Patterns: Implementing

Self-Service

in an SOA Environment

Integrate Web

applications with the

enterprise tier

Explore Web

services, J2EE

Connectors, and JMS

solutions

Use SOA and ESB

technology

The Patterns for e-business are a group of proven, reusable

assets that can be used to increase the speed of developing

and deploying Web applications. This IBM Redbook focuses

on the use of service-oriented architecture and the enterprise

service bus to build solutions that help organizations achieve

rapid, flexible integration of IT systems.

It includes the Self-Service::Directly Integrated Single

Channel pattern for implementing point-to-point connections

with back-end applications, the Self-Service::Router pattern

for implementing intelligent routing among multiple back-end

applications, and the Self-Service::Decomposition pattern for

decomposing a request into multiple requests and

recomposing the results into a single response.

This IBM Redbook teaches you by example how to design and

build sample solutions using WebSphere Application Server

V6 with Web services, J2EE Connectors and IBM CICS, and

JMS using the WebSphere Application Server default

messaging provider. WebSphere Application Server service

integration technology is used to implement enterprise

service bus functionality.
