SOA is now a mainstream computing discipline, with accelerating adoption among organizations of all types and sizes. Increased ROI, enhanced organizational agility, and reduced IT burdens are all driving justifications for the significant investments needed to undertake these initiatives. Yet, despite the growing number of SOA implementations, field-proven best practices and use cases are only now emerging. In "Next Generation SOA," Thomas Erl helps you use them to maximize the business value of "your" SOA investments. Erl, a top-selling IT author and SOA expert, has written the ideal SOA introduction for "today's" IT professionals. This practical, use-case-driven guide distills the real-world practice of building successful service-oriented software systems. Accessible and jargon-free, it answers crucial questions IT professionals ask about SOA today -- and the questions they "need" to ask about crucial issues such as integration, security, and governance. Coverage includes: What exactly is loose coupling, and why does it matter? What is an ESB, and why do I need one? What are the worst SOA design errors, why do people keep making them, and how can I avoid them? How do I implement SOA to address projects of all sizes? How do I categorize services and define their requirements? What crucial lessons have been learned about securing services in SOA environments?

Czasy, kiedy użytkownicy otrzymywali zamknięte produkty, zapakowane w pudełko z nośnikiem i instrukcją, przemijają. Świat IT zmierza w kierunku SOA (ang. Service-Oriented Architecture). Producenci chcą nam sprzedawać wiele usług, które potrafią komunikować się między sobą i dostarczać użytkownikom wymierne korzyści. To podejście pozwala lepiej zarządzać procesem wytwarzania usługi, łatwiej wprowadzać zmiany i aktualizacje oraz elastyczniej rozliczać się z klientami. Od tej drogi nie ma już odwrotu - SOA to przyszłość branży IT! Ta książka to świetne źródło informacji na ten temat. W trakcie lektury poznasz podstawy i założenia tej architektury oraz dowiesz się, jakie narzędzia wykorzystać, żeby wytworzyć produkt spełniający zasady SOA. Książka ta jest bogata w analizy przypadków oraz przykłady z życia, które pozwolą Ci przekonać się, jak bardzo architektura ukierunkowana na usługi jest przydatna przy rozwiązywaniu codziennych problemów. SOA jest tworem żywym, który cały czas ewoluuje - wymaga to kontroli organizacji oraz ustalenia pewnych standardów, czyli określenia, jak takie usługi mają wyglądać. W trakcie lektury dowiesz się, kto sprawuje nad tym pieczę oraz jakie są kierunki rozwoju SOA. Książka ta będzie biblią każdego projektanta i dewelopera usług sieciowych. Nie możesz minąć jej obojętnie!

This book describes cloud computing as a service that is "highly scalable" and operates in "a resilient environment". The authors emphasize architectural layers and models - but also business and security factors.

A comprehensive tutorial and reference for creating Web service contracts for service-oriented solutions.

A formal catalog that provides a pattern language for building service-oriented solutions through solving common design problems, this text offers expert guidance in the form of proven design patterns (and anti-patterns) to minimize the risk and maximize the potential of service delivery in support of SOA.

Dieses Buch erklärt umfassend und anschaulich die acht anerkannten Entwurfsprinzipien der serviceorientierten Architektur und ihre praktische Anwendung auf konkrete Projekte. Die klare und fundierte Darstellung, der wohl strukturierte Aufbau des Buchs und die praxisnahen Beispiele machen es zu einer unschätzbaren Referenz für Architekten, Designer und Entwickler von SOA-Lösungen gleichermaßen.

The bulk of the book covers design principles, with material on service contracts, service coupling, service abstraction, reusability, and service autonomy. Final chapters offer a comparison of service-orientation and object orientation, and look at supporting practices
