BEA Standards Helps Make Service-Oriented Architecture A Reality
BEA Systems is committed to creating standards and technologies that are
designed to help developers create service oriented architectures (SOA) today.
BEA combines industry standards with its industry-leading, unified,
standards-based infrastructure and a simplified framework designed to help
customers build SOAs to create a shared-services environment. BEA, always a
driver of innovation, has created and co-authored standards and technologies
designed to help reduce computing costs and complexity while helping to
increase developer productivity.
Recent milestones which demonstrate the BEA commitment to the standards and
open source communities include:
- WS-Addressing -- Working in conjunction with IBM Corp, Microsoft Corp, SAP
AG and Sun Microsystems Inc, BEA published WS-Addressing, a new Web services
specification designed to help enable organizations to build reliable and
interoperable Web services applications by defining a standard mechanism for
identifying and exchanging Web services messages between multiple end points.
The specification is available at:
http://dev2dev.bea.com/technologies/webservices/standards.jsp.
- Availability of Apache Beehive code -- Apache Beehive is the industry's
first easy-to-use, cross-container, open-source application framework for more
easily and quickly building service-oriented architectures and enterprise Java
applications. Apache Beehive is now available at:
http://incubator.apache.org/beehive/.
- Acceptance of Apache XMLBeans -- The incubation project for XMLBeans,
contributed by BEA as an open-source project designed to help simplify Java
and XML development, has received approval as an official project of the
Apache Software Foundation. Apache XML Beans is available at:
http://xmlbeans.apache.org/.
- WS-Eventing -- This specification provides a way of communicating events
generated within Web services. Originally authored by BEA, Microsoft and
TIBCO, the specification is being updated with changes and improvements from
the workshop process with two new co-authors, CA and IBM. The specification is
available at: http://dev2dev.bea.com/technologies/webservices/standards.jsp.
