SOA Software Delivers Comprehensive SOA Infrastructure

SOA Software, a provider of comprehensive SOA and Web services governance, management, security, and mediation solutions, announced the availability of a comprehensive SOA infrastructure solution for IBM WebSphere. The company now delivers Service Manager agents and delegates for WebSphere Application Server (WAS) and WebSphere Business Integration Message Broker (WBI). This ensures that applications created using WBI and applications deployed in WAS can enforce and implement security, reliability, and interoperability policies as part of a comprehensive governance solution. SOA Software’s SOLA product adds the ability for WebSphere applications to consume mainframe transactions as Web services.

SOA Software’s products that integrate with WebSphere include Service Manager and Workbench. Service Manager ensures the security, reliability, performance and interoperability of WebSphere applications. Workbench governs WebSphere services, managing their lifecycle and ensuring that they are appropriate, approved and comply with policies. The agents and delegates for WAS and WBI extend the infrastructure solution to provide first-mile and last-mile security, management, and interoperability capabilities to WAS and WBI applications.
WebSphere customers using Workbench and Service Manager together can define and govern run-time policies in Workbench that are automatically enforced in WebSphere by Service Manager. Service Manager will generate policy compliance manifests that Workbench uses to provide an audit trial to ensure that the defined policies are enforced at run-time.
“Organizations using WebSphere to build applications in an SOA will use Service Manager to ensure the security, reliability, interoperability and performance of their services,” said Roberto Medrano, executive vice president of SOA Software. “Adding Workbench to the mix, IBM customers will take big strides towards a governed, value generating SOA.”
