What if I want more?
Can I extend WSO2 ESB?




Yes.. you can..
Just write a mediator..




                          39
Mediator ..!!
what is that?




                40
Important concept - Mediator
• Basic component of ESB
• Mediates messages going through
• Core mediators
  –   Send, Drop, Log, Property
• Filter mediators
  –   Filter, Switch, Validate, Throttle, In, Out
• Transformation mediators
  –   XSLT, Header, Fault, XQuery
• Advanced mediators
  –   Clone, Cache, Aggregate, DBLookup, Callout
                                                    41
Important concept – Send Mediator
• Used to send out the messages
• Used in almost all the cases
• Wrapped an endpoint
  –   if no endpoint is specified, anonymous 'To'
      address will be taken as the EPR




                                                    42
Important concept – Sequence
• Special mediator
     –   List of mediators to be executed in an order
• Pipeline pattern
• Special sequences
     –   main
     –   fault




                                                        43
Important concept – operation modes
• Act as a proxy
• Main Sequence
      – If none of the proxy services matches the
        request pattern




                                                    44
I would like to have few
more mediator examples..




                           45
Extendibility – Java Mediator
• Class implementing the Mediator interface
  –   Or AbstractMediator class
  –   Custom mediator is executed through the
      ClassMediator in ESB
  –   Corresponding setter methods in the custom class
      will be set before executing the custom mediator
      if any properties are specified




                                                     46
Extendibility - POJOCommand
• Extends the mediation capabilities using the
  well known command pattern
      – Class implementing the Command interface or
        a POJO with a void execute() method
      – execute() method will be invoked using the
        Command interface or by using reflection
      – Sets the properties before execution and
        retrieves the properties after execution



                                                      47
Extendibility – Script Mediator
• Enables scripting for extending mediation
• Supports all the Apache BSF scripting languages
      – JRuby, Jython, Groovy, Java Script
• Embed the script inline or can be referred to a
  separate script file with the function name to
  be executed



                                                48
Extendibility – Spring Mediator
• Spring configurations to extend the mediation
• Spring bean must implement the Mediator
  interface
• Refer to the spring application context using
  the key
• The Spring bean is managed by the spring
  context at mediation time


                                                  49
Extending WSO2 ESB


                                                         50
So how does all of these fit
together?...
What happens with-in WSO2
ESB?

                                              Response
                                    Thread2   processing
       Outgoing resp


       This model means:
       1. Synapse threads never blocked during normal processing
       2. Number of sockets open >> number of threads

                                                                                   57

I would like to see some
Use cases where all of
these are applied...




                           59
Use Case 1
• Problem
  – I want to send a notification email whenever there
    is a request to a particular service which satisfies a
    set of conditions over the request
• Solution
  – Filter the messages over the request and evaluate
    the conditions
  – If the conditions evaluate to true then clone the
    message
  – Send the request to the desired endpoint while
    forwarding a copy (may be after transformation)      60
    through the mail transport
Use Case 1




             61
Use Case 1 - configuration




                             62
Use Case 2
• Problem
  – I have a service exposed over HTTP transport and
    now I want the same service to be accessed through
    JMS
• Solution
  – Expose a proxy service with JMS (and what ever
    transport) and switch the transport to HTTP (if not
    http)
  – Invoke the actual service with HTTP transport
  – Switch the transport back to JMS of the response
    message                                               63
Use Case 2




             64
Use Case 2 - Configuration




                             65
Use Case 3
• Problem
  – I want the ESB to invoke several services of the
    same type for a request, evaluate all the responses
    and respond me with the best one
• Solution
  – Clone the message and send the requests to
    different endpoints
  – Get the responses from all services and aggregate
    the responses
  – Select the best out of the aggregated responses and
    respond to the client
                                                        66
Use Case 3




             67
Use Case 3 - Configuration




                             68
Use Case 3 - Configuration




                             69
Use Case 3 - Configuration




                             70
Use Case 3 - Configuration




                             71
Use Case 3 - Configuration




                             72
Use Case 4
• Problem
  – I have a non secure service and now I want to
    expose this service with security
• Solution
  – Expose a proxy service
  – Add security to that proxy service and specify the
    policy on which you want to enforce security
  – Invoke the actual service without security by
    removing security headers in the request comes to
    the proxy
  – Add security for responses from the actual service   73
    to client
Use Case 4




             74
Use Case 4 - Configuration




                             75
Use Case 5 - FIX to HTTP transport




http://wso2.org/library/3837
                                      76

  • 42. Important concept – Send Mediator • Used to send out the messages • Used in almost all the cases • Wrapped an endpoint – if no endpoint is specified, anonymous 'To' address will be taken as the EPR 42
  • 43. Important concept – Sequence • Special mediator – List of mediators to be executed in an order • Pipeline pattern • Special sequences – main – fault 43
  • 44. Important concept – operation modes • Act as a proxy • Main Sequence – If none of the proxy services matches the request pattern 44
  • 45. I would like to have few more mediator examples.. 45
  • 46. Extendibility – Java Mediator • Class implementing the Mediator interface – Or AbstractMediator class – Custom mediator is executed through the ClassMediator in ESB – Corresponding setter methods in the custom class will be set before executing the custom mediator if any properties are specified 46
  • 47. Extendibility - POJOCommand • Extends the mediation capabilities using the well known command pattern – Class implementing the Command interface or a POJO with a void execute() method – execute() method will be invoked using the Command interface or by using reflection – Sets the properties before execution and retrieves the properties after execution 47
  • 48. Extendibility – Script Mediator • Enables scripting for extending mediation • Supports all the Apache BSF scripting languages – JRuby, Jython, Groovy, Java Script • Embed the script inline or can be referred to a separate script file with the function name to be executed 48
  • 49. Extendibility – Spring Mediator • Spring configurations to extend the mediation • Spring bean must implement the Mediator interface • Refer to the spring application context using the key • The Spring bean is managed by the spring context at mediation time 49
  • 50. Extending WSO2 ESB  Registry as a repository – Loading configuration from external registry  New Transports 50
  • 51. So how does all of these fit together?... What happens with-in WSO2 ESB? 51

  • 59. I would like to see some Use cases where all of these are applied... 59
  • 60. Use Case 1 • Problem – I want to send a notification email whenever there is a request to a particular service which satisfies a set of conditions over the request • Solution – Filter the messages over the request and evaluate the conditions – If the conditions evaluate to true then clone the message – Send the request to the desired endpoint while forwarding a copy (may be after transformation) 60 through the mail transport
  • 62. Use Case 1 - configuration 62
  • 63. Use Case 2 • Problem – I have a service exposed over HTTP transport and now I want the same service to be accessed through JMS • Solution – Expose a proxy service with JMS (and what ever transport) and switch the transport to HTTP (if not http) – Invoke the actual service with HTTP transport – Switch the transport back to JMS of the response message 63
  • 65. Use Case 2 - Configuration 65
  • 66. Use Case 3 • Problem – I want the ESB to invoke several services of the same type for a request, evaluate all the responses and respond me with the best one • Solution – Clone the message and send the requests to different endpoints – Get the responses from all services and aggregate the responses – Select the best out of the aggregated responses and respond to the client 66
  • 68. Use Case 3 - Configuration 68
  • 69. Use Case 3 - Configuration 69
  • 70. Use Case 3 - Configuration 70
  • 71. Use Case 3 - Configuration 71
  • 72. Use Case 3 - Configuration 72
  • 73. Use Case 4 • Problem – I have a non secure service and now I want to expose this service with security • Solution – Expose a proxy service – Add security to that proxy service and specify the policy on which you want to enforce security – Invoke the actual service without security by removing security headers in the request comes to the proxy – Add security for responses from the actual service 73 to client
  • 75. Use Case 4 - Configuration 75
