Reminder from Week 1 Lecture

•  RPC –  Simple and useful programming abstraction –  …but problematic in terms of failure handling

•  Alternatives to “pure” RPC –  Decouple request from response (two RPCs) –  Transactional RPC –  Message queuing (Message-Oriented Middleware – MOM)

•  Interface vs. Payload Semantics –  Interface semantics: Applications are programmed against an

interface –  Payload semantics: Applications produce and consume self-

contained documents

Classification of Middleware

Remote Procedure Call

sockets

TCP, UDP

Internet Protocol (IP)

sockets: operating system level interface to the underlying communication protocols

TCP, UDP: User Datagram Protocol (UDP) transports data packets without guarantees Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) verifies correct delivery of data streams

Internet Protocol (IP): moves a packet of data from one node to another

Transactional RPC

Object-oriented RPC (RMI)

Asynchronous RPC

TP-Monitors Object brokers

Message Brokers - MOM

Application servers

Specialized forms of RPC with additional functionality or properties

Beyond RPC: CORBA •  The Common Object

Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) is an architecture for component- based distributed middleware

•  Includes: –  Object Request Broker (ORB):

in charge of the interaction between components

–  CORBA services: standard definitions of system services

–  A standardized Interface Definition Language (IDL)

–  Protocols for allowing ORBs to talk to each other

Example of an interface definition in CORBA’S IDL

module Bank { typedef float CashAmount; ... interface Account { exception InsufficientFunds { string reason; }; void withdraw(in CashAmount amount)

raises(InsufficientFunds); ... }; };

CORBA Application Structure

•  Stubs and skeletons are generated from IDL interface descriptions

•  They can be generated for multiple programming languages (e.g. C++, C, Ada, Smalltalk, Java) and multiple platforms

•  With the widespread adoption of the JVM, this feature lost its appeal…

9

Other RPC-based frameworks

•  Java Remote Method Invocation –  Similar to CORBA RPC but without IDL (uses Java interfaces that

inherit from java.rmi.Remote) –  Includes a registry to publish & retrieve objects by names –  Uses CORBA’s Inter-ORB Object Protocol (IIOP) to transfer

objects over TCP/IP

•  .Net Remoting: similar to Java RMI but: –  Doesn’t require use of (remote) interfaces –  Doesn’t require a name service to locate remote servers, uses

known URIs instead. –  More customizable with respect to communication channels and

serialization protocols.

10

Enterprise JavaBeans (EJB) •  EJB is a server-side component model for enterprise

applications developed in Java •  Enterprise beans run in an EJB container, a runtime

environment within the Application Server

11

Types of Enterprise Java Beans

•  Session Bean –  Used for dealing with a single client –  Bean’s lifetime corresponds to the client’s “session”. –  May be stateless or stateful (“conversational state”). –  Not the same as a Servlet/JSP session (maintained by the web

container)

•  Message-Driven Bean –  Beans which listen for messages arriving at a message

destination. –  Unlike other EJBs, can’t be accessed directly via an interface. –  Execute asynchronously (relative to the original message send).

12

14

When to Use Enterprise Beans?

•  You should consider using enterprise beans if your application has any of the following requirements: –  The application logic needs to be distributed. To

accommodate a growing number of users, you may need to distribute an application's components across multiple machines. The location of EJBs remains transparent to the clients.

–  Transactions needed to ensure data integrity. Enterprise beans support transactions.

•  Lightweight alternative to EJBs: Spring Framework

Message-Oriented Middleware

•  Channels are separate from applications

•  Channels are asynchronous & reliable (queues or topics)

•  Data is exchanged in self-contained messages

 Remove location dependencies

 Remove temporal dependencies

 Payload semantics: Avoids data format dependencies

Aimed at achieving decoupling and reliability

System B

System A

Message Channel

16

MOM Platforms

•  Traditional MOM platforms –  IBM WebSphere MQ –  Microsoft MSMQ –  Java Message Service (JMS) implementations, e.g.

•  SUN’s reference implementation •  TIBCO, WebMethods, WebLogic, WebSphere MQ, …

•  MOM wrapped as Asynchronous Web services –  Sun’s Metro Stack (on top of Message-Driven Beans) –  Microsoft’s Windows Communication Foundation (WCF)

The Underlying Design Principles Are the Same!

Thinking Asynchronously: Hohpe’s Enterprise Integration Patterns


19

Pattern: (Asynchronous) Request-Reply

•  Service Provider and Consumer (similar to RPC) •  Channels are unidirectional •  Two asynchronous Point-To-Point Channels •  Separate request and reply messages •  But how do we know which reply matches which request?

Request Channel

Reply

Request

Reply Channel

Provider Consumer


20

Pattern: Correlation Identifier

•  Equip each message with a unique identifier –  Message ID (simple, but has limitations) –  GUID (Globally Unique ID) –  Business key (e.g. Order ID)

•  Provider copies the ID to the reply message •  Consumer can match request and response

Message Identifier 1

Pattern: Return Address

?

•  Each consumer has its own reply queue •  How does the provider know where to send the reply?

–  Could send to all consumers very inefficient –  Hard code violates principle of context-free service

Requests Request Channel

Reply Channel 2

Pattern: Return Address (continued)

•  Consumer specifies Return Address (reply channel) in the request message

•  Service provider sends reply message to specified channel

Reply Channel 1

Reply Channel 2 Provider


23

Web Services: Technology Stack

24

Architectural Style: REST •  Principles:

–  A service exposes resources identified by URI –  Uniform interface: create, read, update, delete (PUT, GET, POST,

DELETE) –  Stateful interactions through connections only – each request is self-

contained

•  Realizations: –  POX (Plain XML) over HTTP –  Hypermedia REST

•  Benefits: –  Simplicity, lightweight infrastructure

•  Drawback: –  Lack of methods for producing well-described RESTful services

25

Architectural Style: WS-*

•  Principles –  One service endpoint (URI) = multiple operations –  Operations are service-dependent –  Separation of message meta-data (header) and body (payload) –  Protocol transparency

•  Realization –  SOAP + WS-* standards

•  Benefits: –  Can operate on top of several protocols –  Enables the delivery of infrastructure services (e.g. security, transactions,

routing, reliability) –  Well-tied with methods for contract-first development

•  Drawbacks: –  Requires heavier, more specific infrastructure; can be easily misused

26

SOAP Message Structure

Header •  Carries metadata for

infrastructure services •  WS-* standards define types of

header elements & semantics Body •  contains the payload •  interpreted by the target

component (i.e. Web Service), •  can contain fault elements

27

HTTP Binding: POST HTTP Binding: Response

<PurchaseOrder xmlns="..."> <LineItem> <product>P19</product> <amount>20</amount> </LineItem> </PurchaseOrder>

POST /webshare/ws1/TestWS1.asmx HTTP/1.1 Host: localhost Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: XX SOAPAction: "http://tempuri.org/PO"

<PurchaseOrderResponse xmlns="...">

<LineItemAck> <product>P19</product> <status>OK</status> </LineItemAck> </PurchaseOrderResponse>

HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: text/xml; charset=utf-8 Content-Length: XX

WSDL: PortTypes and Operations <portType name="providerPT"> <operation name="rfQ"> <input message="tns:rfQMsg"/> </operation> <operation name="order"> <input message="tns:orderMsg"/> </operation> <operation name="cancelOrder"> <input message="tns:cancelOrderMsg"/> </operation> </portType> <portType name="requesterPT"> <operation name="quote"> <input message="tns:quoteMsg"/> </operation> <operation name="rejectRfQ"> <input message="tns:rejectRfQMsg"/> </operation> </portType>

<operation name="rfQ"> <input message="tns:rfQMsg"/> <output message="tns:rfQAckMsg"/> <fault name="cannotUnderstandRfQ" message="tns:rfQFaultMsg"/> </operation>

One-way Operation

Two-Way Operation, also with fault

WSDL Example

WSDL: Bindings <binding name="providerPTBinding" type="tns:providerPT"> <soap:binding style="document" transport="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/http"/> <operation name="rfQ"> <soap:operation style="document" soapAction="rfQ"/> <input> <soap:header message="tns:ReplyToHeader" part="ReplyTo" use="literal"/> <soap:header message="tns:MessageIDHeader" part="MessageID“ use="literal"/> <soap:body use="literal"/> </input> </operation> ... </soap:binding> </binding>

WSDL Example

32

WSDL: Services <service name="salesBP"> <port name="providerPTPort" binding="tns:providerPTBinding"> <soap:address location="http://localhost:8080/salesBP/1.0"/> </port> </service> <service name="requesterPTService"> <port name="requesterPTPort" binding="tns:requesterPTBinding"> <soap:address location="http://set.by.caller"/> </port> </service> ... </definitions>

URI where the provider is accessible

The requester’s location is set on the fly in the SOAP header

Requester Provider

36

Additional WS-* Specifications •  WS-Addressing: Defines SOAP headers for:

–  Including sender, return addresses and message IDs –  Including references to related messages (can be useful to relate a

request and a reply)

•  WS-Security: Defines extensions to SOAP for: –  propagation of security tokens which securely identify and

authenticate clients, –  message integrity via XML Signature, –  message confidentially via XML Encryption.

•  WS-ReliableMessaging –  Extensions for reliable delivery of messages (exactly-once delivery)

37

Web Services Programming

•  Java –  SUN Metro Stack (implemented by Glassfish)

including JAX-WS and JAXB –  Open-source Web service platforms: Mule, JBossWS,

Apache Axis2 –  Proprietary Web Service platforms: Oracle SOA Suite,

IBM Websphere –  Spring Web Services

•  Windows Communication Foundation

38

Windows Communication Foundation

•  Programming model for distributed applications, supporting RPC and message queues

•  Part of .Net Framework (v3.0 and above) •  Key abstractions:

–  Service: class bound to a service contract –  Endpoint: Deployed in a host, available at a URL

•  Classes and methods are turned into services & operations through annotations (.Net attributes)

39

WCF Interaction Styles

•  One Way –  Fire-and-forget

•  Request-Reply –  Immediate Reply on same logical thread

•  Duplex (asynchronous request-reply) –  Reply “later” and on return channel (callback-style)

One Way
