 Connectivity and Interoperability Service

 Represents the backbone used by all IT System in the

enterprise to communicate with each other.
◦ The ESB (Enterprise Service Bus) is a communication
backbone between applications and transport requests
represented by messages (typically, with XML-based
formats today) between service consumers and service
providers
◦ Message and Web Services Gateway, This component uses
key capabilities such as mediation and security of the
Interoperability and interconnectivity Component to
implement tasks such as routing and management services
 Directory and Security Services
 Maintains authentication credential for user and security
policies, including rules and access control lists.
 Operational Applications
Multiple design point addressed by operational application.
designed to make the processing of the daily transactional
workload efficient and to guarantee the required integrity of the
transactional data

◦ High Level Description

 An operational system is used to process the daily
transactional load of an organization and is frequently
called a transactional system.
 Concurrency in terms of addressing a high number of
users who are concurrently using the system.
 Performance regarding transaction response time or end-
user response time.
 Operational Applications
Multiple design point addressed by operational application.
designed to make the processing of the daily transactional
workload efficient and to guarantee the required integrity of the
transactional data

◦ High Level Description

 Throughput regarding the transaction rate, meaning the
number of transactions per time interval.
 Scalability to enable growth to be addressed in terms of
allowing more users to interface with the operational
system, for example.
 Continuous availability by implementing high availability
and continuous operations to address unplanned and
planned outages.
 Security, delivering data protection, authentication, and
authorization either with built in capabilities or by
interfacing with external providers.
 Operational Applications
Multiple design point addressed by operational application.
designed to make the processing of the daily transactional
workload efficient and to guarantee the required integrity of the
transactional data

◦ Interfaces
 Using the Connectivity and Interoperability Services (such
as the ESB), Operational Systems do interface with other
systems
 Mashup Hub
A mashup is considered a lightweight web application created by
combining information from a set of heterogeneous sources or
other capabilities from various existing sources to deliver new
insight
