h2. Projects for the budding contributor...
This page enlists some ideas that can be taken up for implementation and
contribution, by anybody interested in Apache Tuscany - University Students,
SCA and SOA enthusiasts...
h3. {color:#003366}1. Consuming SCA services from Google Gadgets{color}
Summary : Integrate Tuscany and Apache Shindig to mash-up Google gadgets and
backend SCA service components (Web Services, existing JEE services etc)
Use SCA to model references from Javascript gadgets to server-side services,
and provide transparent access to these services (by injecting Javascript
proxies into the gadgets, similar to what Tuscany currently does with its SCA
Widget component support).
Use SCA composites to configure and assemble the gadgets together as well,
allowing the application developer to use a consistent SCA-based assembly model
for client-side mashups, server-side compositions and mixes of the two.
One possible scenario would be to construct a Stock Quote widget, that would
get the quotes trough a SCA Service
h3. {color:#003366}2. Data Feeds and Data Services{color}
Summary : Extend the Tuscany Atom Binding to work with data from relational
databases to provide data services. This could be done by completing/enhancing
the experimental Tuscany Data component type.
One possible scenario would be to modify the store sample/tutorial to provide a
Catalog implementation exposing catalog rows from a relation database.
h3. {color:#003366}3.Integrate Java SCA with PHP{color}
PHP PECL project provides a PHP implementation of the Service Component
Architecture (SCA) programming model (see [WWW]
http://pecl.php.net/package/SCA_SDO). SCA is a programming model which allows
you to assemble applications using a Service-Oriented Architecture style. This
includes producing and consuming Web services of various types, including
soap/http, json-rpc, REST,Atom. Looking into the Tuscany Apache Incubator
project (see [WWW] http://incubator.apache.org/tuscany/ ), which provides a
Java-based implementation of SCA. This runtime is extensible for different
implementation types, and currently supports things like BPEL, OSGi, Java
(POJOs), Spring, JavaScript and XQuery.
I think it would make a very interesting and challenging project to extend
Apache Tuscany to supports the concept of a PHP implementation type. This
implementation type would be used to include PHP SCA enabled applications in an
assembly which might also include any of the other Apache Tuscany
implementation types. A realistic scenario for this solution might be a PHP Web
front end to a Java business application. Tuscany includes a Java "store"
application which could be converted to demonstrate the final deliverables. The
solution would also require extensions to the PHP SCA project to enable
existing PHP SCA service configuration to be externally overridden by Tuscany.
The major work items would be as follows:
* Extend PHP SCA to support external configuration of services (PHP Scripting
skills).
* Extend Apache Tuscany to provide a PHP implementation type (Java and XML/XML
Schema skills).
* Extend Apache Tuscany to support PHP SCA as a deployment target(Java skills).
h3. {color:#003366}4.Integrate Java SCA and JBI{color}
Build some Tuscany extensions to integrate JBI components into SCA - eg an SCA
binding extension that supports running JBI binding components and maybe an SCA
implementation extension that supports running JBI service engines. Both
Tuscany/SCA and JBI have the concept of plugable extensions so these Tuscany
extensions would be kind of adapters from the Tuscany extension APIs to the JBI
APIs and you'd end up being able to drop a standard JBI binding component jar
into the Tuscany runtime and have that used in an SCA assembly.
h3. {color:#003366}5.Bring Native SCA project to Spec 1.0 level{color}
Help is needed to enhance Native SCA to support spec 1.0 level.
h3. {color:#003366}6.Ability to use C++ and Java in a composition{color}
Integration between Native SCA and Java SCA. The ability to use legacy or new
C++ type applications and integrate them into overall SOA solution which is
composed of Java and C++.
h3. {color:#003366}7.Interop with .Net{color}
How to integrate with .net.
h3. {color:#003366}8. Contribute to projects under roadmaps{color}
