is a 50-50 business between technology and
governance (and good old management).
Bad technology choices can kill even the best-run SOA initiative.
Focus on governance from Day 1, but initially avoid "too much"
governance.
Bottom Line
How will organizations incrementally approach large-scale
SOA initiatives?
11. The Seven Golden Rules
for the Perfect First SOA Project
1. Set Goals and Collect Business-IT Requirements
2. Segregation of Duties
Application design teams:
• Service consumers
• Service implementations
Infrastructure Design Team (the future SOA COE)
3. Joint Design/Independent Implementations
Services jointly designed by application teams
Technically validated by the infrastructure team
4. Deliver Infrastructure (SOA Backplane) First
Design, implementation, testing
Validation against an agreed proof of concept
5. Deliver Services Before Consumer Applications
Plan for services to be available and tested before relevant consumers
6. Test, Test and Test Again
Plan for at least 25% of development effort on integration testing
7. Log, Log and Log Again
Multiple turn-on/off logs

18. Federated SOA Backplane
Topologies
Point-to-Point Uber-SOA Backplane Intermediary SOA
Backplane
Characteristics:
• SOA backplanes connect to each other
via point-to-point links.
• Each link can be implemented using
different protocols.
Pros:
• Simple to implement.
• Low cost.
Cons:
• Accountability/responsibility.
• Scalability.
Best when:
• Small number of SOA backplanes.
• Semiautonomous, peer domains.
Characteristics:
• One specific domain SOA backplane
also acts as a central "broker" linking all
the other backplanes.
Pros:
• Simple to implement.
• Well-defined responsibility.
Cons:
• Risk of uber-backplane overload.
• Security/privacy.
Best when:
• One large domain and multiple smaller
domains.
• Hierarchical company organization.
Characteristics:
• Each SOA backplane links into a
central, enterprisewide backplane
supporting only interbackplane
mediation (routing, transformation).
Pros:
• Well-defined responsibility.
• Noninvasiveness.
Cons:
• Higher costs.
• Single point of failure.
Best when:
• Large number of SOA backplanes.
• Semiautonomous, peer domains.
Exploitation
19. Coordinating Multiple SOA Centers of
Excellence
Virtual Hierarchical (Uber-COE) Mediator
Characteristics:
Each SOA COE is independent, but
there is a form of coordination to agree
on a common set of technologies,
standards and governance processes.
Pros:
• Technically noninvasive.
• Minimal organizational impact.
Cons:
• Vaguely defined responsibilities.
• Lowest common denominator
approach.
Best when:
• Small number of SOA COEs.
• Semiautonomous, peer domains.
Characteristics:
One domain SOA COE drives other COEs
through recommendations for standards,
technologies, products and governance
and by providing support.
Pros:
• Well-defined responsibilities/roles.
• Minimizes technical and governance
processes variations.
Cons:
• Risk of political resistance.
• Conflicting priorities for the uber-COE
Best when:
• One large domain and multiple small
domains.
• Hierarchical company organization.
Characteristics:
A dedicated Enterprise SOA COE
mediates between COEs by reconciling
standards and by providing an
interdomain SOA backplane.
Pros:
• Well-defined responsibilities/roles.
• Noninvasiveness.
Cons:
• Higher costs.
• Organizational complexity and inertia.
Best when:
• Several strong and established COEs.
• Semiautonomous, peer domains.

20. Even in SOA, "Well begun is half done."
Leverage the first project to lay down the foundation for the SOA
backplane, SOA governance and SOA center of excellence.
SOA doesn't happen by magic.
Use a sound combination of "stick" and "carrot" to achieve
alignment with SOA goals and principles.
Federation is the most-natural approach to systematic,
enterprisewide SOA.
Proactively adopt a federated approach to diffuse SOA benefits
across the entire enterprise.
Bottom Line
Which are the key hurdles on the way to enterprisewide SOA,
and how can organizations get over them?
