I have many webservice that they use wsdl. I want to use ESB for relation between webservices.
I don't know choose mule, is it correct or no?
I search about this problem I find wso2 esb, I don't know it's good for my work or no. I'm very confused.
I don't know how do I do?
Please help me.
You can use as well Oracle Service Bus as well.
Here are some notes i do for a coleague asking same question:
One thing to know about ESB is that there is not perfect definition for it. The scope and role may vary depending on the needs.
One of the most important things that you can do via ESB is to decouple the client from the
service providers
ESB helps to have:
● a service location transparency
● sharing of services accross the enterprise
● separate the business service from service implementation
Esb Capabilities :
Routing
The ability to redirect a client request to a particular service provider based on deterministic or
variable routing criteria.
Types of routing to consider:
● static or deterministic routing
● content based routing
● policy based routing
● complex rules based routing
Message transformation
The ability to transform the client request to the format the service provider expects it.
Most used transformations are:
Xml -> Xml
Xml -> Cobol
Object -> Xml
Xml -> Json
etc.
Message enforcement
The ability to enrich,enhance the message that comes as request as the service provide
requires.
Types of message enforcement:
● Date format conversion
● Data conversion (ex: transform spaces to 0)
● Rule based enhancements. (ex: if message is from x add some information to the
request)
Protocol transformation
The ability to accept from the consumer one type of protocol as input (ex SOAP/JMS) and
communicate to the service provider other protocol (ex: IIOP)
Service Mapping
The ability to translate a business service into the corresponding service implementation and
provide binding and location information
Message Processing
The ability to manage state and perform request management by accepting an input request
and ensuring delivery back to the client via message synchronization.
Process choreography
The ability to manage complex business processes that require the coordination of multiple
business services to fulfill a single business request.
Service Orchestration
The ability to manage the coordination of multiple implementation services.
Transaction management
The ability to provide a single unit of work for a business service request by providing a
framework for the coordination of multiple resources across multiple disparate services
(see more WS - Coordination)
Security
The ability to protect enterprise services from unauthorized access
ESB should provide 4A’s of security :
Authentication
Authorization
Auditing
Administration
What have you tried with Mule and WSO2 ?
All ESB can interact with WebServices. An alternative to Mule and WSO2 would be to use Apache-Camel. They have a nice support for Web Services.

Most of our bespoke applications in AWS are containerized .NET Core apps and so far we haven't needed to build any SOAP APIs - virtually all of the APIs that we've delivered (whether exposed publicly via AWS API Gateway or internal only) are JSON RPC following a RESTful architecture/design principles.
We also have a third party COTS product deployed into our AWS account that produces SOAP webhooks and we need to receive and process these SOAP webhooks produced by the third party COTS product.
Ideally we don't want to build a bespoke SOAP API / translation layer - even if WCF is now supported in .NET Core / 5+, I'd much rather we just stick with HTTP/REST and .NET Core WebAPIs which is well understood by our delivery teams. Ideally there is a way e.g. a native AWS service, that would allow us to translate the SOAP request to a HTTP/REST request. Does anyone know if there's a native AWS service with these capabilities?
Cheers.
The translation would be something like the following
HTTP method GET/POST + SOAP operation verb endpoint
POST /soap/cancelOrder <message>{id}</message>
<=>
HTTP method GET/POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE + REST resource noun endpoint
DELETE /rest/orders/{id}
Without a naming convention it is hard to translate. Another issue here, that real REST services return hypermedia with a flexible structure, while SOAP services return SOAP message with a ridig structure defined in WSDL. Yet another issue that SOAP is stateful, while REST is stateless.
Maybe in edge cases it is possible to automatically translate for example by services which do only basic CRUD without any real business logic.
I am certain I need to use an API Gateway, but I can't understand the main differences between the different tools in my use case scenario.
Currently, I have multiple services (DBs, Mobile App, Web App and some additional systems. Consider there are 15 different services) that communicate with each other through REST APIs. This is difficult to manage and test, so I would like to change the architecture into something more like what Netflix is doing with Zuul.
Ideally, the services don't know about the other services. They send a request to a specific endpoint (the API Gateway). Then, the API Gateway interacts with the necessary services and sends the response back.
Here is one example in practice: a service sends a request to a custom (endpoint) connector, the request is parsed, broken down into smaller requests that are sent to other services (that own the specific content requested), get the content back in the response, gather all the responses, create a final response with all the content gathered, send the response back to the first service that sent a request.
I need high availability, scalibility, fault tolerance, the ability to monitor and test all services in one place, ability to do canary testing, easy to add new services and manage the older services. I value open source software and mature software. Should run off premise.
The best solutions that I believe would solve my problem are: WSO2, Apigee, Zuul and Amazon API Gateway. I don't know which is more appropriate for my use case. I have looked at others, but I haven't found any advantages in features or cost against these 4.
Thank you for your feedback regarding advantages and disadvantages regarding these technologies! Other suggestions are also welcome!
Notes:
Not all of my services are on AWS, but some are.
The system needs to handle peaks with tens of thousands of requests per minute that happen regurarly, but never continuasly.
You can also consider the Forum Sentry API Security Gateway from Forum Systems (I work for Forum Systems).
Based on your example use case, if each of the "smaller request" services are using the same protocols (e.g. HTTPS), message formats (e.g. JSON) and security characteristics (TLS, authentication, etc.) then the solution should be relatively straight forward.
If each service is using different identity or message formats, say, then your API Gateway solution will also need to have strong capabilities around identity and message conversion. For example, one small request may require a BasicAuth header to authenticate to the service, whereas another small request may require a SAML assertion.
As you have landscape of different microservices, wherein each microservice has its own business context and is accessible by REST endponit. In this case, your client need not to aware about each microservice and thus API gateway comes into picture, using which you can have one entry point to all microservices landscape.
There are different API gateway solutions available like you said apigee, apiman etc. These framework gives some basic implementation of features required in API gateways like request throttling, monitization of request calls, authentication handle, centralized security etc.
Netflix's Zuul provides the filters which you need to implement yourself. So, if you are using Zuul, you have to implement all the features which you want to put in your API gateway by yourself.
I hope this explanation helps!!!
We have intranet based notes applications. We need to create a web service provider from notes and it needs to be consumed from other internet based application.
Note- the consumer will be triggered from external environment not from our network.
For Eg: Network X is ours, all the note application works only in network X(not in internet). It means that single sign on is not enabled. The external application is in network Y.
We have a provider and it works fine in our end. But we need to consume it from the external application, it is ASP .Net.
Question :
Does Single Sign on need to be enabled in our domino server?
Is there any possible to consume my provider without enabling single sign on from external application?
Which is the secured web service scenario in Lotus notes domino?
We are using notes 8.5.3.
Thanks in advance
I will start a response, but I'm afraid that you didn't gave enough information to get the response you need.
Basically, your WS provider is anonymous, so a consumer calling it from the Y network will act as anonymous.
[edited]
From your network Y, simply open the WSDL to check that you have access:
//server/yourdb.nsf/WS_name?wsdl
Using tool like SoapUI, try to consume it.
According to you remark (hello word) you don't need what I mention below about security. I suggest you to read Creating your first Web Service provider and consumer in LotusScript and Java.
Security
If the data you want to send are publicly accessible, you have not to care about security and SSO. If in contrast you need to give access thru your WS to a limited audience, you will have to read and do what IBM recommends:
How to secure a web service hosted on a Domino server
I suggest you to provide some information:
in which language is the WS (LS / Java)
how/what ganularity did you implement the security (reader field, or ACL)
What is the data you
are returning with your WS
I am implementing RESTful web services using NetBeans (JAX-RS) and Glassfish server to expose database resources.
I want to implement varying levels of security depending upon the users requirement (maybe choice provided to user). From various discussions regarding REST security, I understand there are different ways (given below) in which security can be implemented. How can I implement a security solution as a service which will be invoked depending upon the context.
TLS (HTTPS) +
1. HTTP Basic
2. HTTP Digest
3. two-legged OAuth
4. a Cookie-based approach
5. client certificates
6. Signed requests using HMAC and a limited lifetime
Thanks in advance
You can try to implement security by using Policies at Runtime.
Policy gives the flexibility to implement different security scenario (userauth, oauth,saml etc) depending upon the context.
We implemented the same in web service using Apache CXF and WS-SecurityPolicy.
For rest service I think similar concept can be used.
Why WS security is needed to provide tokens,signatures etc if there are ssl communication to achieve this purpose? How can WS security used to provide integrity,confidentiality and authenticity that ssl can't provide?simply why ws secuirty(If possible can you provide any example)
If business partner of paypal using paypal's web service in its website.If that web service is asking for username and password of its customer,how paypal can protect customers data from there Business partners?How soap transaction can take place between customers,paypal and its business patners?plz can you explain how WS security concepts ( provide integrity, confidentiality,authenticity) in this case?
The main difference is that HTTP related security mechanisms secure the transport layer of the web service, and WS security addresses a higher level of abstraction.
similarly, you may have also security solutions in higher (for example: encrypt just a specific password field in a web service) or lower levels (like VPN)
Different scenarios will require different security measures in different layers
Some examples:
Web Services are not limited to HTTP transport - your environment may include other transports (like messaging using JMS, MSMQ, etc). setting up security at the Web Services layer (rather then the transport layer) will allow you to use a common mechanism for the whole environment.
Another issue is that http level security information is "pealed" as you go higher in the Web Services Stack - for example, in many places you wont be accessing the service provider directly, but through a central ESB (Enterprise Service Bus). the ESB acts as a central hub for services, and may also perform tasks such as logging, routing, publishing to multiple service endpoints, etc.
When using an ESB the http connection is broken at the ESB, and the service gets a new http connection originating from the ESB - thus http security mechanisms cannot offer end-to-end security.
WS Security information however can be preserved even if the messages are routed through an ESB
What you describe in you last comment appears to be not related to the previous answer
Do you mean they have a mechanism like OpenID or kerberos, where you can use your credentials from one site to access a different site?
This isn't specific to web services, and there are various existing protocols to do it (my guess is that they use an existing protocol). Of course a similar mechanism can be developed using WS Security standards.
The kerberos protocol for example works like this:
1. The user authenticates to the security server
2. the security server replies with a signed message (called ticket) saying "the user 123 has been authenticated"
3. The user uses this message to prove that he is indeed user 123 to the 2nd site, without the need for the 2nd site to actually get his username password.
This protocol is based on encryption and cryptographic signatures - both are available using WS security.
SSL (TLS) security will protect the user from eavesdropping. But it won't protect you (your site) from malicious users. You're still vulnerable to buffer overflows, SQL injection and so on.
For a great example watch the "How I met your girlfriend" talks by Samy Kamkar at Defcon (shorter) and at Blackhat (longer). Samy explains using web application vulnerabilities to breaking into an account (in this case it's Facebook) of someone who uses SSL.
The main difference between SSL and WS-Security is, SSL is transport level but WS-Security is message level... In other words when you use SSL - as soon as the message left the transport channel - its not secured. But with WS-Security message will be still secured and message security is independent from the transport channel.
With WS-Security,
Authentication --> UsernameToken
Non-repudiation --> Signature [XML
Signature/WS-Security] Confidentiality --> Encryption [XML
Encryption/WS-Security]
Integrity --> Signature [XML Signature/WS-Security]
Pure SSL provides Authentication/Confidentiality and Integrity - but not Non-repudiation.
2-legged OAuth is a standard to support Non-repudiation over SSL.
Thanks...
WS or Web Service Security is an extension of SOAP which applies security to different web services. Ws-Security uses XML signatures and encryption to provide end to end security. Main focus of this protocol is to specify how integrity and confidentiality can be enforced in messages exchanges between user and service provider on web such as Paypal. This service also allows communication of different security token formats like SAML, X.509, Kerberos etc. Unlike HTTP protocol which mainly focuses on providing security at transport level, WS security mechanism implements higher level of abstraction in application layer and provide encrypted security solution.
Since need of security is different on every platforms, these two standards focuses to meet distinguish need of such security platforms. With the help of this security, end to end security, non- repudiation, reverse proxy, transport bindings etc are improved.
In general terms you can say that this service is another method to provide better security to data exchange platforms and user’s privacy. There are many other services/software which does same task like TOR (provides integrity to user privacy), ScrapeSentry (a service which provide security from bad bot traffic and spam), Distil Network (another service to block spam on web spam) etc. However concept of every security mechanism is different but their main motive is to provide constant and reliable security to user as well as businesses.
Good day people,
the SSL/TLS technology is a security technology. Its goal is to protect the user from having his/her information (credit card, address, tel number...) being stolen by a hacker. The SSL certificate will protect the website and each person who connects on the website will be sure to have a secured environment.
The quality of the security depends on the type of certificate installed on the website in question, whether it is DV (Domain Validation), OV (Organization Validation), EV (Extended Validation), if the SGC technology is present or not.
If you have any other questions, you can have more details here.
