What do we mean by SOA Connectivity?

Another term for “Application Integration”

Software that enables applications to connect to one another– Communications Protocols (Messaging)

• i.e., the method used to exchange information

– Protocol and Information Mediation (Brokering/ESB)• i.e., the translation of protocols and messages into

something each sending and receiving system understands.

– Event Identification and Distribution (Brokering/ESB)• i.e., the interception, analysis, and manipulation of the

“content” of messages “in-flight” (routing, event processing)

A necessary underpinning for Business Process Management.

The solution to Universal Connectivity IBM WebSphere MQ

WebSphere MQ can dramatically reduce application infrastructure costs by providing a single manageable distributed infrastructure for all application messaging traffic.

HTTP, FTP, …Multiple APIs

Features:– Supports the broadest range of APIs, programming

languages and OS platforms

– Provides the only JMS engine that can be implemented on “any” standards-compliant JEE server

– Provides rich web services interfaces meeting customer needs for WS-Reliability

– Offers a broad range of qualities of service and messaging methods including publish/subscribe

– Provides Low Latency and Extended Security editions

– Offers the most scalable, most manageable messaging system available

– Assures transactional message delivery end-to-end.

Universal Messaging Backbone

Business Problem:• Companies use a variety of messaging systems (MQ, FTP, HTTP, variety of JMS, Microsoft

MSMQ).• JMS is often considered a unifier, but every JEE app server has its own JMS engine that uses its

own proprietary wire format (i.e., JMS systems don’t talk to one another).• Plus JMS only supports Java. What about C, C++, C#, COBOL, etc.• Result: Companies incur the cost of managing and connecting many different messaging systems.

Who is impacted:• CIO

What is impacted:• Difficulties getting systems

connected.• Expensive to manage

networks.

Solution:Standardize all messaging on WebSphere MQ and reduce your messaging costs:

1. Supports a wide variety of APIs and systems 2. Acts as the JMS provider under ANY JEE servers3. Integrates all Microsoft and legacy systems4. Provides the most assured scalable manageable messaging backbone5. Provides reliability for Web Services traffic

Business Problem:• Companies are increasing their Web Services traffic.• HTTP is the common choice for transport, BUT HTTP is NOT RELIABLE.• The WS-Reliability is what everybody is waiting for but WS-Reliability is still a long way from real.

Who is impacted:• CIOs, IT

What is impacted:

• Web Services implementations lose critical business transactions.

Solution:WebSphere MQ provides a reliable, manageable backbone for Web Services.Three customer scenarios:

1. Client wants to run Web Services over a reliable protocol (MQ) MQ SOAP Client2. Client has services already written to HTTP but wants MQ MQ-HTTP Bridge3. Client wants to register existing MQ apps as services MQ Services Definitions

Data Security (e.g. for the Payment Card Industry (PCI))

Problem:• Data security is becoming increasingly more important to many businesses.• A major driver is the PCI Data Security Standard (DSS) driven by issuers of all major credit cards

(Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, JCB, Diner’s Club). • Non-compliant companies who deal in credit card records face heavy fines from card issuer or

acquirer banks if they are not compliant. • Companies MUST: (1) Use a firewall to protect cardholder data, (2) Encrypt all emails and

messages, (3) Encrypt all data at rest (e.g., in message queues)

Who is impacted:• Any company dealing in credit card information:

• Retailers, Hospitality, Transportation, Financial Services, Healthcare/Education, Public Sector, Telecommunications, Utilities

What is impacted:• Heavy fines if not compliant.

Solution:• WebSphere MQ Extended Security Edition (an upgrade to WebSphere MQ):

• Provides encryption of data in queues as well as explicit access control to message queues.• WebSphere DataPower (XS40 Security Appliance or XI50 Integration Appliance):

• Provides firewall and data encryption.

Managed File Transfer

Problem:• Today most companies rely on basic FTP and home-grown code that often lacks:• Auditability- can I show in an audit where my files went where and when?• Security- who can access files and documents in transit?• Reliability- do I know if the whole file or batch actually arrived?

Who is impacted:• CIOs, CFOs, CEOs

What is impacted:• Integrity of data transfers• Lack of auditability

Solution:WebSphere MQ File Transfer Edition V7.0

Provides:• Ability to centrally manage and audit transfers of files and documents throughout the enterprise

• Delivery of a Managed File Transfer solution that enables files of all sizes to be moved reliably and securely

• Consolidation of messaging and file transfer infrastructure into single backbone - MQ
