[dna-dev] SOA/Enterprise project using DNA

Hi all, as said in a previous post I'm going to start a SOA/Enterprise project using DNA for an important part of the project. I'm finishing the design of the whole application, but I can describe here the main idea and how DNA will be related. In a nutshell we are SOAfing a complex system of a customer (J2EE+.NET+Oracle mainly, with external partner and provider with SOAP service and/or custom legacy services). The system use a lot of data stored in various resources (mainly relationl DB, but also someone provided from partner services). Some code (in all languages) apply business rules to this data and transform it in a some enrich information (information=data+Business rules). Aggregating this data we build a final report to client that is the final product. As said we are moving to SOA and we are identifying services and aggregation of them. The area where DNA could be very useful is solving the problem of keeping track of information during time. IOW we are asked to be able to provide not only current information, but also information related to a particular moment (remember information for us= data + business rules). The system (or better a lot of service provider we are considering part of the system) haven't ability to keep data or bsiness rules history, so we have to store in some other places answer to be able to retrive them in future. Here DNA could help us: the basic idea is to use JBossESB as integration layer where a MessageStore could store messages into DNA where we can apply different sequencers to extract information and organize it for our different future purpose. ok, a bit confused, but it's late night and I'm tired and moreover the project is on its start up. I'll try to explain better details regarding DNA very soon, as soon as I finished my design. bye S.
