Conventional wisdom of the "software stack" approach to building applications may no longer be relevant. Enterprises are pursuing new ways of organizing systems and processes to become service oriented and event-driven. Leveraging existing infrastructural investments is a critical aspect to the success of companies both large and small. Enterprises have to adapt their systems to support frequent technological changes, mergers and acquisitions. Furthermore, in a growing global market, these systems are being called upon to be used by external business partners. Technology is often difficult, costly and complex and without modern approaches can prevent the enterprise from becoming agile. Enterprise Service Oriented Architectures helps readers solve this challenge in making different applications communicate in a loosely coupled manner. This classic handbook leverages the experiences of thought leaders functioning in multiple industry verticals and provides a wealth of knowledge for creating the agile enterprise. In this book, you will learn: * How to balance the delivery of immediate business value while creating long-term strategic capability * Fundamental principles of a service-oriented architecture (find, bind and execute) * The four aspects of SOA (Production, Consumption, Management and Provisioning) * How to recognize critical success factors to implementing enterprise SOAs * Architectural importance of service registries, interfaces and contracts * Why improper service decomposition can hurt you later rather than sooner * How application design and integration practices change as architects seek to implement the "agile" enterprise About the Authors James McGovern is an enterprise architect for The Hartford. He is an industry thought leader and co-author of the bestselling book: A Practical Guide to Enterprise Architecture.

Get up to speed with using Mermaid diagrams to facilitate a seamless development workflow with the help of real-world examples and expert tips from the creators of the tool Key Features Learn how to use and customize the different diagram types in Mermaid Discover examples of how to add Mermaid to a documentation system Use Mermaid with various tools available such as editors, wiki, and more Book DescriptionMermaid is a JavaScript-based charting and diagramming tool that lets you represent diagrams using text and code, which simplifies the maintenance of complex diagrams. This is a great option for developers as they're more familiar with code, rather than using special tools for generating diagrams. Besides, diagrams in code simplify maintenance and ensure that the code is supported by version control systems. In some cases, Mermaid makes refactoring support for name changes possible while also enabling team collaboration for review distribution and updates. Developers working with any system will be able to put their knowledge to work with this practical guide to using Mermaid for documentation. The book is also a great reference for looking up the syntax for specific diagrams when authoring diagrams. You'll start by learning the importance of accurate and visual documentation. Next, the book introduces Mermaid and establishes how to use it to create effective documentation. By using different tools, editors, or a custom documentation platform, you'll also understand how to use Mermaid syntax for various diagrams. Later chapters cover advanced configuration settings and theme options to manipulate your diagram as per your needs. By the end of this book, you'll be well-versed with Mermaid diagrams and how they can be used in your workflows. What you will learn Understand good and bad documentation, and the art of effective documentation Become well-versed with maintaining complex diagrams with ease Discover how to draw different types of Mermaid diagrams such as flowcharts, class diagrams, Gantt charts, and more Implement Mermaid diagrams in your workflows Understand how to set up themes for a Mermaid diagram or an entire site Get to grips with setting up a custom documentation system Who this book is forThis book is for content generators such as technical writers, developers, architects, business analysts, and managers who want to learn effective documentation or how to effectively represent diagrams using simple text code snippets and extract them. Familiarity with documentation using Markdown will be helpful, but not necessary.
