The objective of this book is to help enterprise application architects and developers
understand various Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) tools available as part
of the NetBeans IDE thus, enabling them to build an enterprise grade, scalable
application in a short period using a single development interface.
In this chapter, we will be discussing the following topics:
SOA concepts
Introduction to various BPEL Processes
Composite Applications and JBI
AirAlliance??”our sample application
According to Gartner Inc., enterprises will eventually adopt SOA for their business
critical processes, sooner or later. Although architects have been discussing and
implementing SOA for the past several years, practicing SOA is still new, and
generally requires the utmost care in application design when compared to other
similar architectures. SOA always emphasizes on distributed architecture spanning
multiple web services and applications that are part of a different heterogeneous
category of applications. This in turn adds additional complexity to the whole
system. If you do not carefully connect your various business applications through a
set of well defined processes, it will lead to data chaos and breakdowns.
