SOASchool Certification: Module 8

Today I had my SOASchool.com Module 8 exam for the SOA Certified Architect certification.

Suggested preparation:
  • You have to follow a course or buy the selfstudy kit
  • Read the chapters of the SOA Design Patterns book
  • Read the reader of the selfstudy kit
  • You really need to understand the Patterns and also the use of the patterns in relation to each other

Questions
  • The questions are the same as the other exams
  • Select All That Apply are the difficult ones and there were quite a lot

Next is the final Module 9 for me, and this is the Lab.

The Certification is valuable, because it shows that you know and understand the terms and challenges you face when working
within a Service Oriented Architecture. Or trying to work towards a SOA.
The nice thing about this certification is that it is Vendor Neutral. It does not mention a particular platform. It does however address
the SOA standards out there and that is a good thing of course.

The customers will also recognize this kind of certifications.

  1. I have created a report about my experiences with the SOA Certified Professional (SOACP) of soaschool.com. I think that everyone "doing" SOA should make this certification.

    Here is my report: http://www.kai-waehner.de/blog/2011/02/01/first-hand-report-certification-soa-certified-professional-soacp-of-soaschool/

OSB 10gR3 and SWA and MTOM

This blog is about using soap with attachments and the use of MTOM within the OSB (10gR3). A service is created that accepts a soap with attachment (DocumentService) and translates it to a service that accepts a binary element. MTOM is used for performance reasons for the second. Some notes: * For the use of attachments you need RPC-style document instead of the usual document-style. This due to the fact that the document-style limits a message to a single . * A service can not have both SWA and MTOM within OSB. First a WSDL is setup for the DocumentService: The $attachments variable holds the attachments and the body holds the attachment data. Also other data is stored within the attachment element (see h

"The tree" - See also   my photo page When you are fairly new within the Microservices land, there are a lot of terms fired at you. So also for my own understanding i have made a mindmap. I think it has a good status now, so that i can share it with you. As always feedback is very welcome ! You can download the mindmap here .

Book review: Data Management at Scale (Piethein Strengholt)

 This blog is a review of the book "Data Management at Scale (See also at bol.com ) Data Management is a hot topic nowadays and this book does a fantastic job at adding value to this topic. It is a must read and one of the few technical books I finished reading in a weekend. The book gives a fantastic overview on how to implement a Data Mesh data architecture. The Data Mesh concept is explained by Martin Fowler here . The book is a good mix between conceptual and implementation architecture level. It gives a lot of examples of how this architecture at scale can work, for both small and big companies. It is practical and I used it to implement it at one of my customers. The book describes an architecture in which the focus is on the DIAL (Data- and Integration Access Layer).  On a high level the book covers the following topics: The key principles for data management at scale - Domain-Driven Design  - Domain Data Stores - Meta data management Ready Data Store The concept of servin
