3 Maritime Cargo Processing: Tackling SOA Performance Management Using CA Wily APM
Abstract
Like many enterprises, Maritime Cargo Processing (MCP)
has turned to Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to
improve the flexibility and capability of their online
applications. However, this transition to SOA resulted in
more application infrastructure to manage (Oracle
Service Bus and Web Services) and a lack of visibility into
more complex transactions. In this session, CA Wily will
provide an in-depth review of the SOA Performance
Management capabilities of APM r8.1 and MCP will share
case studies and best practices on using CA Wily to meet
their SOA Performance Management challenges.

Key Observations on SOA
>The next generation of composite applications
 New technology layer on top of existing infrastructure
>SOA is an architectural style; not a technology silo
 Services layer must be managed in the context of business transactions
passing through it
>Customer starting points vary
 Most environments are hybrid extensions of existing technology
>Loose coupling increases complexity
 Flexibility and reuse but reduced visibility; many moving parts
>SOA projects are moving from pilot to production
 Production requirements becoming mainstream
