Following my previous post on the internals of asynchronous and conversational services in Tuscany SCA, which options are available for consuming these services when you cannot use a Tuscany SCA runtime on the client?. Depending on the transport binding used you would expect to find a certain level of standarisation on conversational/asynchronous services implementation, allowing [...]

Sometime ago I wrote about developing applications with SCA on a JBI-based infrastructure, using simple SCA services for that. I’m coming back again with two separate SCA blog posts discussing the usage of more complex services, asynchronous and conversational services: In this post, I provide an example client-server project that implements a conversational and asynchronous [...]

Recently, we have been working quite extensively with Apache Servicemix, a JBI-compliant ESB. One of areas we have been looking into is securing services in general and how to perform ldap-based authentication and authorization for those services in particular. A good starting point to understand Servicemix (SMX) security features can be found here. I will [...]

Jmeter is one of the main tools we use in our projects to create relevant performance tests, and [...]
