www.peaksolutions.com AquaLogic ESB Design and Integration (3 Days) Audience Course Abstract Designed for developers, project leaders, IT architects and other technical individuals that need to understand how to develop and implement AquaLogic ESB components in an event-driven architecture. This course will provide each participant with an in-depth and comprehensive understanding of the BEA Service-Oriented Architecture and event-driven environment using the AquaLogic Service Bus. This course will focus on the concept of ESB in an SOA environment, SOA components, depict the role of the AquaLogic Service Bus, use of different adapters, integration with IDEs, building publisher and subscriber applications, creation of routing rules, use of business rules and rules engines, using the Filter Expression, creation of transformation maps, managing inbound and outbound SOAP messages, XSLT mapping and transformation, message mediation, protocol transformation, integration of BAM components and defining different ESB application patterns. All aspects of this class will incorporate the specific architecture of the BEA SOA Suite to illustrate the implementation of these techniques. Objectives Upon conclusion, each participant will have acquired these skills: Illustrate the usage of business integration patterns Understand the role of AquaLogic in SOA architecture Installation and Configuration of AquaLogic Service Bus Discuss role of ESB deployed components (Routing, Rules, Transformation, Adapters and Mediation) Illustrate the different types of supported Adapters Depict the integration of the AquaLogic Service Bus with Web services and BPEL models Demonstrate the steps towards SOA development Illustrate the use of Message Flows in AquaLogic Explore the significance of routing rules Demonstrate the use of the Filter Expression Understand the role of domain value Maps Illustrate the different ESB patterns (Point-to-Point, Content Routing and Canonical) Depict the integration of IDE toolsets and AquaLogic Understand the deployment of components to the ESB Definition and usage of business rules and a rules engine Demonstrate different partner interactions (SOAP, Adapter, JSM, etc) Understand the role of Business Analytical Modeling (BAM) Prerequisites Each student should have an understanding of application development and J2EE web-based development methodologies.
