More about Parasoft BPEL Maestro...
Both efficiency considerations and changing market
conditions are driving the need for business process
integration. Requirements of flexibility, interoperability,
and cost-effectiveness point to service-oriented
architectures based on Web service standards. These
services need to be orchestrated to achieve business
goals and BPEL provides the standard for this orchestration.
BPEL processes need to be executed by a runtime
engine that supports a number of requirements, including
native support for Web service standards as well
as asynchronous messaging, process persistence,
and transactional models consistent with long-term
processes.
Parasoft BPEL Maestro satisfies these requirements
by providing a unique set of technologies, and thus
offers companies unprecedented flexibility when
it comes to driving Web Services oriented business
processes. Parasoft BPEL Maestro consists of a development
toolkit and a BPEL engine.
Toolkit
The toolkit, which currently operates as a plugin
within the Eclipse framework, facilitates the development
of pure BPEL processes. It is extremely BPEL oriented
and BPEL aware.
The toolkit's development environment offers three
primary views: UML, DOM (tree view) and Serialized
XML. The toolkit offers BPEL debugging with the
capability to remotely debug BPEL processes, a feature
that can also be applied during runtime.
The toolkit's management capabilities include the
ability to deploy and undeploy servers and engines.
The environment allows for centralized management
and monitoring of the servers and distributed engines.
The next version of BPEL Maestro will continue to
evolve these capabilities.
Engine
The Parasoft BPEL Maestro Engine executes BPEL processes.
Parasoft took a pure BPEL approach for BPEL execution.
The engine contains no Java extensions or .NET extensions;
execution is based on BPEL and WSDL, with the WSDL
approach to WS.
The deployable artifacts from the engine include
BPEL processes, WSDLs, and schemas. Meta information
is available to employ persistent processes in conjunction
with a relational database. The models of invocation
(messaging models) include traditional HTTP/HTTP,
local Java, JMS, EJB, JCA, asynchronous and synchronous.
Transactions and business activities are both supported
at the atomic level.
