Migration of a Chosen Architectural Pattern to Service Oriented ...

Chapter 5. Guidelines 133Group 3 may be encapsulated in services but there is no implementationreferring to those rules in code, consequently no rules validation serviceswill be created during migration .Output: No services are implemented in case of this project. If a RuleCentralisation related code would exist; it would be wrapped into a basicservice as it is done in the previous guideline.9. Provide inventory endpoints to basic servicesApplied SOA pattern: Inventory EndpointApplication: Inventories in TRWAM project consists of only one servicedue to a small size of the project. Introduction of an additional service(inventory endpoint) that will be a facade to the existing services is simplyredundant. Such introduction would unnecessary complex the process andintroduce overhead.Output: No new services are implemented in case of this project. Implementationof an inventory endpoint in case of this system makes no sensebecause inventories have only one service. The endpoint service would haveexactly the same interface.10. Identify all processes within the legacy applicationApplied SOA pattern: Process AbstractionApplication: MVC architectural pattern has one component that takes careabout Business Process Logic within application - Controller. In case ofTRWAM project, Controller is not implemented properly what was noticedin Entity Abstraction part. This is not the only problem of Controllerin TRWAM project. TRWAM’s Controller contains also code responsiblefor maintenance of temporary assets. Temporary asset is an asset thatwas defined by a user but was not persisted yet. Due to wrong Controllerimplementation, the flow of process has been distorted. The process isartificially divided into two separated processes. The fist process createsidentification numbers for temporary assets. The number is based on actualmaximum value of asset primary key and requires additional computing.Computation of a new number for temporary assets does not make sense atall. The assets simple may not be persisted and all the computation effort iswasted. The second process is meant to persist temporary assets. A properwork flow of the process should be following:(a) Create an asset.
