Chapter 2Introduction to eInsight Enterprise ServiceBusThis chapter provides an introduction to the eInsight Enterprise Service Bus (eInsightESB) application.2.1Overview of eInsight ESBeInsight Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is a streamlined, distributed integration platformthat combines Web services support, transformation and content-based routing.eInsight ESB is a rapidly implemented, limited edition version of eInsight BusinessProcess Manager.The Enterprise Service Bus edition provides a lower-cost alternative to deployintegrated business processes as composite applications built on a services-orientedarchitecture. eInsight Enterprise Service Bus is sold standalone and supportsSeeBeyond applications and eWay Intelligent Adapters, which can be purchasedseparately as plug-ins to eInsight ESB to access external applications and data.2.1.1.SeeBeyond ICAN Suite IntegrationeInsight ESB is tightly integrated with the SeeBeyond Integrated CompositeApplication Network Suite and is compatible with the other ICAN suite products(also, see Figure 1), including:! eVision Studio! ePortal Composer! eBAM Studio! eTL Integrator! eView Studio! SeeBeyond eWay Intelligent AdaptersThus, as an organization's integration needs grow over time, they can leverage andreuse eInsight ESB integration components they have already deployed.eInsight Enterprise Service Bus User’s Guide14SeeBeyond Proprietary and Confidential
Chapter 2Introduction to eInsight Enterprise Service BusSection 2.1Overview of eInsight ESBFigure 1 eInsight ESB and the ICAN Suite2.1.2.eInsight ESB ArchitectureeInsight ESB speeds the design and deployment of business processes by providing anopen process modeling environment using BPMN (Business Process ModelingNotation) for the graphical notation of a business process and by automaticallygenerating the BPEL4WS code needed to implement the business process across all ofthe participating Web services (e.g. for applications and business partners).Business analysts drag and drop components into the process model and then specifythe additional flow control and business rules that manage what services get called atwhat time. eInsight supports importing and exporting BPEL4WS to share processeswith 3rd party tools.The technologies that carry out eInsight ESB business process functions are entirelybased on industry standards. eInsight ESB uses the following standards:! Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN), from the Business ProcessManagement Initiative (BPMI) standards body, provides a standard graphical viewfor Business Process Execution Language for Web Services (WSBPEL).! Web Services Business Process Execution Language (WSBPEL) is the underlyingcode generated when creating a business process.! Web Services Description Language (WSDL) is an XML-based language used todefine Web services and describe how to access them.eInsight Enterprise Service Bus User’s Guide15SeeBeyond Proprietary and Confidential
Chapter 2Introduction to eInsight Enterprise Service BusSection 2.1Overview of eInsight ESB! J2EE Connector Architecture (JCA) provides a mechanism to access externalapplications and data. The JCA engine is implemented as a standard JCA 1.5module and it plugs into the SeeBeyond Integration Server.Automated Web Services Description and DiscoveryAll eInsight business processes are automatically described using generated WSDL,and these services are available for internal and external consumption usingSeeBeyond's centralized UDDI registry. This means that configuring an activity withina larger business process to consume a Web service is as simple as selecting the Webservice you want to call in the internal or external UDDI registry using the SeeBeyondUDDI Browser.2.1.3.Business Process Modeling and DesignYou can use eInsight ESB to streamline operations by creating business logic that helpsyou reach outward to include customers and trading partners. Using eInsight ESB toimplement business process management removes inefficiencies by orchestrating aunified work flow. This flow can include multiple systems/users, therefore extendingto customers.eInsight ESB allows you to model the business processes that your department or evenyour entire company performs on a regular basis. The tools provided allow for variousscenarios and events that may take place in your process.2.1.4.Business Process DesignerThe Business Process Designer serves as the front-end design tool used to create avisualization of your business workflow and increase understanding of the businessprocesses involved. As the business user, you are able to integrate logic into thebusiness process. The Business Process Designer includes the following major areas:! Enterprise Explorer - Displays a hierarchical representation of all the businessprocess models and related components. This view shows you what is currentlybeing displayed on the modeling canvas.! Business Rule Designer - Allows you to graphically configure relationshipsbetween Input and Output Attributes.2.1.5.Design Phase OverviewThe basic steps that you will perform to design a business process model are as follows:1 Plan and design a model that represents a business process taking place in yourcompany.2 Set up an Project and related components necessary to your business processmodel.3 Create the new business process model in the eInsight Business Process Designer,using activities, links, decision and exception handling logic, and any otherelements that express the actual business process.eInsight Enterprise Service Bus User’s Guide16SeeBeyond Proprietary and Confidential
Chapter 2Introduction to eInsight Enterprise Service BusSection 2.1Overview of eInsight ESB4 Validate, generate and save the business process code to the Repository, wherebusiness processes configuration and deployment information is stored.5 Create a Connectivity Map to configure the relationship between your components.6 Select or create an Environment where your business process will run.7 Select or create a Deployment Profile and activate it to complete the deploymentprocess.2.1.6.Runtime Phase OverviewOnce all of the design phase tasks are complete and the system is running, you canmonitor and manage business process activity and the overall Project with theEnterprise Manager.In the runtime phase, processes are coordinated that enable the execution of businessprocesses, activities and tasks. Runtime phase tasks:! Receive messages that instantiate business process instances.! Write monitoring, persistence and recoverability data to a database.eInsight ESB DatabaseeInsight ESB components connect to a database to provide:! Persistence - Instance data is written to a database table to ensure that data is ableto persist in the system.! Recoverability - Using the database allows you to recover data from the last state ofconsistency.! Monitoring - Instance data is written to database tables and then read by theEnterprise Manager to provide current and historical system information.2.1.7.Real-Time Business Process Monitoring and AlertingOnce the automated business processes are up and running, the Enterprise Managerprovides a dashboard delivering instant visibility into the state of each business processactivity. This allows organizations to monitor all aspects of both internal processes andthose involving B2B trading communities. Processes are normally monitored forexceptions using business rules that alert managers as needed. This proactive alertingenables managers to respond instantly to business events such as increased customerdemand, inventory shortages and quality problems.2.1.8.Summary of FeatureseInsight ESB provides the following additional features:! Provides reuse and scalable ROI for organizations that want to deploy integratedbusiness processeseInsight Enterprise Service Bus User’s Guide17SeeBeyond Proprietary and Confidential

Chapter 3Designing Business Process ModelsSection 3.1OverviewChapter 3Designing Business Process ModelsYou can use the Business Process Designer to configure the components depicted byeach activity in your business process models. This chapter provides the backgroundinformation you need to create and understand business process models.3.1OverviewTopics in this chapter are:! “Building a Business Process Model” on page 19! “Using the Business Process Designer” on page 21! “Modeling Elements” on page 223.2Building a Business Process ModelA business process is a collection of actions that take place in your company, revolvingaround a specific business practice. These processes can involve a variety ofparticipants and may include internal and external computer systems or employees. Inthe Business Process Designer, you create a graphical representation of the businessprocess called a business process model.A business process modeled in the Business Process Designer may look something likeFigure 2.Figure 2 Sample Business Process ModeleInsight Enterprise Service Bus User’s Guide19SeeBeyond Proprietary and Confidential
Chapter 3Designing Business Process ModelsSection 3.2Building a Business Process ModelAdd a Business Process to your ProjectAdding a business process to your Project provides an empty modeling canvas for youto work with and allows you to name the business process. Before you create a modelof your business process, you must add a new business process to your project.1 From the Enterprise Explorer pane, right-click on a Project.2 Select New and Business Process from the context menu.3 Enter a new name for your Business Process.Note: See the eGate Integrator User’s Guide for more information about creating a newProject.3.2.1.Modeling a Business ProcessTo model a business process, drag and drop modeling elements on the Business ProcessDesigner, and then link these components to reflect the logical flow of the businessprocess. The Business Process Designer provides the tools you need to quickly developbusiness process models, including graphic editing tools to help you adjust, size, andalign model components.Business Process DesignerOnce you create a new business process, you will build your model in the BusinessProcess Designer (as shown in Figure 3). The Business Process Designer is the area inthe Enterprise Designer where you view, create, and edit your business process models.You can also drag and drop many other ICAN component operations from the ProjectExplorer directly onto the Business Process Designer or an activity. Some of the othercomponent operations that you can use in a business process include:! File eWay: Read and Write operations! Object Type Definition (OTD): Marshal and Unmarshal operations! Java Collaboration Definition operations! eVision Pages and PageFlowsCreate a Business Process ModelBegin designing your business process model by dragging and dropping modelingelements onto the Business Process Designer from the toolbar.The Start and End Activity appear on the blank Business Process Designer, by default.There is only one starting point for any business process model.
