Building Blocks of SOA - BPEL

-
Any business is a set of processes which culminate in delivery of goods or services and generating revenue in exchange.
SOA provides a technical blueprint with the business to deliver goods/services and generate revenue.

Let us take a following flow
1 - The simple shop process starts, when a customer sends a shopping cart and a user ID.

2 - The process requires the delivery address and the credit card number of the customer.
The information is sent in two different messages, which may arrive in an arbitrary sequence.

3 - Finally the customer finishes the process and the shopping information is logged.


It is possible to make it into a code, write objects, functions and procedures to make this happen.

In SOA world we use a different form of coding its called BPEL, the content, variables flow all defined within XML-

get details here

lets look at a simple variable definition

Like wise these the content could be any of these <receive><reply><invoke><assign><throw><exit><wait><empty><sequence><if><while><repeatUntil><forEach><pick><flow><scope><compensate><compensateScope><rethrow><validate> instead of <variable>
If you really want to get your hands dirty, try out these Business Process Management Samples from IBM, which case you can do the stuff without getting your hands too much dirty.

Meaning of Summa Ameen

The verbal meaning of Summa Ameen is re-iteration of the first Ameen. The effect of saying Ameen is more than saying dua twise which is explained as below. The letter deliverd by a post man or a courier would have a 'From' address and a 'To' address it would rarely contain a seal, presence of a seal signifies higher priority and importance of the delivered content. So the reader gives more consideration to a letter which has a seal on it. Every dua is our personal letter which is delivered directly to Allah, with immediate effect and no middle man/thing. Prophet said(something similar to) "a dua followed by Ameen is like placing a seal on it".

The Chicken Story- Shawai, Tanduri, BBQ or What?

Thursday afternoon is for friends and family to gather and spend some quality time together; cousins in Dubai get together every Thursday with accessories like coal, grill marinated chicken and kubboos. It is like a celebration with jokes, pokes, fun and barbeque, but first is to find a right place in the desert to settle down. First step is to get fire up coal, that requires skill and patience, next is to place the marinated chicken on the grill. There is no cooking oil used (zero cholesterol) and the chicken cooks in its own oil, each pieces are moved/turned so that the cooking is regular. Alas! The pleasure of sumptuous food. (made at home) Once the chicken is ready everything else is forgotten it’s just chicken and us, The name of the dish was of course a debate, Shawai, Tandoori or BBQ finally we decided to call it ‘chutta kozhi’. Recipe – Chicken marinated in Secret Ingredients for at-least 4 hours. Secrete ingredients:- Lemon/Curd, Mint, Cilantro, chilly powder, tamarind powder,...
