Extend the Reach of Existing Applications

Expose existing applications without change

SOAP & Web 2.0 based access to existing systems

Create a gateway for routing and security

INBOUND and OUTBOUND scenarios

SOAP Web Services Established as Interoperability Standard

– SOAP support allows MB to act as WS-* façade to existing non WS-* applications

• Support for SOAP/HTTP and SOAP/JMS (any), includes transactions & asynchronous processing

– SOAP gateway functionality for WSDL-less, policy based processing in large web service networks

• Examples range from simple service re-direct to payload verify/sign, encrpyt/decprypt with routing

� Web 2.0/REST Provides Lightweight Universal Access

– HTTP ubiquity & REST semantic provide universal access to existing systems

– Popular with both XML and JSON payloads (JSON for lightweight clients)

� Outbound Scenarios enable Existing Applications to request New Services

– Existing application can invoke and exploit new services with existing technology

� Typical Customers

– US Payroll Corp. exposes MQ applications via self service SOAP interface for responsiveness & accuracy

– WW (US based) Airline access external web services from existing JMS/MQ reservation system

– US Wireless Operator expose legacy billing systems via HTTP/XML for customer self service

– Swedish Banking group uses gateway to authenticate, lookup, authorize & route to backend web service

Connect File and Online for End-to-End EfficiencyShare the valuable business data in your files

Create an efficient pipeline between your file data and on-line applications

Control a well managed, flexible file infrastructure

� Streamline batch oriented and on-line processing with the MB

– Message Broker provides end-to-end file processing: gets stationary data moving!

– Typical scenarios are file to queue, database to file, file to file, file to SAP, File PubSub…

– Comprehensive file systems support includes local files, network mounted file, FTP and SFTP

– Process whole-file or record-at-a-time; simple delimiters to complex COBOL, XML & user defined

� Timely, Intelligent, Transactional Transfers with FTE nodes

– FTE Input and FTE output nodes allow MB to receive and send FTE transfers

– Installed seamlessly as part of regular install, auto configured client name, transfer directories etc.

– Timely processing: file is processed once FTE agent confirms notifies of complete file transfer

– Add intelligence to your file processing via user specified metadata

– FTE’s transactional underpinning & MB sequencing for once-and-once only files!

� 2011 Sterling C:D Integration

– MB and C:D MFT can now integrate seamlessly

– Exploits C:D specific capabilities including C:D process steps


– German Retailer uses MB & FTE for POS reporting to HQ & price list distribution to store

– NE US Retailer using FTE & MB to provide timely inventory updates to and from online systems



Connect Devices to the EnterpriseMonitor remote systems and devices

Provide near real-time insight about physical systems, and act

� Industry Observation

– “How to we get information from everywhere, understand it, and act?”

– Medical, Energy and Utilities, Distribution, Transport, Gaming…

– Issues based e.g. traffic congestion, efficient energy, timely supply…

� A Smarter Planet is full of devices

– Data is generated *outside* the enterprise

• Typically very large numbers of devices:

• Often concentrator technology; differentiate, integrate & forward

– MQTT for standards based device integration

• Small footprint client, embeddable, Low bandwidth cost

• Fragile network support for hostile environments

� MB to Connect Devices, Apply Intelligence

– Connects MQTT devices to enterprise systems

– Apply intelligence in near real-time; systems tend to be passive today


– US Medical and Technology services company monitors pacemakers for home health

– Swedish city congestion charging, traffic calming and pollution reduction

IBM is working with Brisbane, London, Singapore and Stockholm to deploy smarter traffic systems. Stockholm has seen approximately 20 percent less traffic, a 12 percent drop in emissions and a reported 40,000 additional daily users of public transportation.



Get the Most from Packaged ApplicationsProvide broad access to EIS systems

Move information to and from packaged systems

� Packaged Applications Provide Best of Breed Business Function

– SAP for purchasing, sales, inventory…

– SEBL for Sales, PeopleSoft for HR

– Oracle, JDEdwards…etc

� Interfaces are often non standard: e.g. SAP BAPIs, IDOCs

– Processing and data are isolated from other applications

– Result: packaged apps have difficultly using/generating information for other apps

– Inhibits adoption of a best of breed philosophy

� Support for SAP, SEBL, PeopleSoft, JDEdwards… inbound and outbound

– Connectivity built-in – no extra moving parts

– Drive new work into its packaged application from any other supported source

– Can send information from packaged application to any other supported target

– Packaged applications can focus on what they do best and be integrated

� Typical customers

– NA Railroad uses MB for all SAP to SAP communication

– WW Pharmaceutical uses MB for order payment to SAP and distribution notification from SAP

– WW Hotel chain uses MB for SEBL customer billing and sales systems



Distribute Database Information to Where It’s Needed!

� Database Node allows tables to be treated as input source

– Typical scenarios include database to queue & file, or PubSub data distribution

– Captures database changes (Insert Update, Delete) to trigger connectivity processing

– Supports single and multiple tables, complex joins, and other database oriented semantics

– Extends existing database capabilities in MB to provide comprehensive inbound & outbound support

– Works with full range of broker databases including Oracle, DB2, SQL server, solidDB and more…

• Most existing Event table and data table structures supported without database change

– RAD tools construct skeleton database queries to simplify user experience

• Power users can create sophisticated SQL routines if required or desired

� Fully Transactional with High Performance and Scalability

– Distinct event cache & data transactions minimizes contention

– Exploits SQL engine for full 2PC transactions


– German Distributor captures order updates for downstream systems notification

– French Food manufacturer for timely notification of database updates to SAP

• Uses MB SAP connectivity and database support

Distribute database updates to where they’re needed

Provide timely access to changed database information

Move to near real-time data trickle from infrequent ETL extract

Provide a PEP for Secure Application ConnectivityProvide secure access (AAA) to applications and services

Understand and convert broad range of security domain identities

Provide secure external access services to partners

� Connectivity often implies security domain change

– MB supports a broad variety of security tokens

– Userid/pw, X509, SAML, Kerberos, LTPA…

� MB is Policy Enforcement Point (PEP)

– Security is enforced here, still owned by PDP

– Identity management, access control, authorizationand authentication mechanisms (AAA) are essential

� Policy Decision Point (PDP) and MB work together

– PDP combination provides a secure infrastructure

– Ensures conformance to centralized security policy

– Many different PDP technologies supported

• Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)

Microsoft Active Directory, Open LDAP…

• Tivoli Federated Identity Manager (TFIM)

• WS-Trust, zOS SAF including RACF

� External Partner Access to Services

– DP security hardened DMZ device strengths

– Combine network and MB functionality



Advertise

availability of the ‘virtual services’

� Catalog application and service assets using a registry, e.g. WSRR

– Web Service and MQ Service definitions

– Classifications: by function, owning department

– Relationships: applications dependencies for lifecycle management, versioning

– User defined properties (metadata): Application=GOLD or Service=SILVER

� Use registry information in MB routing

– Built-in MB facilities allow access registry

• In memory cache for high performance

• Automatic change invalidation

– Enables policy based processing, examples

• Simple routing based on client metadata

• Dynamic WS-SecurityPolicy processing

• Dynamic transformation based on endpoint

Monitor Your Business and Act Intelligently

Understand the business relevance of MB data

Apply business rules to MB data in-flight

Detect business situations and act quickly

� MB Connectivity Processes Events from many Sources, Targets

– Capture business relevant information for WebSphere Business Monitor

• Examples: total dollar trade value per day, orders per hour

– Capture business events to correlation with WebSphere Business Events

• Look for correlations in data, e.g. fraud, sales opportunities, CRM

– Audit, Repair and Replay transported events

� Generate Business Monitoring Events from existing connectivity

– Enables integration with WebSphere Monitor to display & analyze KPIs

– Design time and operational time event activation

– Notification via CEI & Publish subscribe

� Rule-based Decision Services render decisions on input data

– Most often this data comes from a variety of data sources: aggregation, transformation is required

– Rule-based Decision Services send outcome decisions to other systems: rule based routing


– European Motor manufacturer creates virtual system of record for audit

– NA Insurance company uses MB+ILOG for business decisions routing

– UK Retail group measures store throughput by item for real-time trending

ILOG rules

Inputs Outputs



Detect and Act Upon Business Events

Identify a diverse range of business events and act

Compose existing applications and services to create new value

� MB Event Capture and Process Initiation

– Breadth of MB connectivity enables multiple business process starting points

• Identify event and initiate business process

• e.g. message, file, web service, devices can start business process

– Synchronous & asynchronous invocation for short & long running transactions

• Multiple options with Process Server, Lombardi, FileNet…

� Integration with WBE to Identify Business Event

– WBE allows multiple MB events to form single business event

– e.g. duplicates => fraud, missing event => SLA not met

� Business Process Connectivity

– Exploit range of MB connectivity to abstract and simplify BPM

– Process focus on WHAT rather than MB focus on WHERE, HOW concerns

– MB receives service request and routes, re-formats, interacts with provider
