A component-based orchestration management framework for multidomain SOA

Abstract

Business Process Outsourcing is nowadays common in companies. In particular, the distribution of such business processes encompasses the inclusion of external service providers in the overall process as well as the usage of external infrastructures like clouds. Both of these approaches lead to decentralization and outsourcing of a part of the global workflow, resulting in a complexified management of the global orchestration. As a matter of fact, the overall management data are decentralized among different domains and must, most of the time, be gathered manually. This paper presents a framework that eases multi-domain orchestration management. Our approach extracts, gathers and digests data from the decentralized processes in order to provide an unified and global view of a distributed orchestration.
