Abstract
Service-oriented architecture (SOA) enablement allows one to use today's technology to improve the ROI from yesterday's applications. SOA enablement is a great way to start the process of migrating your client/server applications. Today, with cooperative technologies such as SOA and the cloud, there are more options than ever for organizations to quickly respond to the needs of users and tie into their client/server applications. Using SOA enablement, one can quickly and painlessly get client/server application on the cloud. This chapter delves into the LegaSuite solution to SOA-enable client/server applications. The LegaSuite Workbench is a GUI-based, coding-free solution driven by industry standards such as state diagrams, XML, and, Web services. The LegaSuite Windows Integration Engine is a scalable, performant solution that can be deployed in a private or hybrid cloud. The LegaSuite Windows Integration Engine does not use screen scraping. Because LegaSuite for Windows is accessing controls, there is no need to rely on using text recognition or other techniques that use a screenshot of an application as their starting point. For example, a Windows application can be minimized and still successfully driven by the LegaSuite Windows Integration Engine. The case studies at the end of the chapter demonstrate how SOA enablement can allow one to integrate core client/server applications with the SOA initiatives, provide a unified view of all available information across different client/server applications, preserve the business logic and extend the life of applications, and consolidate numerous manual workflows into one automated workflow.
