  4. Part 1 Where to Start with WSI? Contents: • Before Where, a bit of Why? • Where in terms of Scope? • Where on the Network? • Q & A

  5. EVERY major application (ERP, DB, app server, mail and messaging, desktop GUI, OS, programming language, etc.) is being retooled for web services The implications are (choose one):  Enormous  Significant  So So  Trivial EVERY major vendor is betting on web services Before Where, a bit of Why?  and  If   then 

  6. But also Why Not! • Security Issues • Lack of mature authentication and permissioning • Still evolving standards • Semantic and Namespace Issues • Dynamic marketplaces and relationships are still a LONG way away. • Novelty • New technology • Questions of scalability, robustness, IP, etc.

  7. A Matter of Costs and Benefits • Web Services are not the “be all” and “end all” of integration and communications. • They are, however, a very important new technology which is clearly going to transform Enterprise IT. • The key is timing, and deciding “Where to Start”.

  8. Where in terms of Scope? Issues: • Impact on Business • Technical Risk • Human Capital • Institutional Momentum • Bang for the Buck

  9. Choosing Scope Business impact and technical risk: • Day one impact on core systems is a bad idea • Balance business processes with technical needs • Even in the beginning, keep the big picture in mind

  10. Choosing Scope Human Capital and Institutional Momentum: • Learning by doing • In most enterprises, it is already happening anyway • WSI is not just a new technology cycle with a new set of licenses to buy.

  11. Choosing Scope Bank for the Buck • A function of costs, benefits, and circumstances • Even “toy” implementations can go a long way to building understanding and in house expertise

  12. Where on the Network? Issues: • Integrate What? • With Whom? • To what end? • In which order?

  13. Provider Enterprise Blended Enterprise Fractal Enterprise Employer Enterprise The “Grand Vision” thing…

  14. The “Grand Vision” is wrong Like almost all technologies, WS in the enterprise will roll from the inside out: • Experimentation on the intranet • Tentative work with trusted partners on the extranet • Eventual use on the public internet • Different industries already at different stages

  15. Public Networks - The Internet Private and Trusted Network Within the Enterprise Where on the Network? • Within the Enterprise: • Tentative steps, learning by doing • Eventual fundamental gains • Trusted Networks • Emergence of shared semantics • Shared understanding of what works and how things “should” be done • Public Networks • Apart from “proof of concept” still a long way away in most sectors • Eventually, an immensely rich resource
