Sybase WorkSpace Use Case

• A unified application development environment for
  all development tasks today and tomorrow.

Application Development Evolution
Market Dynamics
Whats the Same

• Need for Rapid Application Development
• Complexity is still increasing
• Programmer productivity still defined by IDE and
  language support

Whats Different

• Modeling has been introduced and needs to be
  integrated
• Trend reversal tools getting closer to servers
  (development and deployment are linked)
• IDE market has converged (.NET Eclipse will
  win)
• .NET and Eclipse will continue to have
  independent vendors offering plug-ins that are
  standardized on these platforms
• A whole new class of applications have emerged
  beyond transactional applications
• A need to separate visual display, business logic
  and data access
• Beyond tasks to services

Application Development Evolution
Mandate for the New IDE
2005 Application development for many styles of
development
Visual IDE
Language for NVOs
Rich Data Extraction Visualization
NEW Sophisticated Life Cycle Management
Why Increased Complexity
NEW Integrated Modeling
Why Disciplined Development
NEW Tie-in with Server Products
Why Development Deployment
NEW Standards-based (.NET or Eclipse/Java)
Why Ease of Learning
NEW Differentiating Features
Why Advantages for Server
Goal Make it easy to develop complex applications

Sybase Development Tooling Strategy
PowerBuilder Family
NEW!! WorkSpace

• Target the Eclipse/Java developer community
• Address broader range of application classes
  ability to integrate
• Service Driven
• Composite
• Event Driven
• Mobile
• Modeling

• PowerBuilder for transactional and n-tier
• PocketBuilder for rich client/smart client mobile
  applications
• Evolve towards tighter integrations with .NET

PowerDesigner

• Independent modeling tool
• Data and Enterprise
• Fully integrated into PB/.NET and WorkSpace

Sybase WorkSpace, a unified application
development environment, is the first designed to
bridge the gap between the vision of a
service-oriented architecture (SOA) and the
reality of what traditional development tools can
deliver.

Orchestration

• Orchestration is another term for creating
  Business Process where you orchestrate its logic
  using service artifacts.
• WS generates equivalent BPEL which is an industry
  standard execution artifact for BPs.
• However, in Workspace since the objective is to
  hide the complexity, we do not show it openly but
  people interested in looking at generated BPEL,
  can do so by opening up the built package file
  (not package definition).
• The design-time (WorkSpace) uses BPMN notation to
  diagram a BP and then internally we map BPMN to
  BPEL during packaging.
• BPEL - Business Process Execution Language - is a
  standard for describing process execution logic
  which is converted to runtime artifacts when
  deployed to a BPEL engine (such as UO).
• BPMN - Business Process Model Notation - is a BP
  diagram notation standard for putting together a
  BP (pure UI). WorkSpace BP Design time view is
  BPMN based. Some vendors such as IBM use BPEL
  based notations directly in their design tooling
  for BP diagramming.
