SERVICE-ORIENTED ARCHITECTURE
(Submitted by: Geetika, 14478)
INTRODUCTION:
An emerging approach that addresses the requirement of distributed computing is Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) [1]. In other words, SOA is that style of architecture whose aim is to achieve loose coupling [] among all the software agents which are interacting with each other [2]. A service is work done by a service provider to fulfil the request made by the consumer of that service. Both service consumer and service provider are software agents which are working on behalf of their owners. Software resources in an SOA are packaged as “services”. Services are self contained modules which provide standard business functionality and are independent of other services.

When this problem came in the notice of researchers, they introduced the concept of modular programming in which programmers could write subroutines or functions and can reuse them wherever required. But this cutting and pasting of modules into other applications made maintenance very difficult; for if, there comes an error the whole application needed to be tracked down to find that error. After that, deployment became a problem because developers wanted higher level of abstraction. Again, developers wanted a way to reuse and maintain functionality and not just the code. Component-based software was a solution to all this but it did not address all the problems developers were facing. Today, many issues are faced which include distributed software, application integration, varying platforms, varying protocols, various devices, internet etc. Today’s software should be capable enough to solve all the above problems and SOA is a solution to it. Adoption of SOA helps in the integration of applications faultlessly.
ARCHITECTURE OF SOA:
The architecture of SOA is as given in the following figure. It consists of two layers- horizontal and vertical which are further divided into sub layers.
A platform-independent interface entails that a client using any type of Operating System or in any language can consume the service. Dynamic discovery

Governance - IT strategy is governed to each horizontal layer to achieve required operating and capability model.
COMPONENTS OF SOA:
Components of SOA comprises of four things namely, message, service, dynamic discovery and web-services. Each of these plays an important role in SOA [soaexp].
• SERVICES: A service in SOA has three properties:
a. The interface used for the service should be platform-independent.
b. The services can be located and invoked vigorously.
c. The service is responsible for maintaining its own state.
• MESSAGES: Service providers and consumers communicate through messages. Because the platform and language at which services are processed is independent of platform, the messages that are sent and accepted should also be platform independent. The messages are constructed using XML document. XML is responsible for providing functionality, granularity and scalability required by messages.
• DYNAMIC DISCOVERY: Dynamic Discovery acts as an intermediate between service provider and service consumer. Providers register their services with dynamic discovery while consumers query it to find the service appropriate to its request. Most directory services categorize themselves based on some criteria so as to make the search
There are 2 modules: User Module Client application consist of the application on the user side. This application has the login page to register for new client. Th application communication with the server using internet connection. The application acts as a guide for direct him to his parking slot. After login in the application the user need to enter a field of its duration time which is send to the server.
In the architecture, there are different modules like- Prime number generation and test by Rabin-Miller module, initial key-exchange and authentication, secure communication initiation, peer to peer authentication, hybrid encryption and hybrid decryption module and third party module. Another new aspect is challenger module will only allow one client to securely communicate with the server so communication architecture is peer to peer only but multiple clients can try to connect, so they will be connected to server but will not be authenticated to start messaging they have to wait for authenticated communication clearance one by one. Here the flow diagrams are described in two parts –First in Fig. 1 the generic communication model and in Fig.

1- A caller contacts a master server, and signals that they would like to establish a call with a responder. 2- The responder receives an encrypted signal, connects to the master server, and indicates that it has received the call signal. 3- If the responder chooses to answer the call, then it is relayed through the closest available relay server.
As such, this protocol operates at the data link layer of the OSI model. L2TP consists
A logical topology describes how software controls access to a network and the sharing of its specific resources such as applications and databases. Both a physical and logical topology are necessary to complete the whole of a network’s functionality. A network cannot exist without setting up and configuring its hardware and software so that the various parts of the whole work together
Goals of the Lab This lab has many different overall goals that are meant to introduce us to the challenges and procedures of building a preliminary enterprise environment from the ground up. Each task has it’s own set of goals that expose us to important areas of system administration in this type of environment. The lab first introduces us to installation and configuration of an edge routing device meant to handle all internal network traffic between devices, and allow access out to an external network, in our case the Internet. The lab then introduces installation of an enterprise Linux distribution, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, which will be used as the main Linux based server in our enterprise environment.
1. Goal The primary purpose of this lab was to get familiar with RLES and establish a base infrastructure. This infrastructure includes a router/firewall and Linux server for network monitoring and documentation. Network monitoring is crucial in any infrastructure, no matter how small or how large.
The client (tier-one) would be a web browser on your computer, the application server (tier-two) is the web server that hosts the site or application, and data server is the tier-three system that is accessed by the tier-two server, not the tier-one client. Whereas, a two-tier system the client software is loaded on the client computer when opened the client software will retrieve and process the data from the data server. A fat client is loaded locally on a computer, where a thin client is
Understanding networking is a fundamental part of configuring complex environments on the internet. This has implications when trying to communicate between servers efficiently, developing secure network policies, and keeping your nodes organized. Every location or device on a network must be addressable. This is simply a term that means that it can be reached by referencing its designation under a predefined system of addresses. In the normal TCP/IP model of network layering, this is handled on a few different layers, but usually, when we refer to an address on a network, we are talking about an IP address.

They are intensive, exclusive and selective distribution. Intensive distribution aims to provide saturation coverage of the market using all available outlets. Selective distribution involves a producer using a limited number of outlets in a geographical area. Exclusive distribution is an extreme form of selective distribution in which only one wholesaler, distributor is used in a specific geographical area.
