Oracle SOA Governance 11g Implementation

By: Luis Weir

Overview of this book

Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) is an architectural style created to address the challenges posed by today’s highly distributed, fast-paced computing. This goal is achieved by constructing business-focused software systems from loosely coupled, interoperable building blocks called Services. Organizations often fail to successfully implement SOA due to a lack of effective governance. Oracle SOA Governance is a comprehensive, service-orientated architecture governance solution that is designed to make the transition to SOA easier."Oracle SOA Governance 11g Implementation" illustrates how to successfully implement SOA governance in your organization. To achieve this, we describe how goals and objectives need to be clearly laid out and used to align governance processes with governance tools, governance tools with people, and people with the different roles and responsibilities that are required to implement effective governance."Oracle SOA Governance 11g Implementation" begins with a short but concise overview of SOA governance. We then go to explore real world examples, based on previous experiences and working solutions, in order to learn the concepts of Oracle SOA Governance Suite.We will also learn how to implement an OER-centric SDLC process to address your organizations design-time governance requirements. Next, we will explore OSR, and discover how to use it to expose service implementations to consumers based on UDDI concepts. We will explore the features available within Web Service Manager (WSM), Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM), and Business Transaction Manager (BTM). Finally, we discover how OER can be extended to govern Oracle Application Integration Architecture (AIA) implementations.Discover and learn how to use Oracle SOA Governance Suite to address your specific design-time and runtime governance challenges.

About the Authors

Luis Augusto Weir is HCL's Director for Oracle Fusion Middleware solutions in the EMEA, ASIA Pacific regions. With more than 11 years of experience in implementing IT solutions across the globe, Luis has successfully delivered several large and complex Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) solutions for Fortune 500 companies. He has led SOA and middleware capabilities for different renowned SIs such as CSC, Cognizant, and Capgemini. Luis is focused on assisting customers leverage the full range of Fusion Middleware offerings to resolve integration problems, improve their businesses, and establish effective technology roadmaps. Key to this success has always been Luis's special focus around governance (people, processes, and tools) and also in always having a structured and agile delivery.

Luis is an expert in SOA and also is a thought leader in this field. Having always had a natural talent for software, computers, and engineering in general, Luis's career in software started from an early age. Even before starting university, Luis's entrepreneurial spirit led him to start several ventures including the very first social media website in his country of origin (Venezuela) as well as a small software development firm. Although none of these ventures turned into a multi-million corporation, the experience and knowledge gained during this period led him to develop the passion for distributed software computing which inevitably led to SOA.

Luis is widely considered as a leader in the SOA/BPM field. In an effort to share his real-life experiences when implementing complex SOA solutions, Luis has written his first book, Oracle SOA Governance 11g Implementation, published by Packt Publishing.
