PATTERN-BASED SERVICE BUS ARCHITECTURE USING ACTIVITY-ORIENTED SERVICES

摘要

A pattern-based service bus includes a plurality of bus endpoints, a bus-hosted service, and a bus storage component. The plurality of bus endpoints interact with bus participants external to the pattern-based service bus, wherein each of the plurality of bus endpoints are identified by a unique address, and type of interaction to be provided by the bus endpoint. The bus-hosted service implements patterns that define allowed interactions between each of the plurality of bus endpoints and the bus-hosted service, wherein the implemented patterns can be utilized by the plurality of bus endpoints to interact with the bus-hosted service. The bus storage component interacts with the bus-hosted service to store information relevant to operation of the pattern-based service bus.

1. A pattern-based service bus comprising:
a plurality of bus endpoints that interacts with bus participants external to the pattern-based service bus, each of the plurality of bus endpoints identified by a unique address, and type of interaction to be provided by the bus endpoint; a bus-hosted service that implements patterns that define allowed interactions between each of the plurality of bus endpoints and the bus-hosted service, wherein the implemented patterns can be utilized by the plurality of bus endpoints to interact with the bus-hosted service and wherein the bus endpoints interact with the bus-hosted service without knowledge of one another; a bus storage component that interacts with the bus-hosted service to store information relevant to operation of the pattern-based service bus; and an access tool that provides an interface to allow an outside system and/or user to interact with the bus-hosted service and/or the bus storage component.
