What are Composite Applications? Collection of user facing components brought together for a

specific business purpose front end of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)

Programming model supported in Portal and Notes surface content from multiple systems aggregate different component types

Support business flexibility mix-n-match and loose coupling user effectiveness

Benefits of Composite Applications

Improve user efficiency through contextual collaborationtools for integration and collaboration in the context of everyday

applications remove silos of information

Exploit IT investments and strategy by heterogenous technologies

Notes applications/databases Lotus Component Designer components portlets and WSRP Eclipse components (e.g. embedded browser) other component types , including desktop applications

On demand business applications via Service Oriented Architecture

loosely coupled componentssurface content from multiple systems

Composite Application Model - Definitions

Composite (application)collection of components brought together for a business purpose

Componentcontains UI, business logic and storage (e.g. NSF)

Component viewpresentation service/view into component (e.g. Notes view)

Edits composite application definition portal based applications and application templates while on-line NSF based composite applications while on-line or off-line

Add or edit composite applications pages component runtime properties wiring

Property Broker Programming Model

Component interactionloosely coupled through properties and actionsacross database boundariesmix-and-match component technologies

Property is a typed exchangeable data item component produces

Action is the logic to consume a property

Components define their properties and actions

Wire connects properties to actionsunique wiring defined in specific composite applicationcausal relationship1-to-1 or 1-to-many wiring options

NSF based Composite Application Definitions

Composite application definitions stored in NSFs supports Lotus Notes rich client only; for web and rich client use

WebSphere Portal composite applications can be modified via Composite Application Editor

Pages and property broker wires pages can contain multiple component views properties and actions defined per component wires defined on composite application level

Supported component types Lotus Notes components Eclipse components (including embedded web browser)

Tools to build Components

Domino Designerscript oriented developmentstandard Notes database design plus inter component

communication

Lotus Component Designerscript oriented developmentcreates native components for rich client and portal

Eclipse / Rational toolscomprehensive Java, Eclipse and SWT capabilities

Extensions to Notes Programming Model

Properties and actions defined for entire NSF in WSDL new design element stores WSDL WSDL creation and modification functions provided

Publish properties in multiple ways map view column to declaratively publish view column value when view

selections changeOR

use LotusScript APIs to publish properties from other design elements

Implement actions use LotusScript APIs for Notes actions to consume input properties

Notes out of the box Components

PIM (Personal Information Management) databases are NSF based composite applications Notes Mail Notes Calendar Notes Contacts

Component interaction and property broker support properties and actions defined in shipped templates add custom properties and actions via Domino Designer

Use as Notes components in your custom composite applications

Extensions to Eclipse Programming Model

Properties and actions defined in WSDL stored in plugin and registered via extension point WSDL creation and modification functions provided

Publish properties use Java APIs to publish properties

Implement actions use Java APIs to retrieve input properties three types of actions

1) core Action - org.eclipse.core.commands.AbstractHandler

2) SWT Action - org.eclipse.jface.action.Action

3) AWT Action - java.awt.Component

Portal based Composite Applications add Value

Web based experience with a unified application model with client

Template and Instantiation

Custom application level roles (role names specific to app domain)

Component domain level roles with role mapping

Instantiation time template parameters

Application instance level archive/restore (Portal 6.0.1)

Policy based instance management (Portal 6.0.1)

Summary

Evolution not revolution existing or new Notes applications reusable as components Notes client benefits from models used today on Portal

Support business flexibility and strategy mix-n-match component technologies support of Portal and NSF infrastructures loose coupling for component interaction

User effectiveness surface content from multiple systems single context to user for multiple systems = front end to SOA

Integration and collaboration tools in the context of everyday applications
