Agenda
• What is Modular Middleware?– WSO2 Carbon
• What is it and why did we build it?• Why is it important?
– How does it work?– Carbon 3.0.0
• Digging into the new release
– What’s next• The Carbon App• Beter Provisioning

Our Strategy
• Design Objectves for WSO2 Middleware: – Self-consistent and lean – Internal interoperability – External interoperability– Infnitely fexible and agile for rapid soluton
architecture adopton – Open standards and Open Source – A complete middleware platorm from data to
screen

What is Carbon and why?• Carbon is modular middleware • “Eclipse for Servers”
– Completely built as a set of well-defned OSGi components
– Highly stable foundaton for middleware • High volume producton use cases 200m+
transactons/day
– Re-confgurable• Install new features, uninstall, revert
– Fits the middleware to the architecture• Zero bloat but more than 150 features

The Soluton: WSO2 Carbon

The Soluton: WSO2 Carbon

The Soluton: WSO2 Carbon
![Page 12: Why Does Modular Middleware Matters](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6d8694a795983428b467e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Why did we build Carbon?
• Initally we wanted to have small independent teams – Fast and agile
• But we soon ended up with overlap and underlap– Some teams were duplicatng functon– Some products were missing functon that was
already coded– But we didn’t want to lose the small team agility
![Page 13: Why Does Modular Middleware Matters](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6d8694a795983428b467e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Why is it important?
1. It makes WSO2 even more agile2. It means that you already know how to
manage WSO2 systemsa. Security management of BPS is the same as ESB,
WSAS, etcb. Clustering, Keystores, etc etc are all consistent
3. It is highly extensible: new components can be writen by WSO2 or you
4. You can confgure the systems to ft your architecture
![Page 14: Why Does Modular Middleware Matters](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6d8694a795983428b467e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The right SOA middleware for the architecture
![Page 15: Why Does Modular Middleware Matters](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6d8694a795983428b467e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The right middleware
• Use just the components you need • Add the right components in the right place
– Data Services + Mediaton– BPS and Data Services– etc…
• No need for multple product installs to accomplish simple functon– Compare the size of Carbon with ESB and BPS
loaded to competng BPMS+ESB
![Page 16: Why Does Modular Middleware Matters](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/54b6d8694a795983428b467e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Carbon Architecture
• Clean “front-end/back-end” separaton– Every component has a core runtme, a clean SOA
management interface, a well-defned front-end console component
– All completely pluggable, versioned, etc
• Full dependency management – Hence full re-use
• Pluggable common core services:– Registry, Key Management, Identty Management,
Clustering, Monitoring/JMX, Transports, etc– Cloud enabled (hold that thought)

p2 – Provisioning Platorm
• Part of the OSGi Equinox project– A well-defned model for provisioning components– Based on a web or fle based repository
• Can be hosted internally for an organizaton
– Three approaches:• Command line • Web console• Secure remote API
• Today– Provision the middleware
• Coming soon - Provision user applicatons

Patches under Carbon 3.0
• Patches are p2 features– Patch management now allows installaton, de-installaton
and revert to version
• Service Packs are p2 group features– Manage dependencies – Install all pre-requisite patches– Uninstall / revert
Please note that patches and service packs are only licensed for producton use to our producton support customers

Carbon Apps (cApps)
• A cApp is a repository of features• Each feature is a deployable OSGi bundle containing a part of
an applicaton– E.g. ESB sequence, Services, BPEL fow, etc
• The cApp contains a “logical topology” – Mapping from app components to roles
• An automated build/deploy process adds a “physical topology” – Mapping into physical Carbon VMs
• The applicaton features have dependencies on the runtme components they run on:– Deploying an ESB sequence will ensure there is ESB code to run it on

Other Futures
• Webapp support• Consistent endpoint management (Discovery
vs Deployment)• Cloud!
– Cloud deployment– Mult-tenancy– Plenty more

Summary
• WSO2 Carbon is the only complete modular middleware platorm
– Confgure your SOA as your architecture needs– Grow as your needs grow– Provision exactly what you need– Prepare for a cloudy future
