Our Problem

• We need our applications to execute business
  logic in many other systems
• Java applications executing Natural
• .NET applications executing Natural
• Natural executing Java or .NET
• Java executing .NET

4
We need SOA!

• Service Oriented Architecture is a strategy in
  which applications rely on services.
• What is a Service?
• Well defined Standardized interface
• Coarse grain, performing a related set of
  business functions, as opposed to a single
  function
• Self-contained without dependencies to other
  services
• loosely coupled so they can be reused in
  contexts not known at design time
• Service consumer Service provider
• Request / Response
• Event Driven
