* Supercharging SOA Registries for Improved Governance and
Performance IRVINE, Calif., May 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
Representatives from Raining Data Corporation will be presenting
"Supercharging SOA Registries with XML Persistence and Management",
Session ID# TS-8098, at the 2006 JavaOne Conference to be held May
16-19, 2006 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, California. Ash
Parikh, Director of Technology & Development, Ajay
Ramachandran, CTO & Vice President and Premal Parikh, Lead
Architect from Raining Data's XML-Centric Platforms and
Applications Group will discuss this emerging technology topic.
"Raining Data's TigerLogic XDMS plug-in for Sun Service Registry
adds new value to the Sun Service Registry product by enabling
direct and efficient search of XML content within our repository
using the XQuery standard. The new features complement and
accentuate the already rich SOA Governance features of Sun Service
Registry," said Farrukh Najmi, Federated Information Management
Architect from Sun Microsystems. This session discusses the
following: Problem: The core challenge of SOA governance is to
provide an adequate governance infrastructure that scales while
still providing the agility and flexibility that SOA architectures
require. SOA metadata is becoming the lifeblood of SOA
implementations, because of its importance to corporate visibility,
policy management, and governance. The more dynamic the business
environment, the more important metadata becomes. Enterprises
traditionally store metadata and SOA payloads in relational
databases and file systems, but these data persistence tools are
not well-suited to handle SOA-related metadata and transactional
payloads. SOA metadata and payloads are fundamentally XML
(hierarchical) and therefore naturally do not fit well in
relational databases, and relational database schemas are
inflexible which do not adapt well to the always-evolving, often ad
hoc schemas in an SOA implementation, especially when business
requirements are changing. File systems do not provide the advanced
querying and management capabilities that SOA implementations
require. Solution: In order to preserve the agility of the SOA
implementation as it scales, it is essential to implement an
XML-based caching architecture. In order for an SOA repository to
enable increased performance, reliability, functionality, and
usability of SOA artifacts, an SOA implementation requires an
effective mid-tier caching architecture that supports the robust
query capabilities that XQuery offers. XQuery forms the last link
in the IT governance chain: IT governance depends on SOA
governance, which in turn depends upon policy and other metadata
management. Effective metadata management requires scalable
metadata persistence, which relies upon effective XML-native query
capabilities. XQuery enables sophisticated search for metadata
discovery. It is not sufficient simply to be able to find large
quantities of disparate metadata; users must be able to discover
just the metadata they need. Therefore, it is essential that users
have access to sophisticated metadata search capabilities. Because
of the diversity of metadata within the organization, such search
capabilities must leverage the power and complexity of XML. Since
most SOA content is XML, XQuery is the obvious choice for enabling
such searches. XQuery-enabled metadata and transactional payload
persistence enables a policy-based caching service. This caching
service enables XQuery based policies to cache result sets of
poorly performing services which can accelerate SOA payloads and
improve responsiveness to service consumers. It is also possible to
construct such policies to include the time-to-live before the
cache needs refreshing. It is possible to base such policies on
time of-day requests for determining the validity of cached data.
Policies based on service availability can then ensure that if the
service is not available, the consumer obtains the desired data
from the cache, because policies can trigger the XML persistence
mechanism. XQuery-based persistence enables a data repurposing
service to improve performance. Such a service enables filtering
and search criteria on content that a service returns. XQuery
drives the transformations behind the repurposing of SOA metadata
and payloads, providing analytics and reporting capabilities. In
addition, XQuery is used to create a data abstraction service,
which can eliminate the need for services to be aware of individual
data sources. XQuery-based metadata persistence enables a SOA
registry-repository to scale by supporting the federation of
services within a SOA implementation. A SOA repository can serve as
a persistence layer in the middle tier, storing transactional
information for many purposes, including analysis and integrity
management issues. SOA-enabling technologies such as enterprise
service buses and orchestration engines can then employ such an
XQuery enabled SOA repository for state management, workflow
persistence, content acceleration, content based routing, policy
management & enforcement, and message persistence. XQuery
optimizes metadata management by improving agility and efficiency
of SOA administration and maintenance across the enterprise. It is
not sufficient to erect a SOA registry-repository without providing
a seamless, flexible and real-time mechanism to administer and
update the SOA as organizational policy, business conditions and
customer needs change. XQuery provides a powerful and flexible
approach to automate SOA maintenance and eliminate the need for
costly manual and programmatic updates to SOA metadata, especially
when the SOA spans across enterprise departments and stakeholders.
Furthermore, XQuery can be utilized to refresh the metadata in a
SOA registry-repository by querying or polling the actual service
endpoints across the enterprise and between trading partners to
assess any changes thereby keeping the SOA continually updated and
responsive to business change. XQuery improves SOA governance and
policy management by enforcing policies on SOA transactions and
payloads. As the number of services endpoints, transactions and
payloads in the SOA increase, XQuery plays an increasingly
important role in the SOA to enforce policies by introspecting
payloads, analyzing their content, determining policy violations
and taking the appropriate action. This approach to SOA governance
and policy management ensures organizational alignment,
consistency, and reliability of an SOA. XQuery enables
high-performance composite applications with real-time, flexible
composite data by exposing heterogeneous legacy data as consumable
data services. XQuery enables composite data services by
representing existing data sources such as relational databases,
java and .net applications, JCA, JMS, websites, web services, file
systems as web service endpoints that can be rapidly exposed in an
enterprise SOA. Raining Data Advantage: Raining Data's TigerLogic
XDMS offers the highest performance and scalable XML persistence
and XQuery platform on the market. The TigerLogic patent pending
XML indexing/profiling technology and Pick(R) Universal Data Model
persistence engine enables it to perform up to 150x faster when
accessing XML metadata with XQuery than relational databases, XML
repositories, XML index/search engines or file systems, therefore
providing the lowest total cost of ownership option
(http://www.rainingdata.com/products/tl/index.html). The TigerLogic
XDMS platform also provides sophisticated mid-tier data caching
services for SOA architectures allowing for rapid creation of
composite data services of existing legacy systems and the
acceleration-repurpose of content in the SOA. The presentation will
be given as part of the "Leading Edge" track, session TS-8098. More
