Realizing Business Flexibility Through Integrated SOA Policy Management
Executive summary
Increasingly, companies are looking to service-oriented architecture (SOA) to reconcile and unify IT systems and business processes, and to support a more flexible and agile business. But the benefts of SOA are sometimes not immediately visible because it takes time to clearly defne sets of governance processes and business goals, and to establish a way to enforce and monitor processes and goals.
Within SOA governance, policy management makes business and technical decisions visible to the organization. Good SOA management practices enable business and IT to converge on a common strategy to achieve SOA. And using policy management, rather than hard coding application logic, to achieve business goals can drive business agility and fexibility.
Increasingly, companies are looking to service-oriented architecture (SOA) to reconcile and unify IT systems and business processes, and to support a more flexible and agile business. But the benefts of SOA are sometimes not immediately visible because it takes time to clearly defne sets of governance processes and business goals, and to establish a way to enforce and monitor processes and goals.
Policy management, however, can be a powerful vehicle to achieve a SOA evolution. It plays a key role in enabling SOA governance practices, designed to help businesses identify and focus on key critical services. Adding policies establishes points of control and agility for business and IT, accelerating the adoption of SOA solutions by providing fexibility and responsiveness.
IBM defnes SOA policy management as a methodology and a set of elements (software architecture, tools, infrastructure and processes) in an SOA solution that focus on the consistent authoring, transformation, deployment, enforcement, monitoring, and auditing of directives and requirements related to the operation of SOA-based services. Key activities for SOA policy management include the expression of a desired state—or an action to be performed—that
is recognizable by humans; the creation of elements and attributes that can be understood and automated by machines; and the enforcement and monitoring of a desired state or action.

ALM Software Solutions for Green IT
Going green beyond the data center
Being a responsible corporate citizen today means more than reducing smokestack emissions and toxic waste. There must be a concerted effort to further reduce damaging carbon emissions throughout the enterprise. As such, visionary organizations are building a business case for using renewable energy sources for designing and producing energy efficient products. “Green” initiatives are being driven not only by the obvious threats to the environment and climate, but also by environmentally conscious customers who prefer to buy green products and do business with green manufacturers.
Being a responsible corporate citizen today means more than reducing smokestack emissions and toxic waste.

As such, visionary organizations are building a business case for using renewable energy sources for designing and producing energy efficient products. “Green” initiatives are being driven not only by the obvious threats to the environment and climate, but also by environmentally conscious customers who prefer to buy green products and do business with green manufacturers.
In pursuing “green IT,” technology organizations in particular have already made an excellent start with initiatives to more efficiently manage power and cooling in data centers. Again, visionary organizations in this sector are seeking to take green IT to a higher level as they pursue an environmentally conscious approach to managing software applications and the processes they support. This white paper will explore best practices for green IT and how Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) can help companies achieve green IT processes for software application management. It will discuss how IBM Rational provides integrated ALM and software delivery solutions that support green IT, including those offered through the Telelogic portfolio:
- Telelogicо System Architectо, which can help with green organizational transformation
- Telelogic Rhapsody, which can assist you with supports green application development
- Telelogic DOORS, which can aid in traceability to regulations to prove compliance
- Telelogic Focal Point™, which can help you align business priorities with product and portfolio management
- Telelogic Synergy™ and Telelogic Change™ which can help integrate your global systems development and change management
This paper will also illustrate the benefits of ALM solutions using examples of IBM customers who have successfully achieved green IT best practices.
Requirements engineering for the aerospace and defense industry
Requirements engineering is a vital process that helps companies manage complex requirements, improve team collaboration and ultimately produce high-quality products more cost-effectively. This white paper explores requirements engineering and its important role in product development and engineering in the aerospace and defense segment. It discusses the best practices and benefits of requirements engineering, how they can be achieved through solutions from IBM, and how they can help manufacturers of systems for the aerospace and defense industry overcome today’s quality and cost challenges. Case studies illustrate how leading aerospace and defense manufacturers have improved communication and collaboration through the requirements engineering process using IBM Rational® DOORS® requirements management software, resulting in increased productivity, time and cost savings, and a higher-quality end product.

IBM White paper: ClearCase 7.x and Rhapsody: Supported Integrations
Abstract
This white paper provides details to help you implement supported integrations of IBM Rational ClearCase 7.x with Telelogic Rhapsody.
Content
IBM Rational ClearCase can be successfully integrated with Telelogic Rhapsody for the versioning and merging of Rhapsody unit files within an environment that is properly configured to support that integration.
This white paper provides details about how to setup a supported integration using ClearCase custom type managers that are specifically configured to work with the integration.

Model-driven architecture, embedded developers and IBM Rational Rhapsody
Model-driven architecture (MDA) is a software development approach that uses models to perform tasks such as specification writing and application development. The approach enables developers to separate system functionality and behavior from implementation details.
IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® software’s key enabling technologies focus on the needs of embedded developers. Rhapsody software enables embedded developers to easily separate functionality and behavior from implementation detail in order to get more out of the MDA process.
The integration of FSAM into federal enterprise architecture programs
This white paper examines the impact of Federal Segment Architecture Methodology (FSAM) on federal enterprise architecture programs and explores the challenges and benefits of fully integrating this segment approach to provide business value. The paper describes how the IBM® Rational® System Architect® and IBM Cognos® solutions can help clients respond to the new FSAM requirement.
