Speaker Topics - No Fluff Just Stuff

ServiceMix-enabled

An introduction to the premiere JBI environment, ServiceMix, both theoretical and very practical. Starting with a quick introduction to JBI and its aggregate component runtime and synchronous/asynchronous messaging, we'll then use ServiceMix's own Maven plugins to integrate real-world services on the fly.

ServiceMix endeavors to be an enterprise-class integration engine. Since it is JBI-compliant, you can integrate all kinds of enterprise services by simply plugging in JBI-compliant service components in to ServiceMix. WSDL_compliant services, RESTful services, XSLT stylesheets, Drools scripts, BPEL scripts, you name it: there are literally hundreds of open-source and commercial JBI components available today and more on the way. With its well-defined component packaging, this means any such component is automatically ServiceMix-compatible.

This presentation includes demonstrations of deploying JBI components and services in ServiceMix. The presentation also introduces Maven-based development tools for faster JBI development with the IDE of your choice.


About Brian Maso

Brian is a long-time Java architect and real-world engineer, who can credibly wax nostagic about the JDK 1.0 beta days. In the decade since that release, Brian has worked mostly in and around places where web services and the Java VM reign. Clients have included: LeapFrog, Inc., GE Medical Systems, The Motor Cycle Council of America, Cardinal Health (Pyxis Corp. division), the U.S. Dept. of Defense, and many others.

Lately Brian has restricted his professional life to the bounds that his family of four children will allow, venturing away from coding and architecture work only to publish white papers, serve as an independent expert on the JSR 225 (XQJ) Expert Group, and of course share his astounding revelations to No Fluff Just Stuff symposium audiences.

Brian's specific interests include system integration through web services, ESBs and public service networks; and agile system- and unit-specification and testing.

In years past: Brian was the first Tips and Techniques Editor for the Java Developer's Journal; wrote four marginally useful technical books on Java and web development; was the first Java instructor for DevelopMentor, with whom he has delivered thousands of man-days of material to engineers across the maturity spectrum at companies and organizations across North America.
