Key Highlights
Global enterprises face the never-ending business challenge of maximizing investments on their information assets and business processes. Integrating applications and core business processes, such as order provisioning and supply procurement, often requires multiple applications running on multiple operating systems across multiple communication protocols. Add to that the additional task of connecting to your partners' and customers' systems, in an environment where both the applications and the business processes that drive them are constantly changing. The Sun Open Net Environment Integration Platform provides a comprehensive solution for integration needs by offering products for enterprise application integration (EAI), business-to-business (B2B) spaces, and Message-Oriented Middleware (MOM). Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition software focuses on the enterprise application integration needs. The Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition 3.1 provides a unified architecture and standards-based environment for creating integrated business solutions. Any custom, packaged, or legacy system can readily participate in the execution of automated business processes across the multiple and distributed heterogeneous environments that make up a company's information systems. Sun ONE Integration Server EAI EditionSun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition software is the integration solution for the Sun Java System (formerly Sun ONE) architecture - the hub that brings together a new generation of Web services. The Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition now includes Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) support, a remote procedure call form of the eXtensible Markup Language (XML) that invokes a call on another application using SOAP and the Web. It allows different parts of the enterprise to exchange structured information over the Web independent of the types of systems or application platforms. SOAP functions as a wire protocol to connect Web services to multiple Web portals.Flexible Business Process ManagementIntegrating systems, data, and applications requires business process management to create, deploy, and manage new business solutions. Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition software provides support for both fully automated process flow as well as human interaction workflow. It enables an entirely new class of flexible enterprise applications that can incorporate existing components into powerful, graphically defined process definitions.Business processes are defined with graphical, drag-and-drop tools that enable business analysts and developers to model a process at the business object level - independent of the components that perform each task. The process engine (the business process management tool) of the Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition connects the activities that control and manage the entire business process. This clear separation of business process logic from application and data logic can enable faster time to market because the business process itself can be changed quickly to adapt to competitive business conditions - without ever touching the data. Message TransportThe message transport for the Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition is a two-way conduit for XML/SOAP-based data messages sent over HTTP/ HTTPS or the Java Message Service (JMS) API, a publish-and-subscribe solution with persistent message queuing. The Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition comes bundled with Sun ONE Message Queue software, a JMS implementation.ebXML MessagingThe Sun ONE Integration Server Secure Trading Agent is bundled with the Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition. It is a Web services-based solution for exchanging B2B documents securely and reliably with trading partners. The Sun ONE Integration Server Secure Trading Agent supports for electronic business XML (ebXML) messaging, a cutting-edge technology for Web-services enablement and e-business collaboration that provides secure and reliable messaging between trading partners.Data TransformationSun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition software contains an eXtensible Stylesheet Language (XSL) processor that utilizes eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT, a Web standard) to transform XML documents. This process translates data elements among multiple dialects of XML.Intelligent RoutingThe flexibility of the Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition intelligent routing function enables customers to pick out arbitrary elements from the exchanged document and make routing decisions based upon the content. And unlike other approaches, there is no need to prespecify header fields. The primary benefit is that the proxy - or message transport - defines how the message is going to be routed.AdaptersSun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition software offers a number of technology adapters, including:
The Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition contains component support for Java technology, COM/ActiveX, CORBA, and C++. Custom Adapters The vast majority of integration connections are to legacy and custom applications. The Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition facilitates the rapid development of robust connectors by bundling - the Sun ONE Connector Builder 2.0. The Sun ONE Connector Builder is a powerful software tool for building Web services-ready connectors to integrate Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE?) and Web applications with enterprise systems and legacy applications. Mainframe Adapters The Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition is available in a version that runs on OS/390 and supports common mainframe APIs such as WebSphere MQ (formerly MQSeries), DB2, CICS, and IMS. Packaged Systems Adapters With the Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition's XML-based messaging backbone, any application with an XML interface can quickly plug right into it and participate in business processes by translating between an application's API and XML. With Sun ONE XML adapters, packaged systems can be "speaking" XML in no time. These small footprint Java, C, or compiled C++ routines use a simple XML schema and contain no application logic, yet remain flexible enough to develop it if desired. The routines use XML document handling and interpretation, replication, exception handling, and management agents with logging and performance instrumentation. Adapters that have been built to leverage the Sun ONE Integration Server EAI Edition include:
