NEW QUESTION 10

The Client and Vendor services are agnostic services that are both currently part of multiple service compositions. As a result, these services are sometimes subjected to concurrent access by multiple service consumers.
The Client service primarily provides data access logic to a client database but also coordinates with other services to determine a clients credit rating. The Vendor service provides some data access logic but can also generate various dynamic reports based on specialized business requirements.
After reviewing historical statistics about the runtime activity of the two services, it is discovered that the Client service is serving an ever-increasing number of service consumers. It is regularly timing out, which in turn increases its call rate as service consumers retry their requests. The Vendor serviceoccasionally has difficulty meeting its service-level agreement (SLA) and when this occurs, penalties are assessed.
Recently, the custodian of the Client service was notified that the Client service will be made available to new service consumers external to its service inventory. The Client service will be providing free credit rating scores to any service consumer that connects to the service via the Internet. The Vendor service will remain internal to the service inventory and will not be exposed to external access.
Which of the following statements describes a solution that addresses these issues and requirements?

The API Gateway pattern, together with the Inventory Endpoint pattern, can be applied to the service inventory to establish an inventory endpoint service and an intermediary layer of processing that will be accessed by external service consumers and that will interact with the Client service to process external service consumer requests. The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied to both the Client and Vendor services to increase their availability and scalability.

The Official Endpoint pattern can be applied to the Client service to establish a managed endpoint for consumption by service consumers external to the service inventory. The Concurrent Contracts pattern can be applied to the Vendor service, enabling it to connect with alternative Client service implementation, should the first attempt to connect fail.

The State Repository pattern can be applied to the Client and Vendor services to establish a central statement management database that can be used to overcome runtime performance problems. The Official Endpoint pattern can be further applied to increase the availability and scalability of the Client service for service consumers external to the service inventory.

The Microservice Deployment pattern is applied to the Client service to improve its autonomy and responsiveness to a greater range of service consumers. The Containerization pattern is applied to the Vendor service to establish a managed environment with a high degree of isolation for its report-related processing. The Endpoint Redirection pattern is further applied to ensure that request messages from service consumers outside of the service inventory are redirected away from the Client service.

NEW QUESTION 11

Service Consumer A sends Service A a message containing a business document (1). The business document is received by Component A, which keeps the business document in memory and forwards a copy to Component B (3). Component B first writes portions of the business document to Database A (4). Component B then writes the entire business document to Database B and uses some of the data values from the business document as query parameters to retrieve new data from Database B (5).
Next, Component B returns the new date* back to Component A (6), which merges it together with the original business document it has been keeping in memory and then writes the combined data to Database C (7). The Service A service capability invoked by Service Consumer A requires a synchronousrequest-response data exchange. Therefore, based on the outcome of the last database update, Service A returns a message with a success or failure code back to Service Consumer A (8).
Databases A and B are shared, and Database C is dedicated to the Service A service architecture.
There are several problems with this architecture. The business document that Component A is required to keep in memory (while it waits for Component B to complete its processing) can be very large. The amount of runtime resources Service A uses to keep this data in memory can decrease the overall performance of all service instances, especially when it is concurrently invoked by multiple service consumers. Additionally, Service A can take a long time to respond back to Service Consumer A because Database A is a shared database that sometimes takes a long time to respond to Component B. Currently, Service Consumer A will wait for up to 30 seconds for a response, after which it will assume the request to Service A has failed and any subsequent response messages from Service A will be rejected.
What steps can be taken to solve these problems?

The Service Statelessness principle can be applied together with the State Repository pattern to extend Database C so that it also becomes a state database allowing Component A to temporarily defer the business document data while it waits for a response from Component B. The Service Autonomy principle can be applied together with the Legacy Wrapper pattern to isolate Database A so that it is encapsulated by a separate wrapper utility service. The Compensating Service Transaction pattern can be applied so that whenever Service A’s response time exceeds 30 seconds, a notification is sent to a human administrator to raise awareness of the fact that the eventual response of Service A will be rejected by Service Consumer A.

The Service Statelessness principle can be applied together with the State Repository pattern to establish a state database to which Component A can defer the business document data to while it waits for a response from Component B. The Service Autonomy principle can be applied together with the Service Data Replication pattern to establish a dedicated replicated database for Component B to access instead of shared Database A. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to establish a message queue between Service Consumer A and Service A so that Service Consumer A does not need to remain stateful while it waits for a response from Service A.

The Service Statelessness principle can be applied together with the State Repository pattern to establish a state database to which Component A can defer the business document data while it waits for a response from Component B. The Service Autonomy principle can be applied together with the Service Abstraction principle, the Legacy Wrapper pattern, and the Service Fagade pattern in order to isolate Database A so that it is encapsulated by a separate wrapper utility service and to hide the Database A implementation from Service A and to position a fagade component between Component B and the new wrapper service. This fagade component will be responsible for compensating the unpredictable behavior of Database A.

None of the above.

NEW QUESTION 12

Our service inventory contains the following three services that provide Invoice-related data access capabilities: Invoice, InvProc and Proclnv. These services were created at different times by different project teams and were not required to comply with any design standards. Therefore, each of these services has a different data model for representing invoice data.
Currently, each of these three services has a different service consumer: Service Consumer A accesses the Invoice service (1), Service Consumer B (2) accesses the InvProc service, and Service Consumer C (3) accesses the Proclnv service. Each service consumer invokes a data access capability of an invoice-related service, requiring that service to interact with the shared accounting database that is used by all invoice-related services (4, 5, 6).
Additionally, Service Consumer D was designed to access invoice data from the shared accounting database directly (7). (Within the context of this architecture, Service Consumer D is labeled as a service consumer because it is accessing a resource that is related to the illustrated service architectures.) Assuming that the Invoice service, InvProc service and Proclnv service are part of the same service inventory, what steps would be required to fully apply the Official Endpoint pattern?

One of the invoice-related services needs to be chosen as the official service providing invoice data access capabilities. Service Consumers A, B, and C then need to be redesigned to only access the chosen invoice-related service. Because Service Consumer D does not rely on an invoice-related service, it is not affected by the Official Endpoint pattern and can continue to access the accounting database directly. The Service Abstraction principle can be further applied to hide the existence of the shared accounting database and other implementation details from current and future service consumers.

One of the invoice-related services needs to be chosen as the official service providing invoice data access capabilities and logic from the other two services needs to be moved to execute within the context of the official Invoice service. Service Consumers A, B, and C then need to be redesigned to only access the chosen invoice-related service. Service Consumer D also needs to be redesigned to not access the shared accounting database directly, but to also perform its data access by interacting with the official invoice-related service. The Service Abstraction principle can be further applied to hide the existence of the shared accounting database and other implementation details from current and future service consumers.

Because Service Consumers A, B, and C are already carrying out their data access via published contracts, they are not affected by the Official Endpoint pattern. Service Consumer D needs to be redesigned so that it does not access the shared accounting database directly, but instead performs its data access by interacting with the official invoice-related service. The Service Abstraction principle can be further applied to hide the existence of the shared accounting database and other implementation details from current and future service consumers.

One of the invoice-related services needs to be chosen as the official service providing invoice data access capabilities. Because Service Consumer D does not rely on an invoice-related service, it is not affected by the Official Endpoint pattern and can continue to access the accounting database directly.
The Service Loose Coupling principle can be further applied to decouple Service Consumers A, B, and C from the shared accounting database and other implementation details.

NEW QUESTION 13

Service A is a utility service that provides generic data access logic to a database containing data that is periodically replicated from a shared database (1). Because the Standardized Service Contract principle was applied to the design of Service A, its service contract has been fully standardized.
The service architecture of Service A Is being accessed by three service consumers. Service Consumer A accesses a component that is partof the Service A Implementation by Invoking it directly (2). Service Consumer B invokes Service A by accessing Its service contract (3). Service Consumer C directly accesses the replicated database that Is part of the Service A Implementation (4).
You’ve been told that the reason Service Consumers A and C bypass the published Service A service contract is because, for security reasons, they are not allowed to access a subset of the capabilities inthe API that comprises the Service A service contract. How can the Service A architecture be changed to enforce these security restrictions while avoiding negative forms of coupling?

The Contract Centralization pattern can be applied to force all service consumers to access the Service A architecture via its published service contract. This will prevent negative forms of coupling that could lead to problems when the database is replaced. The Service Abstraction principle can then be applied to hide underlying service architecture details so that future service consumers cannot be designed to access any part of the underlying service implementation.

The Contract Centralization pattern can be applied to force service consumers to access the Service A architecture via its published service contract only. The Service Loose Coupling principle can then be applied to ensure that the centralized service contract does not contain any content that is dependent on or derived from the underlying service implementation.

The Contract Centralization pattern can be applied to force service consumers to access the Service A architecture via its published service contract only. The Concurrent Contracts pattern can be applied to Service A in order to establish one or more alternative service contracts. This allows service consumers with different levels of authorization to access different types of service logic via Service A’s published service contracts.

The Contract Centralization pattern can be applied to force service consumers to access the Service A architecture via its published service contract only. The Idempotent Capability pattern can be applied to Service A to establish alternative sets of service capabilities for service consumers with different levels of authorization.

NEW QUESTION 14
Refer to Exhibit.

Service A is a task service that is required to carry out a series of updates to a set of databases in order to complete a task. To perform the database updates. Service A must interact with three other services that each provides standardized data access capabilities.
Service A sends its first update request message to Service B (1), which then responds with a message containing either a success or failure code (2). Service A then sends its second update request message to Service C (3), which also responds with a message containing either a success or failure code (4). Finally, Service A sends a request message to Service D (5), which responds with its own message containing either a success or failure code (6).
Services B, C and D are agnostic services that are reused and shared by multiple service consumers. This has caused unacceptable performance degradation for the service consumers of Service A as it is taking too long to complete its overall task. You’ve been asked to enhance the service composition architecture so that Service A provides consistent and predictable runtime performance. You are furthermore notified that a new type of data will be introduced to all three databases. It is important that this data is exchanged in a standardized manner so that the data model used for the data in inter-service messages is the same.
What steps can be taken to fulfill these requirements?

The Compensating Service Transaction pattern can be applied so that exception logic is executed to notify Service A whenever the data access logic executed by Service B, C, or D takes too long. If the execution time exceeds a predefined limit, then the overall service activity is cancelled and a failure code is returned to Service A. The Schema Centralization pattern is applied to ensure that all services involved in the composition use the same schemas to represented the data consistently.

The Composition Autonomy pattern can be applied to establish an isolated environment in which redundant implementations of Services B, C and D are accessed only by Service A. The Canonical Schema pattern can be applied to ensure that the new type of data is represented by the same data model, regardless of which service sends or receives a message containing the data.

The Redundant Implementation pattern is applied to Service A, along with the Service Instance Routing pattern. This allows for multiple instances of Service A to be created across multiple physical implementations, thereby increasing scalability and availability. The Dual Protocols pattern is applied to all services to support proprietary and standardized data models.

The Service Fagade pattern is applied to all services in order to create an intermediary processing layer within each service architecture. The Content Negotiation pattern is applied so that each service fagade component within each service architecture is equipped with the logic required to defer request messages to other service instances when concurrent usage of the service is high, and to further apply the conversation logic necessary to convert proprietary data from a database into the standardized XML schema format.

NEW QUESTION 16

Service A is a task service that sends Service B a message (2) requesting that Service B return data back to Service A in a response message (3). Depending on the response received, Service A may be required to send a message to Service C (4) for which it requires no response.
Before it contacts Service B, Service A must first retrieve a list of code values from its own database (1) and then place this data into its own memory. If it turns out that it must send a message to Service C, then Service A must combine the data it receives from Service B with the data from the code value list in order to create the message it sends to Service C. If Service A is not required to invoke Service C, it can complete its task by discarding the code values.
Service A and Service C reside in Service Inventory A. Service B resides in Service Inventory B.
You are told that the services in Service Inventory A were designed with service contracts that are based on different design standards and technologies than the services In Service Inventory B. As a result,Service A is a SOAP-based Web service and Service B Is a REST service that exchanges JSON-formatted messages.
Therefore, Service A and Service B cannot currently communicate. Furthermore, Service C is an agnostic service that is heavily accessed by many concurrent service consumers. Service C frequently reaches its usage thresholds, during which it is not available and messages sent to it are not received.
What steps can be taken to solve these problems?

The Data Model Transformation pattern can be applied by establishing an intermediate processing layer between Service A and Service B that can transform a message from one data model to another at runtime. The Intermediate Routing and Service Agent patterns can be applied so that when Service B sends a response message, a service agent can intercept the message and, based on its contents, either forward the message to Service A or route the message to Service C. The Service Autonomy principle can be further applied to Service C together with the Redundant Implementation pattern to help establish a more reliable and scalable service architecture.

The Data Format Transformation pattern can be applied by establishing an intermediate processing layer between Service A and Service B that can transform a message from one data format to another at runtime. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to establish an intermediate queue between Service A and Service C so that when Service A needs to send a message to Service C, the queue will store the message and retransmit it to Service C until it is successfully delivered. The Service Autonomy principle can be further applied to Service C together with the Redundant Implementation pattern to help establish a more reliable and scalable service architecture.

NEW QUESTION 17

Service Consumer A and Service A reside in Service Inventory A. Service B and Service C reside in Service Inventory B. Service D is a public service that can be openly accessed via the World Wide Web. The service is also available for purchase so that it can be deployed independently within IT enterprises. Due to the rigorous application of the Service Abstraction principle within Service Inventory B, the only information that is made available about Service B and Service C are the published service contracts. For Service D, the service contract plus a service level agreement (SLA) are made available. The SLA indicates that Service D has a planned outage every night from 11:00pm to midnight.
You are an architect with a project team that is building services for Service Inventory A. You are told that the owners of Service Inventory A and Service Inventory B are not generally cooperative or communicative.
Cross-inventory service composition is tolerated, but not directly supported. As a result, no SLAs for Service B and Service C are available and you have no knowledge about how available these services are. Based on the service contracts you can determine that the services in Service Inventory B use different data models and a different transport protocol than the services in Service Inventory A. Furthermore, recent testing results have shown that the performance of Service D is highly unpredictable due to the heavy amount of concurrent access it receives from service consumers from other organizations. You are also told that there is a concern over how long Service Consumer A will need to remain stateful while waiting for a response from Service A.
What steps can be taken to solve these problems?

The Event-Driven Messaging pattern can be applied to establish a subscriber-publisher relationship between Service Consumer A and Service A. This gives Service A the flexibility to provide its response to Service Consumer A whenever it is able to collect the three data values without having to require that Service Consumer A remain stateful. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to position a central messaging queue between Service A and Service B and between Service A and Service C. The Data Model Transformation and Protocol Bridging patterns can be applied to enable communication between Service A and Service B and between Service A and Service C. The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied so that a copy of Service D is brought in-house and made part of Service Inventory A.

The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to position a central messaging queue between Service A and Service B and between Service A and Service C and so that a separate messaging queue is positioned between Service A and Service Consumer A. The Data Model Transformation and Protocol Bridging patterns can be applied to enable communication between Service A and Service B and between Service A and Service C. The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied so that a copy of Service D is brought in-house. The Legacy Wrapper pattern can be further applied to wrap Service D with a standardized service contract that is in compliance with the design standards used in Service Inventory A.

The Containerization pattern can be applied to establish an environment for Service A to perform its processing autonomously. This gives Service A the flexibility to provide Service Consumer A with response messages consistently.

NEW QUESTION 18

Service A is an entity service that provides a Get capability which returns a data value that is frequently changed.
Service Consumer A invokes Service A in order to request this data value (1). For Service A to carry out this request, it must invoke Service B (2), a utility service that interacts (3, 4) with the database in which the data value is stored. Regardless of whether the data value changed, Service B returns the latest value to Service A (5), and Service A returns the latest value to Service Consumer A (6).
The data value is changed when the legacy client program updates the database (7). When this change will occur is not predictable. Note also that Service A and Service B are not always available at the same time.
Any time the data value changes, Service Consumer A needs to receive It as soon as possible. Therefore, Service Consumer A initiates the message exchange shown In the figure several times a day. When it receives the same data value as before, the response from Service A Is ignored. When Service A provides an updated data value, Service Consumer A can process it to carry out its task.
The current service composition architecture is using up too many resources due to the repeated invocation of Service A by Service Consumer A and the resulting message exchanges that occur with each invocation.
What steps can be taken to solve this problem?

The Event-Driven Messaging pattern can be applied by establishing a subscriber-publisher relationship between Service A and Service B. This way, every time the data value is updated, an event is triggered and Service B, acting as the publisher, can notify Service A, which acts as the subscriber. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied between Service A and Service B so that the event notification message sent out by Service B will be received by Service A, even when Service A is unavailable.

The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied so that messaging queues are established between Service A and Service B and between Service Consumer A and Service A. This way, messages are never lost due to the unavailability of Service A or Service B.

The Event-Driven Messaging pattern can be applied by establishing a subscriber-publisher relationship between Service Consumer A and a database monitoring agent introduced through the application of the Service Agent pattern. The database monitoring agent monitors updates made by the legacy client to the database. This way, every time the data value is updated, an event is triggered and the database monitoring agent, acting as the publisher, can notify Service Consumer A, which acts as the subscriber.
The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied between Service Consumer A and the database monitoring agent so that the event notification message sent out by the database monitoring agent will be received by Service Consumer A, even when Service Consumer A is unavailable.

NEW QUESTION 19

Service A is an entity service that provides a set of generic and reusable service capabilities. In order to carry out the functionality of any one of its service capabilities, Service A is required to compose Service B (1) and Service C (2), and Service A is required to access Database A (3), Database B (4), and Database C (5). These three databases are shared by other applications within the IT enterprise.
All of service capabilities provided by Service A are synchronous, which means that for each request a service consumer makes, Service A is required to issue a response message after all of the processing has completed.
Service A is one of many entity services that reside In a highly normalized service Inventory. Because Service A provides agnostic logic, it is heavily reused and is currently part of many service compositions.
You are told that Service A has recently become unstable and unreliable. The problem has been traced to two issues with the current service architecture. First, Service B, which Is also an entity service, is being increasingly reused and has itself become unstable and unreliable. When Service B fails, the failure is carried over to Service A. Secondly, shared Database B has a complex data model. Some of the queries issued by Service A to shared Database B can take a very long time to complete.
What steps can be taken to solve these problems without compromising the normalization of the service inventory?

The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied to Service A, thereby making duplicate deployments of the service available. This way, when one implementation of Service A is too busy, another implementation can be accessed by service consumers instead. The Service Data Replicationpattern can be applied to establish a dedicated database that contains an exact copy of the data from shared Database B that is required by Service A.

NEW QUESTION 20
Refer to Exhibit.

Service Consumer A sends a message to Service A. There are currently three duplicate implementations of Service A (Implementation 1, Implementation 2 and Implementation 3). The message sent by Service Consumer A is intercepted by Service Agent A (1), which determines at runtime which implementation of Service A to forward the message to. All three implementations of Service A reside on the same physical server.
You are told that despite the fact that duplicate implementations of Service A exist, performance is still poor at times. You are also informed that a new service capability will soon need to be added to Service A to introduce functionality that will require access to a shared database being used by many other clients and applications in the IT enterprise. This is expected to add further performance demands on Service A.
How can this service architecture be changed to improve performance in preparation for the addition of the new service capability?

The Standardized Service Contract principle can be applied to ensure that the new service capability extends the existing service contract in a manner that is compliant with current design standards. The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied to establish separate implementations of Service A that include duplicate databases with copies of the data that Service A requires from the shared database.

The Service Autonomy principle can be applied to further isolate the individual implementations of Service A by separating them onto different physical servers. When the new service capability is added, the Service Data Replication pattern can be applied to give each implementation of Service A its own copy of the data it requires from the shared database.

The Service Loose Coupling principle can be applied together with the Standardized Service Contract principle to ensure that Service Consumer A is not indirectly coupled to the shared database after the new service capability is added to the service contract. The Legacy Wrapper pattern can be applied to establish a new utility service that will provide standardized data access service capabilities for the shared database.

The Service Autonomy principle can be applied to further isolate the individual implementations of Service A by separating them onto different physical servers. When the new service capability is added, the State Repository pattern can be applied to give each implementation of Service A its own copy of the data it requires from the shared database.

NEW QUESTION 21
Refer to Exhibit.

The Client and Vendor services are agnostic services that are both currently part of multiple service compositions. As a result, these services are sometimes subjected to concurrent access by multiple service consumers.
The Client service primarily provides data access logic to a client database but also coordinates with other services to determine a clients credit rating. The Vendor service provides some data access logic but can also generate various dynamic reports based on specialized business requirements.
After reviewing historical statistics about the runtime activity of the two services, it is discovered that the Client service is serving an ever-increasing number of service consumers. It is regularly timing out, which in turn increases its call rate as service consumers retry their requests. The Vendor service occasionally has difficulty meeting its service-level agreement (SLA) and when this occurs, penalties are assessed.
Recently, the custodian of the Client service was notified that the Client service will be made available to new service consumers external to its service inventory. The Client service will be providing free credit rating scores to any service consumer that connects to the service via the Internet. The Vendor service will remain internal to the service inventory and will not be exposed to external access.
Which of the following statements describes a solution that addresses these issues and requirements?

The API Gateway pattern, together with the Inventory Endpoint pattern, can be applied to the service inventory to establish an inventory endpoint service and an intermediary layer of processing that will be accessed by external service consumers and that will interact with the Client service to process external service consumer requests. The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied to both the Client and Vendor services to increase their availability and scalability.

The Official Endpoint pattern can be applied to the Client service to establish a managed endpoint for consumption by service consumers external to the service inventory. The Concurrent Contracts pattern can be applied to the Vendor service, enabling it to connect with alternative Client service implementation, should the first attempt to connect fail.

The State Repository pattern can be applied to the Client and Vendor services to establish a central statement management database that can be used to overcome runtime performance problems. The Official Endpoint pattern can be further applied to increase the availability and scalability of the Client service for service consumers external to the service inventory.

The Microservice Deployment pattern is applied to the Client service to improve its autonomy and responsiveness to a greater range of service consumers. The Containerization pattern is applied to the Vendor service to establish a managed environment with a high degree of isolation for its report-related processing. The Endpoint Redirection pattern is further applied to ensure that request messages from service consumers outside of the service inventory are redirected away from the Client service.

NEW QUESTION 22
Refer to Exhibit.

Services A, B, and C are non-agnostic task services. Service A and Service B use the same shared state database to defer their state data at runtime.
An assessment of the three services reveals that each contains some agnostic logic that cannot be made available for reuse because it is bundled together with non-agnostic logic.
The assessment also determines that because Service A, Service B and the shared state database are each located in physically separate environments, the remote communication required for Service A and Service B to interact with the shared state database is causing an unreasonable decrease in runtime performance.
How can the application of the Orchestration pattern improve this architecture?

The application of the Orchestration pattern will result in an environment whereby the Official Endpoint, State Repository, and Service Data Replication patterns are automatically applied, allowing the shared state database to be replicated via official service endpoints for Services A and B so that each task service can have its own dedicated state database.

The application of the Orchestration pattern will result in an environment whereby the non-agnostic logic can be cleanly separated from the agnostic logic that exists in Services A, B, and C, resulting in the need to design new agnostic services with reuse potential assured through the application of the Service Reusability principle. The State Repository pattern, which is supported by and local to the orchestration environment, provides a central state database that can be shared by Services A and B. The local state database avoids problems with remote communication.

The application of the Orchestration pattern will result in an environment whereby the Compensating Service Transaction is automatically applied, resulting In the opportunity to create sophisticated exception logic that can be used to compensate for the performance problems caused by Services A and B having to remotely access the state database. The API Gateway and Service Broker patterns are also automatically applied, providing common transformation functions in a centralized processing layer to help overcome any disparity in the service contracts that will need to be created for the new agnostic services.

The Orchestration pattern is not applicable to this architecture because it does not support the hosting of the required state repository.

NEW QUESTION 23
Refer to Exhibit.

Service Consumer A and Service A reside in Service Inventory A. Service B and Service C reside in Service Inventory B. Service D is a public service that can be openly accessed via the World Wide Web. The service is also available for purchase so that it can be deployed independently within IT enterprises. Due to the rigorous application of the Service Abstraction principle within Service Inventory B, the only information that is made available about Service B and Service C are the published service contracts. For Service D, the service contract plus a service level agreement (SLA) are made available. The SLA indicates that Service D has a planned outage every night from 11:00pm to midnight.
You are an architect with a project team that is building services for Service Inventory A. You are told that the owners of Service Inventory A and Service Inventory B are not generally cooperative or communicative. Cross-inventory service composition is tolerated, but not directly supported. As a result, no SLAs for Service B and Service C are available and you have no knowledge about how available these services are. Based on the service contracts you can determine that the services in Service Inventory B use different data models and a different transport protocol than the services in Service Inventory A. Furthermore, recent testing results have shown that the performance of Service D is highly unpredictable due to the heavy amount of concurrent access it receives from service consumers from other organizations. You are also told that there is a concern over how long Service Consumer A will need to remain stateful while waiting for a response from Service A.
What steps can be taken to solve these problems?

The Event-Driven Messaging pattern can be applied to establish a subscriber-publisher relationship between Service Consumer A and Service A. This gives Service A the flexibility to provide its response to Service Consumer A whenever it is able to collect the three data values without having to require that Service Consumer A remain stateful. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to position a central messaging queue between Service A and Service B and between Service A and Service C. The Data Model Transformation and Protocol Bridging patterns can be applied to enable communication between Service A and Service B and between Service A and Service C. The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied so that a copy of Service D is brought in-house and made part of Service Inventory A.

The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to position a central messaging queue between Service A and Service B and between Service A and Service C and so that a separate messaging queue is positioned between Service A and Service Consumer A. The Data Model Transformation and Protocol Bridging patterns can be applied to enable communication between Service A and Service B and between Service A and Service C. The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied so that a copy of Service D is brought in-house. The Legacy Wrapper pattern can be further applied to wrap Service D with a standardized service contract that is in compliance with the design standards used in Service Inventory A.

The Containerization pattern can be applied to establish an environment for Service A to perform its processing autonomously. This gives Service A the flexibility to provide Service Consumer A with response messages consistently. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied so that a central messaging queue is positioned between Service A and Service B, between Service A and Service C, and between Service A and Service D. The Data Model Transformation and Protocol Bridging patterns can be applied to enable communication between Service A and Service B and between Service A and Service C.

The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to position a message queue between Service A and Service B, between Service A and Service C, and between Service A and Service D. Additionally, a separate messaging queue is positioned between Service A and Service Consumer A. The Data Model Transformation and Protocol Bridging patterns can be applied to enable communication between Service A and Service B, between Service A and Service C, and between Service A and Service D. The Redundant Implementation pattern can be applied so that a copy of Service D is brought in-house. The Legacy Wrapper pattern can be further applied to wrap Service D with a standardized service contract that is in compliance with the design standards used in Service Inventory B.
