What Is a TIBCO Domain?

The TIBCO administration domain is defined as a collection of components (machines, process engines, users) that can be monitored and managed via TIBCO Administrator. With BW, the domain defines the scope of the integration environment. A domain can comprise as many BW projects as needed. The domain may contain one or more machines and machines may belong to multiple domains. BW processes can only be deployed to hosts in its domain. Infrastructure messages can cross domain boundaries, although such inter-domain messaging is not recommended as it can complicate deployment. The TIBCO Administration Sever manages the BW domain. A BW domain must contain at least one Administration server and may contain one or more secondary backup Administration servers. The Administration Server provides domain security, monitoring and management.

TIBCO Designer
TIBCO Designer is an easy-to-use GUI for configuring, designing and testing BusinessWorks projects. As a component of BW, TIBCO Designer provides a rich, integrated development environment including project directory (upper left), project resources (lower left), process design (upper right), and activity configuration (lower right). Palettes provide easy access to process activities. You simply drag-and-drop resources from the palette to the design panel to add them to your project. Which palette is displayed depends on the object selected in the project tree. BW palettes contain two types of objects:
T Activities which are used to define actions within a process

definition
T Resources which define things such as configuration details which

are used (by reference) in activities

Projects
BusinessWorks 5.x projects are file based and map to the system file structure of the operating system. The multi-file approach supports and enables a team development environment where multiple developers can work on a single project. You can add files to a project simply by copying them into the system file structure and then choosing the Designer menu item Project > Refresh. The BW 5 multi-file approach also supports project versioning. You can check-in / out components using a Revision Control System (RCS) such as Visual Source-Safe, Perforce, or TIBCO Canon. Note that the use of an RCS is optional.

Process Design
S Process: Activities connected by transitions
Activities: access data Transitions: execution path
S A process:
Contains a start and end Can call sub-processes
TIBCO Software Inc.
Process Design
TIBCO Designer features a graphical, intuitive design space for developing processes. Processes contain activities linked together by transitions. You can have multiple transitions from one activity to another, and transitions can be conditional. You can also have multiple processes and sub-processes. BW process definitions have a beginning and an end. A BusinessWorks process definition is a Directed Acylic Graph (DAG) containing a single start node (starting activity) with any number of directional (Directed) transitions to other nodes (activities). There may not be any transitions to an activity which has been possibly previously visited (Acyclic). In BusinessWorks all transitions must lead to the single required 'End' activity or to optional 'Generate Error' activities.
TIBCO Software Inc.
Page 63
Any single process activity (source) may have multiple transitions out and each transition must be one of four allowed types:
T Success Source activity of transition did not have an exception.

You may create as many of this as required. If there is no exception in the source activity then every 'Success' transition will be taken. The developer has no control over the order of the transitions. The process definition executes using a single thread.
T Error Source activity of transition did have an exception (only

one allowed per source).
T Success with Condition Source activity of transition did not

have an exception and a stated boolean XPath expression evaluates to true. If there is no exception in the source activity then every 'Success with condition' transition which evaluates to true will be taken. Any 'Success' transitions will also be taken. The developer has no control over the order of the transitions.
T Success with No Matching Conditions Source activity of

transition did not have an exception and there were no 'Success with condition' transitions which were true. (only one allowed). Any 'Success' transitions will also be taken. The developer has no control over the order of the transitions.

TIBCO Software Inc.
Activity Configuration
Configuration is done on a per activity basis using the lower right (configuration) panel of Designer. For most process activities there are at least three configuration tabs:
T Configuration Which involves defining (naming) the activity

and specifying certain settings.
T Input Which allows you to map the data input to the activity. T Output Which allows you to view the data that will be output
by activity. Certain activities may also have Headers, Input and Output Schema tabs that may require further configuration. In addition, BusinessWorks provides GUI tools (see next two slides) to help configure activities.

XPath Formula Builder

The XPath Formula Builder is a key feature of the BusinessWorks development environment. This wizard allows you to conveniently map input and output data for the selected activity. Using industry-standard programming functions you can graphically manipulate data for the selected activity. XPath stands for XML Path Language. It is a language that describes how to locate and process items in XML documents by using an addressing syntax based on a path through the documents logical structure or hierarchy. XPath expressions, which you create using the XPath Formula Builder, allows you to graphically formulate how to created new data by a combination of Process Data (data created in this process instance by previously activated activities), XPath functions (an extensible set of methods), and predefined constants.

Process Testing
Process testing can be done at design-time using the Designer GUI. If an activity within your process definition fails youll be able to easily identify and debug it using the testing utility. During testing standard errors are made available via an error dialog and console window. In addition you can enhance error output by mapping error schema to an activity input and view such errors via Designer error tabs. Once tested you can easily validate the project for deployment and then quickly create the deployment package using Designer. We will discuss these topics in the next unit. The Designer debugger is interactive and provides many advanced features that make testing your BW project easy. You will use each of these features extensively during the implementation labs that follow, including:

Project Templates
S Used to:
Create common look and feel for development Enforce adherence to naming standards Provide starting point for development
TIBCO Software Inc.
Project Templates
A good practice for managing the development environment is to segregate the project using folders by distinguishing among process definitions, adapter services, shared connections, shared resources and global variables. Segregating your project along these lines will enable you to define "ownership" among developers working on the project so that multiple developers can work on the same project. You can use BWs import/export facility to merge the project into one final project when the development work is completed and you are ready to deploy project components.

Project Global Variables

S Global variables specify data that changes at deployment
Examples:
Environment specific values Database connections Trace and debug settings
Eases migration between environments
S Values changed by administrator during deployment
TIBCO Software Inc.
Project Global Variables

BusinessWorks uses global variables for environment settings, so to modify subject names for a specific domain environment you only have to change the appropriate global variable. Once again, BW provides an existing subject naming scheme that is parameterized. These parameters can be easily modified to match your projects domain environment. With BW, RV message subject names and sessions are auto-generated, and the domain name is part of the auto-generated subject name. If there are site-wide naming requirements, you may have to modify the default subject names for each domain environment you are establishing. Note that Global Variables can be grouped, useful for RCS locking with multi developer projects.

Lab A - Exercise 1: Create New Project from Template Overview

In this exercise you create a new TIBCO BusinessWorks (BW) project using a pre-defined template that includes some top-level folders and a few global variables.
Steps
1. Start the relevant TIBCO services and set them to "automatic."
T There are three TIBCO services to be concerned with in this course:

TIBCO Administrator 5.4 (userXX) TIBCO EMS Server (PID: xxx) TIBCO Hawk Agent (userXX) Note: For help starting these services, refer to Managing Windows Services on page 163.
2.
Create a new BusinessWorks project named bwpXX using the provided template. Analysis: TIBCO Designer templates facilitate project organization and shared development. You can create a project-wide template containing folders, metadata, shared libraries and global variables. Templates allow you to standardize and reuse resources.
T T T T
Start > Programs > TIBCO > TIBCO Designer 5.5 > Designer 5.5 Select New project from template Browse to and open file C:\BWEDU\Templates\bwpXX.designertemplate When Designer opens you are prompted to save the project: Project Directory: C:\BWEDU\bwpXX (replace XX with your ID, e.g., bwp09)
T Click OK and the development environment for your bwpXX project opens
Note: When Designer initially opens it presents Tips which can be disabled.
Page 76
3.
Customize the TIBCO Designer palette view and your preferences. Analysis: The default layout of TIBCO Designer is three panels with the project tree on the left. You can change this (Edit > Preferences > View) but keep in mind that all lab instructions assume the default layout.
T Select the Palettes tab in the far left pane; notice that the default view shows all activities
and resources in one palette called General Resources
T To categorize the resources and activities into individual palettes, from the tool bar click
the Switch Palette Modes icon (this mode is assumed going forward)
4.
Explore the project template.
T Select the Project tab in the far left pane T In the project tree select the root-level bwpXX project folder (uppermost in the tree) T Notice that the template contains several pre-defined subfolders for organizing your
project, including: AdapterServices AESchemas BusinessUnit BWP.Core Connections CustomJava Schema Deployments ProcessDefinitions Analysis: The AESchemas folder contains adapter metadata and exists by default in any TIBCO Designer-based project. The other folders have been created for you and saved to a template to organize and facilitate development. The BusinessUnit folder is a template within the template. It can be used to create additional project subfolders as required. The BWP.Core folder contains some pre-defined resources and schemas. The Exhibit A folder contains a generic set of subfolders that you will copy and rename for each set of services you will be implementing.
TIBCO Software Inc.
Page 77
5.
Create a project subfolder named CreditCheck.
T Select the existing project folder /BWP.Core T In the design panel to the right, right-click and select New Folder T In the Configuration tab:
Name: Services Click Apply (lower right)
T Select the existing project folder /BusinessUnit/Services/ExhibitA

In the project tree, right-click on the ExhibitA folder and select Copy
T Select the newly created project folder /BWP.Core/Services

In the design panel to the right, right-click and select Paste Rename the ExhibitA folder to CreditCheck Click Apply
T From the TIBCO Designer tool bar, select the Save icon to save your project T Verify your project:
WARNING: Apply your settings each time you name or configure a folder, resource or process activity. Also, save your project frequently. An asterisk (*) next to the project in the title bar indicates changes have not been saved.
Page 78
6.
Explore and configure project global variables. Analysis: Global variables are available project-wide and facilitate shared development. The value of a global variable is substituted at runtime for all occurrences of the global variable name.
T T T T T
Select the Global Variables tab in the far left pane Click the pencil icon at the top of the variables listing to open the Global Variables editor At the bottom of the listed variables youll see a variable group named bwp Expand the bwp group, revealing four global variables created for you For the host.Name variable, click in the value field and change XX to match your ID For example: USER09 (please use all capital letters for this entry)
T For the user.Name and user.Password variables change XX to match your ID

For example: user09 (these entries are lower case)
T Click OK to close the editor T From the Designer tool bar, click the Save icon to save your project (or Project > Save)
7. Test the pre-defined resource /BWP.Core/Connections/OrderDB to verify connectivity with the instructor database.
T Select the OrderDB resource T This resource is configured for you with the following parameters and global variables:
Name: OrderDB Connection Type: JDBC JDBC Driver: tibcosoftwareinc.jdbc.oracle.OracleDriver Database URL: %%bwp/jdbc.URL%% User Name: %%bwp/user.Name%% Password: %%bwp/user.Password%%
T Click Test Connection to verify connectivity with the instructor server
TIBCO Software Inc.
Page 79
Lab A - Exercise 2: Design Perform Credit Check Overview

PerformCreditCheck takes an account number and an amount as input parameters (Start), queries the OrderDB for current account information (Get Account Info) and computes the credit status (Credit Check). The returned Status is either "Accepted," "Rejected" or "Failed" (End).
Steps
1. In folder /BWP.Core/Services/CreditCheck/Implementation define the PerformCreditCheck process.
T Drag-and-drop a Process Definition from the Process palette to the Implementation folder T Name this process PerformCreditCheck T From the project tree, select the PerformCreditCheck process definition to see the Start and
End activities that exist by default with any process definition Analysis: The following naming conventions are observed:
T Processes, Services, Folders and Resources do not have spaces in their

names and use initial capital letters
T Process activities do use spaces between names and initial capitals letters,
the exception being where default activity names are used that do not employ spaces, such as RetrieveResources
Page 80
2.
In the PerformCreditCheck process, add and transition the following activities: Start > JDBC Query > Mapper > End. Analysis: To familiarize you with the Designer interface and BusinessWorks resources, first create the project shell activities and their transitions, then configure them in order of processing, from left to right.
T From the JDBC palette, add a JDBC Query activity T From the General Activities palette, add a Mapper activity T On the tool bar, select the Create transition icon and connect the activities as follows:
Start to JDBC Query JDBC Query to Map Data Map Data to End JDBC Query to End, which is taken on Error if the database query fails To do this: To change the transition condition from success (default) to error:
T Select (click) the transition line between the two activities T In the Configuration tab select the condition type Error
3. Verify the design of your PerformCreditCheck process definition up to this point.
Tip: This example uses the "Multi-Bend" line mode.To change the default line mode, from the Designer menu select View > Default Line Mode.
TIBCO Software Inc.
Page 81
4.
Initiate PerformCreditCheck using the provided CreditCheckSchema.
T In the Output Editor tab of the Start activity:

Click the "Add Child" icon, creating the root element Select the "root" element and configure it: Content: XML Element Reference Schema: Browse to and select /BWP.Core/Schema/CreditCheckSchema with Element CreditCheckRequest In the Preview panel to the right, select the Tree tab and view the data elements required for a credit check request: Amount and AccountID
Click OK to close the "Select a Resource..." interface When you are done the configuration should look like this:
IMPORTANT Note: Inputs to a process can be defined in its Start activity; output from a process can be defined in its End activity. It is good practice to use schema for input and output data as XSD is required to expose a process as a service.
Page 82
5.
Query the CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT table by configuring the JDBC Query activity to retrieve the account information for a specified AccountID.
T JDBC Query Name: Get Account Info T JDBC Connection: Browse to and select /BWP.Core/Connections/OrderDB T Type in or build using the TIBCO Query Designer this query (see "To do this" below):
SELECT CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT.AMOUNT_OWED, CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT.AVAILABLE_CREDIT FROM CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT WHERE ((CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT_ID =?)) To do this: To build this SQL using the TIBCO Query Designer:
T T T T T
Click "Build using wizard" (pencil icon) Expand your userXX account, then Tables Drag-and-drop the CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT table to the panel at right Double-click each table row to include it in the query For the ACCOUNT_ID column at the bottom of the Query Designer: Uncheck "Show" In the Where cell type =? and press <Enter> on your keyboard
T In the SQL tab check "Do not use schema names in SQL statement" T Verify that your query matches the SQL shown above T Click OK to close the TIBCO Query Designer
Note: In this instance, if you try to use the SQL tester or syntax checker neither will work because of the expected input parameter defined using =?.
T In the Configuration tab, click + in the "Prepared Parameters" section to add a new
parameter named Prepared_Param_1 that is of data type VARCHAR
T Select the Input tab click Fetch T To map the data input for this activity:
From the available Process Data on the left, select element $Start\CreditCheckRequest\AccountID Drag it to the Activity Input element on the right jdbcQueryActivityInput\Prepared_Param_1
T In the Output tab, expand "resultSet/Record" and verify that the AMOUNT_OWED and
AVAILABLE_CREDIT elements are returned
TIBCO Software Inc.
Page 83
6.
Compute the customers credit Status by configuring the Mapper activity. Analysis: To compute the credit Status build an XPath expression: If (record returned from the database AND Amount + outstanding balance <= available credit) then credit Status is "Accepted," else Status is "Rejected."
T Mapper Name: Check Credit T In the Input Editor, add required string Status (replace "root" as follows):
Content: Element of Type Name: Status Cardinality: Required Type: String
T For the Input use a "Surround with Choice" statement to determine the credit Status
To do this: To create this choose condition, use the XPath Formula Builder:
T T T T T
Select the text string "Status" (NOT the text field next to "Status") Right-click and select Statement > Surround with Choice Number of when conditions: 1 Include otherwise: checked Click OK
T Now that you have the "Choose" condition, use the pencil icon to open the XPath
Expression Editor and build the following boolean expression: When: (count($Get-Account-Info/resultSet/Record) > 0) and (($Start/CreditCheckRequest/Amount + $Get-Account-Info/resultSet/Record[1]/AMOUNT_OWED) <= $Get-Account-Info/resultSet/Record[1]/AVAILABLE_CREDIT) Status: "Accepted" Otherwise: Status: "Rejected"
T In the Output tab for this activity, verify that Status is returned
Tip: You can copy this expression from C:\BWEDU\XPath\Expressions.txt. If you have errors, use the Mapper Check and Repair feature to fix them. A dialog displays the potential problems in the mapping. Select the Fix checkbox to repair any errors.
Page 84
7.
Complete the process by configuring the End activity to return the result of the credit check. Analysis: The End activity can be configured to return the result(s) from a completed process definition. In this case the result is either Status ("Accepted" or "Rejected") or Failed if the database query fails.
T In the Input Editor tab for the End activity:

Click the "Add Child" icon, creating root Select the "root" element and configure it: Content: XML Element Reference Schema: Browse to and select /BWP.Core/Schema/CreditCheckSchema Element: CreditCheckResult
T For the Input to Status, create a "Surround with Choice" statement with 1 when condition:
When: $_error (in the Mapping Wizard select "Set formula" then Finish) Status: "Failed" Otherwise: Status: $Check-Credit/Status
8.
Verify your completed PerformCreditCheck design.
Tip: Use the Label activity (in the General Activities palette) to comment a process.
TIBCO Software Inc.
Page 85
Lab A - Exercise 3: Test Perform Credit Check Overview

In this exercise you explore the Designer test environment and test your PerformCreditCheck process definition.
Steps
1. Configure your test environment preferences. Analysis: You can configure the TIBCO Designer Tester to suit your preferences and view testing as it transitions through a process.
T From the Designer menu select View > Test Options > Moving Ball Options T Select "Show Ball" T Set the testing speed to 75%
2. Validate the project to check for errors.
T From the Designer menu select Project > Validate Project for Deployment T If configured correctly, you should not have any errors (other than those listed under
"Unassociated Errors & Warnings," which can be ignored)
T If you do have project-associated errors, double clicking the error within the "Validate
Project" dialog will take you to the misconfigured resource in your project so you can fix it
T Revalidate and repair until all relevant errors are cleared T Close the project validator when done
Page 86
3.
Test PerformCreditCheck and verify it returns the "Accepted" status. Analysis: To test for an "Accepted" credit check, provide a valid AccountID and amount and verify the result in the Input Data tab of the End activity.
T In the Tester tab click the green arrow icon, bringing up the Select Processes to Load dialog T Verify that PerformCreditCheck is checked and click Load Selected
T In the Input Data dialog prompt that appears, enter the following data and click OK:
Amount: 3000.00 AccountID: 1234123412341234
T An instance of the process should execute; when it does, check the Input Data tab of the
End activity for the "Accepted" result:
TIBCO Software Inc.
Page 87
4.
Test PerformCreditCheck and verify it returns the "Rejected" status. Analysis: To test for a "Rejected" credit check, change the input data so that the amount being requested is beyond the available limit and verify the result.
T First, change the input data for the PerformCreditCheck process by pressing the <F12> key
Note: Alternatively you can right-click the Start activity and select "Add Input Data" or click the "Supply input data" icon on the Designer menu bar.
T Enter the following data and click OK:

T In the Tester tab "Jobs" folder, select the PerformCreditCheck process definition and click
the green "Create a job" icon to create a new job instance with the new data:
T Once the job process completes, select the End activity then check the Input Data tab for
the "Rejected" result
Page 88
5.
Test PerformCreditCheck and verify it returns a "Failed" credit check. Analysis: To test for a "Failed" credit check, you will need to induce an error. We will do this by changing the database connection login so that it is invalid.
T Stop Designer test mode by click the red "Stop testing" icon
WARNING: You should not make changes to your project while it is in test mode. Stop testing before making any edits.
T In the Global Variables tab, change the value of the %%bwp/user.Name%% variable from
"userXX" to user and save the changes
T Place PerformCreditCheck into test mode T This time the process should fail at the Get Account Info activity and take the Error
transition; check the Input Data tab of the End activity for the "Failed" result:
TIBCO Software Inc.
Page 89
6.
Retest PerformCreditCheck for other types of scenarios.
T Stop Designer test mode and reset the original userXX value for the
%%bwp/user.Name%% global variable
T Retest PerformCreditCheck using a valid AccountID available in the

CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT database table as show below:
T For example, you could retest the credit check using:

AccountID: 3333333333333333 Amount: 99999.00 for "Accepted" Amount: 101000.00 for "Rejected"
T Lastly, test PerformCreditCheck using an invalid AccountID (one that is not in the
CUSTOMER_ACCOUNT table): This result should be "Rejected" because of the initial part of the Check Credit expression which verifies that the account record exists in the database: (count($Get-Account-Info/resultSet/Record) > 0)
7.
When you are done testing, stop Designer test mode.

What Are Web Services?

A Web Service enables an application to be accessed over a network using Internet protocols. Web Services is a generic term. The only requirement placed on a Web Service is that it must be capable of sending and receiving messages using some combination of standard Internet protocols. Most Web Services use SOAP as the data exchange format and HTTP as the transport mechanism. BusinessWorks also supports JMS as the transport mechanism.

TIBCO Software Inc.
SOAP Web Services in BusinessWorks

TIBCO BusinessWorks supports SOAP-based Web Services using Internet and technology standards such as HTTP, JMS, XML, SOAP and WSDL. A SOAP Server is the Web Service provider. A SOAP Client requests a Web Service. BusinessWorks can act as both a Web Service client, making SOAP requests, and as a SOAP Server handling requests and communicating with back-end applications. This is for use by a client in automating the clients creation of an XML file for requesting those services. In order to find the WSDL file, the web service can advertise itself in a UDDI (Universal Description, Discovery and Integration) service. UDDI is a potential way for advertising and discovering Web Services.

The SOAP message format is a specification that defines a simple XML document identifying the information to be transferred, and a set of rules for translating application and platform-specific data types into XML representations. It relies heavily on XML standards like XML Schema and XML Namespaces for its definition and function. SOAPs design makes it suitable for a wide variety of application messaging and integration patterns. A SOAP envelope is an XML document. Contained in this document are optional Header elements specifying how the message should be processed, e.g. routing and delivery settings, authentication, authorization, transaction contexts, etc. The Body element is required and contains the actual message to be delivered and processed.

SOAP Web Service Operations

In more technical terms, a Web Service is an interface positioned between the application code and the desired user of that code (human or machine). A Web Service acts as an abstraction layer, isolating the platform- and language-specific details from the user. This means that any application that supports the Web Service can access the back-end application functionality. Service availability is specified by a WSDL file. A WSDL (Web Services Description Language) file is an XML document that specifies how a client is to interface with the Web Service provider. The most common form of Web Service is to call procedures running on a server, in which case the request message encodes Call this subroutine with these arguments and the reply message encodes Here are the results of the subroutine call.
Page 98
The sequence of events for this type of scenario would be:
T Application code contains the business logic implementation T SOAP Server receives incoming requests (via SOAP over HTTP
or JMS)
T Service Proxy decodes requests into calls to the application code T Service Proxy may then encode a response for Service listener to
reply with Because of the abstraction provided by the standards-based interface, it does not matter whether the application services are written in Java and the browser is written in C++, or the application services are deployed on a Unix box while the browser is deployed on Windows. Web Services enable cross-platform interoperability in a way that makes the application platform irrelevant.

Generating a Service
BW provides WSDL resources for defining Web Service interfaces and SOAP activities for building Web Service servers and clients. Abstract WSDLs are constructed using the WSDL resource and the message, operation and port type parameters that are required for the interface. Abstract WSDLs are derived from an XSD schema that you create using BW or that you import into your project. The concrete WSDL, the one used by clients to call the Web Service, is derived from the application of the abstract WSDL to a SOAP activity and the specification of the HTTP or JMS transport for that activity. In other words, the concrete WSDL = the abstract WSLD plus the transport (EMS/JMS or HTTP).

SOAP Web Service Client

Perform Credit Check is the backend application providing the desired functionality, in this case a credit check. This process takes two inputs, the customer account number and the purchase order price, queries the database for the account information and computes the credit status using a Mapper activity. The SOAP Server is Credit Check Service which wraps the backend application, Perform Credit Check, and exposes it as a Web Service. Implementing this process involves generating the WSDL file based on an XSD schema and building the process using SOAP resources. Invoke Credit Check is a client activity to call the credit check web service. In the lab that follows, after you have built the SOAP Server you a simple client to test the Web Service. In a later lab, when you implement the Process Order process, you will build the functioning client invocation for the Order Processing integration project.

Lab B - Exercise 1: Generate Credit Check Service

In this exercise you expose PerformCreditCheck as a Web Service and available for clients who would want to call it.
Steps
1. In your bwpXX project, add and configure new resource /BWP.Core/Connections/HTTP Connection. Analysis: This connection provides the transport for the Web Service. BW supports HTTP and JMS for transporting SOAP messages.
T Name: SOAPServerHTTP T Host: %%bwp/host.Name%% (delete the default value localhost and replace with this
global variable, see "To do this" below)
T Port: 7575
To do this: To use a global variable instead of hard-coding a value:
T Select the Global Variables tab T Expand the bwp global variable group T Drag-and-drop the host.Name global variable to the Host field
Note: If the field has a globe icon marker to its right, you must first select this icon, then drag-and-drop the desired global variable. Note: If you want you can create a global variable for the port value instead of hard-coding it.

Deployment is a two step process: first you design and test your project using Designer, and then, still using Designer, you create the project archive deployment package. The deployment package is then uploaded to the BW runtime environment using Administrator, and you use this tool to configure the application(s) for deployment and then deploy. TIBCO BusinessWorks process engines and TIBCO Adapter Agents are the components you can deploy.

Application Deployment in Administrator

TIBCO Administrator is a browser-based GUI for managing the TIBCO domain. You can use the interface to add, modify or delete user authorization entries for the domain. You can also monitor and manage domain services such as the Administrator Server and Project Repository Server. In addition, you can monitor and manage any deployments registered with the domain. Deployment components that can be monitored and managed include BusinessWorks process engine instances and BusinessWorks-supported TIBCO Adapters. You can monitor at either a component or machine granularity. You can examine and search for specific entries in the trace files for any of the services in the domain. TIBCO Administrator also provides running statistics of the number of jobs in the BusinessWorks engine, throughput and job-level tracing.

Why Use XML Canon with BW?

XML Canon provides a web-based desktop for viewing and managing all the services, schemas, shared resources, etc. in its repository, dramatically improving reusability. Fine-grained data services like database lookups may be independent. But as higher-level, composite business services such as "Hiring an employee" or "Processing a Loan" are implemented, inter-dependencies increase. XML Canon allows users to analyze the impact of an asset change, process-, project- or enterprise-wide.

Lab C - Exercise 1: Archive Credit Check Service for Deployment

When you are ready to deploy your project, Designer is used to generate an Enterprise Archive (EAR) file, which contains the information about the application components (Services, Processes and Adapters) you want to deploy.
Steps
1. Configure the bwpXX project EAR for deployment.
T From the Designer menu select Tools > Create Project EAR
An Enterprise Archive resource named bwpXX is added to the project at the root level For organization, drag this resource to the project \Deployments folder
T Select the \Deployments\bwpXX enterprise archive resource and configure it:

Name: bwpXX (leave as is) File Location: C:\bwpXX.ear Include all service level global variables: checked
Page 134
2.
Configure the Process Archive to include the Credit Check Service.
T Double-click the Enterprise Archive resource to open it and display the Process and Shared
Archives deployment containers Analysis: The Shared Archive is built by default and auto-populated with all shared components required by the Process or Adapter archive.
T Rename the Process Archive resource CreditCheckService T In the Processes tab, click the "Add a process starter to this archive" icon:
Select the intfPerformCreditCheck-service and click OK
3.
Build the bwpXX Enterprise Archive deployment package.

Lab C - Exercise 3: Manage and Monitor Credit Check Service

In this exercise you use TIBCO Administrator to perform runtime monitoring and management of active business processes. You also explore key files created during application deployment.
Steps
1. Verify that your deployed CreditCheckService engine is running.
T In Administrator select Application Management > All Service Instances T You should see that a userXX - CreditCheckService instance is Running
If not, select it so that it is highlighted and click Start Analysis: From this view the status all TIBCO service instances can be monitored and managed. For example, in addition to the process service, you should also see that the TIBCO Administrator service appears and is listed as Running. (And, if you EMS Server is not already running, you can start it from here as well!)

4.
Explore files created during deployment of BW process engine instance.
T On the domain server machine where TIBCO Administrator Server is running:

C:\tibco\administrator\domain\DOMAIN_NAME\data\ DOMAIN_NAME-ENTERPRISE_ARCHIVE_NAME.dat Analysis: This file is a rewrite of the ear file as a repository file (*.dat). When deployed, the domain admin server has a copy of the deployment definition in this dat file which is used to initialize the component at startup. The name of the DOMAIN appears here twice, both as a folder and as the first part of the file name. The second part of the dat file name is the name of the EAR.
T On the client machine where the TIBCO application (engine or adapter) is deployed to:
C:\tibco\tra\domain\DOMAIN_NAME\application\DEPLOYMENT_FOLDE R_NAME\ENTERPRISE_ARCHIVE_NAME-PROCESS_ARCHIVE_NAME.cmd Analysis: A one line script to start the BW engine. For initial debugging of a deployed component this script can be used to start the component. This should be done in a command window in order to see stderr startup messages even if it will not start.
T On the client machine the TIBCO application (engine or adapter) is deployed to:
C:\tibco\tra\domain\DOMAIN_NAME\application\DEPLOYMENT_FOLDE R_NAME\ENTERPRISE_ARCHIVE_NAME- PROCESS_ARCHIVE_NAME.tra Analysis: A text file containing startup information used by the startup script (CMD file) to obtain deployed BW engine configuration information from the admin server. This file also defines the working environment for this component.

Lab C - Exercise 4: Implement Project Version Control

In this exercise you use TIBCO XML Canon to version control and manage your BW project.
Steps
1. Check your bwpXX project into TIBCO XML Canon (running on the instructor server).
T From the Designer menu of your bwpXX project, select Project > Save As T Select the XML Canon tab and configure the connection as follows:
For the XML Canon category, click Browse In the "Browse for Project Folder" dialog: In the http:// field enter edusvr:9983 Click Connect If prompted, provide your userXX credentials and click OK
T You should now have a WebDAV connection to the XML Canon Server from Designer,
evidenced by the userXX category (and others) to which you have access in Canon:
Analysis: WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning) is an extension to HTTP that allows document uploads, locking and property attribution (e.g., version number, author). XML Canon is a WebDAV server, while TIBCO Designer is a WebDAV client.

TIBCO BusinessWorks
TIBCO BusinessWorks offers a complete integration framework. Since it is a GUI-based product, it is easier to learn how to use and easier to see the business logic once it has been configured which means projects will be easier to maintain. BusinessWorks also provides broad support for the latest standards including J2EE compliance (JMS, EJB, JNDI), protocols (SOAP, WSDL, HTTP, HTTPS), Messaging (JMS, TIBCO Rendezvous), data description (native support for DTD, XSD, and TIBCO AE Schema), data representation and expressions (native support for XML, XPath), and data transformation (XSLT) standards. With BusinessWorks you can manage the complete project lifecycle from the design and testing phase to the production phase. Once deployed you can manage and monitor your integration projects as well.

Business Process Design

TIBCO Designer is a single unified interface for designing processes and configuring adapters, optional workflow components, and enterprise messaging. It also offers an integrated testing utility so that you can debug projects prior to deployment. Because Designer uses XML as its underlying storage format, you can successfully configure advanced integration solutions without any coding. TIBCO Designer allows multiple developers to work on the same project. Developers can use file sharing/locking or a revision control system to ensure that the same resource is not changed by two developers at the same time. Currently TIBCO Canon, Microsoft Visual SourceSafe, Perforce, Clearcase, CVS and PVCS are supported.
