Developers
Today’s developers are charged with:
- Their own productivity
- Re-use
- Applying standard practices and methods.
The relevance of the SOA Gateway:
- One requirement - knowledge of a web server
- Once the interface has been used to provide access to one data
source, an identical interface is exposed for all data sources
- Allows developers focus on business application development
rather that IT plumbing.
Relevant SOA Gateway features:
- Data available in a standard, human readable form. Developers
only need to understand the meaning of the actual fields that
are made available
- The SOA Gateway implements a standard set of interfaces to
access each type of resource. A database resource has a number
of interfaces while a program resource will only have one. Once
each type of resource has been used, it is a simple exercise to
reuse them again and again with other data sources
- URL-based access: Once the developer is given the URL for the
configured resource, they can see what data is available to them
and how to access or update this data.
