The concepts of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Representational State Transfer (REST) have been around for a while now. While the benefits of moving to these models have been reasonably well documented, businesses often may not realize the full potential of moving to this model and what it means from a business stand point. Further, alignment between business and technology within an organization is really important for successfully leveraging the Service orientation for business agility. The key reasons for moving to service orientation include business agility, operational excellence and enabling innovation. This keynote delves into this and explains how businesses can benefit with this model, citing an example of how eBay has successfully been able to pioneer and leverage service orientation.

More enterprises are recognizing the opportunity to extend the reach and cost-efficiency of their applications by delivering them as software-as-a-service (SaaS). However, the approach to deploying in the cloud and the choice of either cloud middleware software or a platform-as-a-service (PaaS) can significantly affect the success of a SaaS implementation.
WSO2 Stratos is a complete enterprise-ready cloud middleware platform designed to extend SOAs to the cloud, and it is the software that powers the WSO2 StratosLive PaaS. By providing WSO2 Carbon products as services over public, private, and hybrid cloud infrastructure, WSO2 Stratos offers an ideal platform for SaaS developers to create, manage and run enterprise-class applications and services with all the inherent benefits of a true cloud-native environment.In this session, we will be looking at the WSO2 Stratos cloud middleware platform and the benefits it offers in developing, testing, deploying and managing cloud-native applications.

Increasingly enterprises view cloud computing as a cost-effective platform for quickly developing, modifying and deploying applications to respond to rapidly changing market conditions. Platform-as-a-service (PaaS) complements popular infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) offerings, such as Amazon EC2, by providing middleware products as services to enable application development and integration in the cloud. However, not all PaaS approaches are the same. Many only support Web application development. Only a few, such as WSO2 StratosLive, provide the breadth of services to support complex enterprise applications in the cloud employing a service-oriented architecture. This session will explore the capabilities of StratosLive to build complex SOA applications with all the cloud-native benefits, such as self-provisioning, multi-tenancy, elasticity and metering. It also will examine how to architect an application so that it can fit well in StratosLive, including the details of how to build cool cloud applications.

Sociedad Hipotecaria Federal (SHF) is a second-tier Mexican bank that is part of the development banking sector. The operation is based on a value chain of processes that includes promotion, credit approval, instrumentation, analysis, monitoring, control, collection and recovery. These processes require the integration of workflows involving human tasks, as well as automated tasks between old and new core banking systems and insurance, treasury and collateral management systems. This case study will review the strategy behind the bank’s adoption of an open source middleware platform to integrate and standardize these processes, achieve operational efficiency, decrease overall IT costs, and deliver higher levels of service to both internal and external clients. The session will also examine lessons the IT team learned along the way.

The recent security breaches of major corporations and government agencies once again highlight the importance of implementing an effective security model within an SOA deployment to protect company data, employees, partners and customers. Going beyond authentication, authorization and auditing, security in practice relies heavily on battle-tested security patterns to combat thousands of cyber criminals worldwide seeking to exploit the any security hole in the system. This session will review patterns, best practices and threats associated with SOA security models. It will also explore standards, such as WS-Security, SAML, XACML, WS-Trust, WS-SecureConversation and WS-SecurityPolicy, which have emerged over the years to define the ‘best-fit’ security model to an SOA deployment based on Web services. Additionally, it will look at how OpenID, OAuth, and Simple Cloud Identity Management (SCIM) have evolved over the years to provide a ‘best-fit’ security model for Internet identity management.
