OASIS
What is OASIS?
• OASIS = Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards
• OASIS has been developing e-Standards since 1993• OASIS is a member-led, international non-profit standards
consortium concentrating on structured information and global e-business standards.
• Close to 5000 members and 500 organizations• Supports over 60 technical committees producing royalty-
free and RAND standards in an open process.
“The largest standards group for electronic commerce on the Web”
50% Technology Providers• Software vendors• Industry organisations• Individuals / small
developers
OASIS Member Distribution
15% Government & Academic• Governments• Universities• Research centres &
related nonprofits

OASIS Technical Standards
Technical trends in OASIS work
• Infrastructure work is maturing
• The action is moving up the "stack" to content and semantics
• Stronger emphasis on service orientation: interoperability and re-use
• End users are providing more of the content

Business Centric Methodology TC
1. BCM templates for the Repository
2. Information architecture
3. Connections
SOA Blueprints TC
• Methodology– “Open-Source” RFP
• Built around Generico• Donation from CapGemini for defining Business Requirements• Donation from WellsFargo
– “Open-Source” POC• Vendor-Neutral source of information and benchmarks
– Best Practices & Patterns• http://dev.bea.com/technologies/soa/blueprint.jsp• Reference implementations from BEA, Microsoft, Oracle, Sun
SOA Blueprint Goals
• Part of a long term project, SOA Blueprints aims to:– Define a baseline standardized set of enterprise applications– Focus on SOA principles– Highlight SOA design patterns and best practices– Encourage SOA adoption– Be industry agnostic– Be applicable to as many organizations as possible
• The specification will lead to:– An agreement on SOA terminology– A reference open source implementation– An implementation by vendors– Additional modules with particular industry focus
SOA Blueprints Implementation Environments
• Definition of services independent of implementation, location or use
• Implementation and hosting of services as a provider• Location and usage of services as a consumer• Assembly of services from other services and business rules• Support for synchronous, asynchronous and conversational
services• Orchestration of application presentation built on services
and rules• Automated data transformation between disparate data
structures• Provisioning of local and remote services• Support for simulating, testing and debugging of services
More OASIS SOA Prescriptive Work
• ebSOA– Update the ebXML Architecture in an SOA context
• Framework for WS Implementation– design a template for Web services deployment to enable
systems integrators, software vendors, and in-house developers to build e-commerce solutions more quickly
• SOA Reference Model– define a reference model for Service Oriented Architecture
• Semantic Execution Environment– guidelines, justifications and implementation directions for
an execution environment for Semantic Web services
End-User Company Benefits
• Influence direction and priorities of standards development by aligning your strategic requirements with the standards
• Learn and adopt best practices • Improve Vendor and Partner selection through a better
understanding of why they are choosing their implementation and product directions
• Shift training expenses to standards participation to better educate technical staff on trends and developments of technology
• Observe practical implementations from multiple vendors for given business scenarios
• Speed up your implementations by participating in multi-vendor interoperability demonstrations with your specific use cases
