Data integration in service oriented architectures

摘要

A system, method and program product for transferring structured and unstructured data in a service oriented architecture (SOA) infrastructure. A method is disclosed that includes: receiving a request for a synchronization at a service orchestration engine (SOE), wherein the synchronization includes a transfer of structured meta-data from a first node to a second node and a transfer of unstructured file data from a first file node to a second file node; creating an entry in a routing table to track the synchronization; receiving the structured meta-data at the SOE from the first node and transferring the structured meta-data to the second node; and orchestrating a peer-to-peer data transfer from the first file node to the second file node, including communicating with file handling agents at the first and second file handling nodes.

主权项

1. A service orchestration engine (SOE) for use within a service oriented architecture (SOA) infrastructure, comprising:
at least one computing device, including: a transfer facility that receives structured data to be synchronized with unstructured data from a first node and transfers the structured data to a second node; a file orchestrator that creates a file routing table entry based on the received structured data, wherein the file routing table entry is processed to implement a synchronized transfer of a plurality of file nodes and that orchestrates peer-to-peer unstructured data transfers between the plurality of file nodes in the SOA infrastructure, wherein peer-to-peer unstructured data transfers are synchronized with the transfer of structured data between the first node and the second node, and wherein the SOE includes an error handling and restart capability; and a file routing table for tracking information relating to unstructured data being transfer between a first file node and a second file node.
