Intel® SOA Expressway Data Sheet

Intel® SOA Expressway is a software-appliance designed to simplify, accelerate, and secure the Enterprise SOA architecture. It expedites SOA deployments by addressing common SOA bottlenecks – it accelerates, secures, integrates and routes XML, web services and legacy data in a single, easy to manage form factor.

This data sheet presents background on the problem of sharing web services across domains for a scalable, secure, and properly governed federated SOA deployment. The document presents insight into a new type of design pattern called a cross-domain service router that bridges these islands of integration, no matter if they are based on SOAP, REST or custom protocols. Finally, the features and functions of the Intel SOA Expressway SOA Soft-appliance are presented. You will learn:

• Web service security and governance usage models
• Flexibility of SOA soft-appliances that do not compromise on extensibility or virtualization.
• Cost reduction advantages of soft-appliance tuned for Intel Multi-Core servers
