Microservices have recently attracted a lot of attention for being the architecture of choice for companies like Uber, Netflix, Spotify, and Amazon. Undoubtedly, this architectural approach has distinct impacts across the SDLC. Many of the core benefits associated with the adoption of microservices actually introduce significant quality challenges. For example:
An increased number of dependencies
Parallel development roadblocks
Impacts to the traditional methods of testing
More potential points of failure
Servidores de Aplicação: por que ainda precisamos deles?Bruno Borges
The document discusses application servers and why they are still needed. It notes that while microservices are popular, application servers provide capabilities like centralized management, load balancing, clustering, and security that are still valuable for enterprise applications. It also argues that application servers are improving with features like dynamic clustering, whole server migration, and adapting to memory pressure, and that they can still effectively manage resources and provide isolation for complex, distributed Java applications.
This whitepaper discusses how a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) approach can help build interoperability, agility, and flexibility in mission critical systems like Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) systems. SOA involves exposing independent application functions as reusable services that can be combined to create composite applications. This loose coupling allows systems to evolve incrementally. The paper provides an example of an SOA-based work order processing system that leverages existing applications from different vendors to create a centralized business process. Benefits of the SOA approach include effective reuse of enterprise components, increased interoperability, data standardization, and the flexibility to modify business processes over time.

A Novel Robust &Fault Tolerance Framework for Webservices using ws-I Specific...Abhishek Kumar
This document proposes a novel robust and fault tolerance framework for web services using the WS-I specification. It discusses related work on fault tolerance in distributed systems and web services. The proposed framework takes advantage of existing web service architecture and standards, incorporating two new components: a Controller for fault detection, notification and confinement; and an Agent for maintaining service replicas to improve quality of service and availability in the presence of faults.
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's Java and Java EE strategy provides a rock-solid foundation for enterprise applications through consolidation on WebLogic Server and Oracle Fusion Middleware.

The Briefing Room with Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor and SOA
Live Webcast on May 6, 2014
Watch the archive:
Today’s enterprise relies on a host of services and applications to keep business running like a well-oiled machine. The guiding principles behind the service-oriented architecture (SOA) are supposed to ensure a smooth transition between services, but the motley assortment of applications is leaving some organizations over-burdened with complexity and latency. With the increasingly distributed and data-driven information environment, is it time to consider a new approach?
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to learn from veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor as he explains the hopes and dreams of SOA, and why they were never fully achieved. He’ll be briefed by Jason Bloomberg of EnterpriseWeb who will tout his company’s multi-faceted platform, a solution designed to drive agile and flexible business operations and applications. He will demonstrate how EnterpriseWeb circumvents the limitations of SOA and delivers a data-centric environment that dynamically responds to change in real time.

The Mobile Enterprise in Action: Managing Business Processes from Your Mobile...Steven Davelaar
This presestation features a comprehensive integrated demo that uses Oracle Business Process Management (BPM), Oracle Service Bus (OSB), Mobile Application Framework (MAF) and Webcenter Content Management (WCM). The demo centers around a BPM claim handling process that is entirely managed through the mobile device, allowing the mobile user to work in offline mode and sync his work later. OSB is used to virtualize all service calls from the mobile application and to transform the BPM SOAP web services into REST-JSON format for easy and performant mobile consumption. WCM is used to store the claim attachments. The experience gained from building this and other demo's is translated to a set of guidelines for going mobile, also included in this presentation
This document provides guidance on best practices for testing Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) solutions. It discusses that more testing effort is needed at the service level rather than the system level. Security testing needs to span the entire project lifecycle. The SOA test team requires an understanding of both the technical architecture and business domains. The testing approach also demands the appropriate use of tools. The document outlines a comprehensive SOA test methodology covering various phases from unit to system level testing and types of testing including functional, performance, security and more. It provides recommendations on tools and discusses how to implement an effective regression strategy.
This presentation is an overview of a new and comprehensive enterprise integration practice based upon SOA... Services Oriented Integration extends SOA to cover what's necessary to ensure SOA actually works.
Consistently delivering and maintaining well performing applications doesn't just happen, it requires a solid architecture, sound development, continual attention, diligence and expertise. It also requires appropriate testing, not simply of release-candidate builds, but of designs, units, integrations, and physical components... both during development and in production. The question is, how can a team accomplish all of that under all of today's pressure to deliver quickly and cheaply?
Join Scott Barber for this Keynote Address to hear about what successful organizations are doing to consistently deliver well performing applications, to learn the underlying principles and practices that enable those organizations to create, test, and maintain those well performing applications without breaking either the budget or the schedule, and what the key items are that virtually every team can implement right away, to dramatically improve the consistency and overall performance of their applications.
Testing Missions in Context From Checking to AssessmentScott Barber
Sometimes we test to find bugs.
Sometimes we test to comply with regulations.
Sometimes we test to answer a question for someone.
Sometimes we test because its what was done before.
Sometimes we’re not even sure what we are testing for, only that someone is paying us to “just test it”.
Whether or not someone has told us why we are testing, or what we are testing for, if we are being paid (or otherwise compensated) for testing, there is a reason that someone is willing to pay for that testing to be done. That reason is (or should be) our testing mission.
During this keynote, Scott Barber explores some of the most commonly assigned or assumed testing missions, shares his thoughts on contexts in which these missions may or many not be particularly valuable and, publicly for the first time, discusses a software product assessment model that he believes has the potential to dramatically improve the alignment of our assigned or assumed testing missions with the wants and needs of the businesses paying us to conduct that testing.

When most people think of performance testing, they think about the hard parts – the very hard parts. They think about the expensive and complicated tools that are required to simulate the activity of thousands of end-users all at the same time, while collecting tens or hundreds of thousands of measurements.
In reality, many performance issues can be detected and diagnosed with exactly the tools and knowledge you already have at your disposal using information obtained from quick, easy and cheap performance tests. In fact, much of the performance related information that stakeholders need to make good decisions and development teams need to dramatically improve system performance is easily obtainable by the performance-testing layman. The trick is knowing what performance tests to apply when, and how much time/effort is worth investing based on the business importance of performance — in other words, context!
In this hands-on tutorial (bring your laptop or risk reduced value and intermittent boredom), Scott Barber will introduce you to several techniques that the performance testing layperson can use to speed up and simplify the collection of valuable performance-related information; many of which you can use during the tutorial to test your current website if it’s accessible from the classroom. You’ll also receive an introduction to the ‘rocket science’ side of performance testing along with some things that you can do to make life easier for your resident ‘performance testing rocket scientist’.
The document discusses performance testing for managers. It outlines that performance testing is often misunderstood by managers and executives. It emphasizes that managers do not need technical details, but should understand the value and goals of performance testing. The document then covers people, tools, process, and results as they relate to effective performance testing project management.
A presentation that provides an overview of software testing approaches including "schools" of software testing and a variety of testing techniques and practices.
The document discusses test automation approaches for internet-based applications on embedded devices. It describes five basic approaches: unit testing in an IDE, manual testing on actual devices, external test automation, testing against simulators or emulators, and back-end testing via the internet. Each approach is outlined with pros and cons. Case studies are presented on testing the Blackberry, ESPN Mobile, and Microsoft IPTV solutions. The document was presented at a conference on quality assurance and testing for embedded systems.
Introducing the Captain of your Special Teams... The Performance Test LeadScott Barber
The document discusses using the concept of "special teams" from American football to improve software development teams. It suggests designating specialists like performance testers as the captain of the special teams to encourage collaboration. As special teams captain, specialists could make big impacts and not be micro-managed by development or test managers. This would help minimize conflicts and demonstrate trust that improves specialist effectiveness.
This document discusses improving software testing practices. It notes that testing is often seen as undervalued but does not provide as much value as it could. The document suggests that testing should focus on delivering business value and reducing risk. It also recommends that testers gain a better understanding of business goals and risks. Effective risk management requires managing knowledge, and testing practices should aim to reduce uncertainty about new technologies' future impacts through a continuous learning process.
Performance Testing on Agile Development TeamsScott Barber
The document discusses integrating performance testing into agile development lifecycles. It notes that performance testing and agile development both involve repeating cycles of planning, testing, and improving. However, bringing the two together can be complicated due to unknowns and variable notions of acceptance. The document provides keys to success, including involving management and developers, making performance part of user story acceptance, and involving performance testers throughout the development cycle.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on BlockchainClaudio Di Ciccio
Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus.
Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.
