The Enterprise Environment

ƒ Software AG recognizes key challenges faced by today’s


enterprises:
– The need to Integrate applications and partners essential to the
company’s
’ business
b i (ESB)
– The need to deliver agility and lower maintenance costs by exploiting
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)
– The need to streamline and improve business processes through
Business Process Management (BPM)
ƒ To address these challenges, the Software AG webMethods suite
7.1 is designed to facilitate and deliver the convergence of ESB,
BPM, and SOA – all monitored by a unified Business Activity
Monitoring (BAM) environment!

Page 53
Web Service Descriptor

ƒ Web service descriptor (WSD) defines a Web service in IS terms


– Two basic types of web service descriptor
ƒ Provider WSD defines a web service for external consumers
ƒ Consumer WSD defines an external web service and is used to
create a web service connector (WSC) for each operation in the
web service
ƒ A WSC is like any other IS flow service
– when a connector is invoked it calls a specific operation of a Web
service
i

Page 54
Creating Web Service Descriptors

ƒ Provider Web Service Descriptors


– Created from one or more IS services or a WSDL document.
– Developer uses the provider Web service descriptor to publish these
IS services to a UDDI registry as a single Web service.
– External users (requesters or consumers of the service) can then find
the Web service on the registry and invoke the IS services remotely
ƒ Consumer Web Service Descriptors
– Created from a Web Service (published to a registry) or from a WSDL
document
– Developer uses the consumer Web Service Descriptor to invoke and
use a remote Web Service similar to other IS Services

Page 55
Operations

ƒ Each operation contains a single request and response


ƒ Each request and response contains a single, read-only body element
and one or more header elements
ƒ A response can also contain fault elements
ƒ Add one to many operation(s) to a provider WSD
ƒ Consumer
C WSD is
i ddefined
fi d bby th

Page 56
Binders

ƒ A binder is a collection of related definitions and specifications for


a particular port
ƒ The binder is a container for the endpoint address, WSDL binding
element,
l transport protocol,l and
d communication protocoll
ƒ Developer creates at least one binder when it generates the Web
service descriptor based on the data in the WSDL or service
ƒ New binder definitions can be added to a provider Web Service
Descriptor created from an IS service
ƒ New binders can *not* be added to a consumer or provider Web
Service Descriptor created from a WSDL URL or a UDDI Registry
ƒ Separate binders can be defined for endpoint address and protocol

Securing Web Service Providers and Consumers

1. The Web service


consumer constructs
an outbound request
and sends it to a Web
service provider

2. The provider receives


the inbound request

3. The provider
constructs an
outbound response
and sends it back to
the consumer

4. The consumer
receives the inbound
response from the
provider

– Optionally define a private thread pool per port
Page 72
Upgraded SOAP Stack

ƒ New SOAP processor


– SOAP 1.1 and 1.2
– Custom SOAP faults supported (inbound and outbound)
– Custom SOAP headers supported

Page 73
SOAP Processor

ƒ The SOAP processor is a service that acts upon SOAP messages


ƒ Integration Server receives a SOAP message, it invokes the SOAP
processor based on the process directive specified in the URL
requesteddbby the
h client
l
ƒ The SOAP processor routes messages to services based on a
qualified name (QName).
ƒ If the SOAP message includes an HTTP header, the QName is
derived from the SOAPAction (SOAP 1.1) or ActionHTTP (SOAP 1.2)
ƒ If the SOAP message does not include an HTTP header
header, the QName
is derived from the first element in the SOAP body.

Page 75
Web Services Fault Handling

ƒ The SOAP specification defines one body element named Fault


ƒ Recipient must return the Fault element if it cannot process a
SOAP message successfully
ƒ Integration Server can add a document to the fault message

Page 76
Web Services Header Handling

ƒ SOAP message can include an optional header component to store


additional information
– Example: Routing invoices through one or more approval steps before
passing
i it to
t an accounts-payable

5 Derived names usage
5.

ƒ Derived names are extremely useful in uniquely identifying rule


instances.
– If the derived name field is left empty, all instances will use the
d f lt rule
default l name
– Causes confusion when there is more than one instance
ƒ Variables can be used to make the derived name distinctive. The
syntax for using variables in derived names is:
– $DimensionName.AttributeName
– where DimensionName is the first in a KPI hierarchy pair
pair, and
AttributeName is the second in the pair.
ƒ Multiple pairs can be used, each separated by a space or other
character
character.

Page 152
Variables in derived names

ƒ The actual variables that can be used in a derived name depend


on the KPI evaluated by the rule.
ƒ To determine what variables you can use, do the following:
– Locate the KPI evaluated by the rule in the System Data or Business
Data page.
– Identifyy the KPI Hierarchyy associated with this KPI,, and locate the
hierarchy on the KPI Hierarchies page.
– Open the hierarchy, make a note of any pairs you might want to use
in the derived name, and enter those pairs following the syntax
described below in the Derived Name field on the Edit Rule page.

Example: Memory allocated to $AnalyticEngine.LogicalServerName

ƒ Optionally, permissions can also be granted within an asset at a
profile level.
ƒ Permissions granted at a profile level effectively override
permissions at the asset level
ƒ If permissions have not been explicitly specified for a profile,
profile it
simply assumes the permission definition of the asset.
ƒ The Permissions profile will allow a user to have specific
permissions.

– Within WebService1, John D is granted edit permission on the
‘Technical
Technical Support
Support’ profile.
profile
– Within WebService1, John D has no permissions for the ‘Development
Costs’ profile.
– Effectively, John D can view WebService1. Within WebService1, John
D can view all profiles except ‘Development Costs’. John D can only
edit ‘Technical Support’ profile.
ƒ Scenario 2
– User Bob has view permission on ‘Technical Support’ profile for
StockQuoteService, but does not have view permission on ‘Technical

Changes to Cross-Org
Cross Org Permissions

ƒ No one (not even a POA or a Super Admin) can create a group that
contains users outside of their organization.
– In 6.6, anyone with Super Admin privileges could create a group that
contained
t i d users ffrom any org on th
the server.
ƒ When you grant permissions to an object, you can select:
– anyy individual user from yyour own organization
g or
– any group that is defined on the server
– Since you can’t create a group that contains users from different
organizations, you ask the administrator of the other organization to
create the group for you.
– Letting the requestor set up the group retains flexibility and control
within the Consumer Org g and avoid creating
g bottle-necks.
