Rapidly Building Enterprise Apps, APIs, and Services with WSO2 Developer Studio

With the introduction of SOA, enterprise application developers are faced with several challenges; they need to implement a componentized service model and, as a result, make certain technical decisions such as whether to use SOAP-based services or RESTful implementations. At the implementation stage, a number of different SOAs may have to be considered to meet specific requirements. This would mean that developers will have to use different tools and spend time learning and adapting them to implement the complete system.

So, what if there was a single tooling platform that supports the implementation of the different types of SOAs that will run on your favorite Java IDE? Our solution is WSO2 Developer Studio IDE, which offers all SOA tools to build your enterprise applications under one hood running on top of the most popular Java IDE, Eclipse. WSO2 Developer Studio consists of tools to support the entire WSO2 Carbon Platform, which includes tooling support for Data Services, ESB Mediation flows, BPEL-based Business Processes, Web-Application and Jaggery Application for the front-end and much more. Most of these tools also come with a user-friendly graphical editor that allows you to drag and drop different components into editor and connect them with your pointing device.

This tutorial will illustrate the basic functions and features supported by WSO2 Developer Studio and demonstrate how developers can use it in real-world enterprise application development scenarios. You will also learn how WSO2 Developer Studio can be used to deploy the application to the WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware platform and how to manage enterprise application components with source control systems as well as build tools among others.

Javascript Everywhere: Backend to Web and Mobile Apps in Javascript

Web teams often choose development practices that embrace simplicity, widespread reach, and fast-iterative scripting. While teams can choose from many scripting languages, only JavaScript natively reaches into web browsers and unifies web application development across mobile devices, PC clients, media devices, and servers. When web developers use a single scripting language to build server-side data access, compose APIs, send messages, and build a client-driven user experience, teams can simplify roles, accelerate development timelines, and increase agility.

This will be a hands-on session, where Nuwan and Samisa will discusses and elaborate on the development of full-stack JavaScript.

Defining a Pragmatic and Practical SOA Focused Enterprise Architecture

Enterprise architectures today should be agile and adaptable to deliver rapidly changing business requirements. Traditional application architectures were designed and used with systems that existed more than a decade ago. Most enterprises today have stuck with the same outdated architecture for their day-to-day business operations and are looking for alternatives.

It’s often difficult and expensive to make changes to old systems to support challenging and agile business requirements. Problems such as scaling systems to manage a sudden burst of traffic, provisioning hardware assuming a ballpark peak load instead of going to a cloud-based flexible provisioning scheme, adding new business functionality in a secured, re-usable manner are some of them among many others.

During this tutorial, learn how you can apply SOA principles to build your enterprise architecture to handle challenging business and technical needs, and learn how the WSO2 enterprise middleware stack can help you to build a platform for rapid application development and deployment.
