BNP Paribas Challenge


Business ChallengeIn order to increase corporate cross selling across all banking business lines there was a need to bring together information from three CRMs (Siebel, PeopleSoft, home made CICS-based application) To add to this the unified CRM needed to tn connect several departments including Investment Banking, Asset Management, and Retail.

Technical Challenge The existing software infrastructure is WebSphere and the solution needed to support the existing infrastructure. Several attempts were made to put forward a solution leveraging Websphere tools but the efforts were time consuming and expensive.

Business BenefitLeveraging iWay a Unified CRM systems was created in weeks rather then months that leveraged the exiting Websphere infrastructure. The staff has concluded that leveraging iWay made the creation of the "services" that tie together all of the systems front-end, back end, etc - easy to create, easy to maintain, and the development cycle was drastically reduced.

SOA + Legacy = Modernization

Introduction


SOA


SOA is…

A design philosophy and Architecture

A means

A solution

Achieved through Web Services and related technologies

SOA is NOT…

A technology or a methodology

Not an end

Not a product

Only Web Services

Demystify SOA

Opportunity Emerges when SOA is Adopted


It does not mandate building everything from scratch It does not mean that it will be more expensive to implement. Development costs will be lower over time due to enforcement of a new level of reuse (process, interfaces and components) It increases flexibility due to loosely coupling of resources (services), allowing plug and play of underlying technologies and individual components (with multiple vendor and best of breed solutions) It supports faster time to market

Things we need to remember about SOA


A function that needs to be used by more than one system An entire application A particular product service (e.g. a scoring service) A particular common utility (e.g. assembling a document, printing a document) An external web application (e.g. a credit check transaction to the credit bureau) A host transaction (e.g. IMS) via web services

Rick: Let me investigate, I will get back to you in a week

Rick: Janet, I have some great news. We can do it. But it will take 19-24 months oh, and we have to wait until next year until our current projects clear.

Janet: Oh, that won’t do. We need to be able to transform quicker

Companies face a range of SOA Middleware ESB requirements. As a result an given project might require an ESB or Advanced ESB.

What is Legacy

Can Existing Technology standards?


Why SOA Enable Legacy Systems


Complex logic in legacy apps make it more attractive to reuse than to rewrite

Many legacy systems perform well, are highly available, and the ROI to rewrite them is not appealing

With a heavy investment in mainframe technologies, modernizing and reusing makes more sense

SOA is a strategy to enable the flexibility to rewrite legacy applications when the time is right

Why SOA Enable Legacy Systems


Unlocking the legacy asset

Technical issues Legacy applications can be complex and difficult to

decouple There are many ways to enable access to a legacy

asset. How do you choose the right one?

Organizational issues Ownership of a service – who “owns” the service Funding the service – legacy application teams

don’t have much appetite to create a reusable service because a) there is more complexity involved in the solution and b) they now must support multiple consumers

Many applications were written years ago, so authors of those applications may have moved on

Limited resources that understand both legacy and SOA technologies
