Industry News Desk Extending SOA to Cloud Computing
WSO2 launches platform for extending SOA to Cloud Computing, enables fast, secure cloud services
By: Liz McMillan
Dec. 7, 2009 02:45 PM
WSO2, the open source SOA company, today announced the launch of the WSO2 Cloud Platform. Available today, the new WSO2 Cloud Platform features a family of WSO2 Cloud Virtual Machines; WSO2 Cloud Connectors for enabling fast, secure cloud services; and the multi-tenant WSO2 Governance-as-a-Service. TIBCO Software is also working to offer a similar SOA platform in the Cloud but TIBCO does not have concrete details yet. All WSO2 Cloud Platform services are based on open software standards, and they support all applicable interoperable protocols, as well as relevant open data standards. Additionally, they allow users to take complete control of their data, ensuring that enterprises can protect and preserve their information.
WSO2 Cloud Virtual Machines
WSO2 Cloud Connectors WSO2 Cloud Services Gateway (CSG) provides a managed, secure gateway between the cloud and services in the enterprise, effectively creating a secure tunnel into the enterprise from the cloud. Applications of WSO2 CSG include protecting APIs, providing a firewall for services, ensuring private data access, outsourcing computations, and offering security verification. It is available as a WSO2 Cloud Virtual Machine, which makes it easy to publish services from any WSO2 SOA middleware in the enterprise. As with other WSO2 Cloud Virtual Machines, the WSO2 CSG is charged on a pay-as-you-go basis. WSO2 also is offering a public WSO2 Cloud Service Gateway available at no cost to developers who want to experiment with WSO2 CSG. WSO2 Service Accelerator decouples quality of service (QOS) processing from back-end services and plugs the services into a layer that can process messages under high throughput. WSO2 Service Accelerator is powered by the WSO2 Web Services Framework for C++ (WSF/C++), which takes advantage of the C++ language’s ability to run anywhere from 5 to 15 times faster than Java. It is available as a WSO2 Cloud Virtual Machine for both public and private cloud deployment. WSO2 Governance-as-a-Service WSO2 Governance-as-a-Service is a structured registry and repository with comprehensive SOA lifecycle management support that lets users define custom lifecycles with conditional state transitions. It offers well-defined extension points for a flexible, plug-in approach to linking resources and allowing users to encode their own governance rules and polices. A governance dashboard provides runtime and design-time monitoring, while eventing and notification support is available through the application of business rules. Together with its socially enabled interface, these capabilities facilitate collaboration in the management, ranking and reuse of enterprise Web services — locally or in the cloud. WSO2 Governance-as-a-Service is the first in a complete family of “*-as-a-Service” solutions that WSO2 plans to launch over the next several months. WSO2 Governance-as-a-Service was built with multi-tenant enabled versions of the core WSO2 Carbon framework — used for deploying, running and managing services on the WSO2 Carbon componentized SOA platform — and the WSO2 Governance Registry product. Once the entire WSO2 Carbon platform is multi-tenant enabled, the resulting WSO2 Cloud Middleware platform will allow anyone to build multi-tenant, cloud-based services and applications using WSO2 SOA middleware technology. The full middleware platform will be rolled out in the course of the next few months with support for data management, identity and security management, service management, user interfaces and portals, billing and metering, and management and monitoring.
