SOA Governance to API Management - a pragmatic approach

Service Oriented Architecture or SOA has been one of the turning points of enterprise IT architecture where it provided the clarity and the order that was missing initially. Then it evolved through the SOA governance to become a well managed and governed IT ecosystem. Once the APIs started to dominate the enterprise architecture, API management has come to the forefront with SOA governance fading away. It didn't happen overnight and there are a lot more to organizations still trying to figure out what is best for them.

  2. System integration services involve the process of connecting various disparate IT systems and software applications within an organization to ensure seamless communication and data sharing. This involves integrating hardware, software, networking technologies, and other components to create a cohesive and efficient system. System integration aims to streamline operations, improve productivity, enhance data accuracy, and facilitate better decision-making by enabling different systems to work together harmoniously. It often involves tasks such as data migration, application integration, API development, and customization to meet specific business needs. Overall, system integration services play a crucial role in optimizing organizational processes and leveraging technology to achieve strategic goals.

How to protect your APIs with self contained access token (JWT) using WSO2 API Manager and WSO2 Identity Server

In a typical enterprise information system, there is a high chance that people will use different types of systems built by different vendors to implement certain types of functionalities. The APIs might be hosted in an API Manager developed by vendor A and the user management can be implemented using a different vendor (vendor B). In this type of a situation, one system will not be able to directly contact the other system but they want to use both systems in tandem. Self-contained access tokens are used in these types of situations where applications can get the token from one system and use that in another system to access protected resources. In this scenario, the second system does not need to make a contact to the first system over the network to validate the user information since the token is self-contained and it has relevant details about the user. This will improve the token processing time significantly since it completely removes the network interaction. The below fig...

WSO2 ESB creating a response for a "GET" request

When you are creating REST APIs with WSO2 ESB, you may need to send some response message back to the user when something goes wrong. In this kind of scenario, you can create a payload inside the ESB and send it back. For doing this, you can use the below configuration. <api xmlns=" http://ws.apache.org/ ns/synapse " name="LoopBackProxy" context="/loopback">    <resource methods="POST GET">       <inSequence>          <property name="NO_ENTITY_BODY" scope="axis2" action="remove"></property>          <log level="full"></log>          <payloadFactory media-type="xml">             <format>                <m:messageBeforeLoopBack xmlns:m=" http://services...

WSO2 ESB tuning performance with threads

I have written several blog posts explaining the internal behavior of the ESB and the threads created inside ESB. With this post, I am talking about the effect of threads in the WSO2 ESB and how to tune up threads for optimal performance. You can refer [1] and [2] to understand the threads created within the ESB. [1] http://soatutorials.blogspot.com/2015/05/understanding-threads-created-in-wso2.html [2] http://wso2.com/library/articles/2012/03/importance-performance-wso2-esb-handles-nonobvious/ Within this blog post, I am discussing about the "worker threads" which are used for processing the data within the WSO2 ESB. There are 2 types of worker threads created when you start sending the requests to the server 1) Server Worker/Client Worker Threads 2) Mediator Worker (Synapse-Worker) Threads Server Worker/Client Worker Threads These set of threads will be used to process all the requests/responses coming to the ESB server. ServerWorker Threads will be used to pr...
