Real-world Integration case studies and patterns part 2
Building 3rd party integrations require deep understanding of the business problems. You would not want to reinvent the wheel to solve common issues. In this talk we will explore different case studies with patterns which helps solves real world issues. We will start with exploring SOA patterns like Service host, Active service, Transactional service, Workflodize, Edge component. After that we will look at patterns related to performance, scalability and availability like Decoupled invocation, parallel pipelines, Gridable service, Service instance, Virtual Endpoint, and Service watchdog.
Lastly we will dive into security and manageability patterns like Secured message, Secured Infrastructure, Service firewall, Identify provider, and Service Monitor. Message exchange patterns include Request/Reply, Request/Reaction, Inversion of Communications and Saga. In Service consumer pattern we will explore Reservation, Composite front end and client/Server/Service. In Service integration patterns we will explore Service bus, Orchestration, Aggregated reporting. Lastly we will examine Service anti-patterns like Knot, Nanoservice, Transactional integration.
