Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)
Our SOA solutions help organizations migrate to an infrastructure composed of services that can be assembled,
orchestrated, and re-used. What’s unique about TIBCO's approach to SOA is that it’s platform agnostic. Service
virtualization abstracts the complexity of heterogeneous application platforms, and our bus-based architecture
extends the high performance and scalability equally across the distributed enterprise. Enterprise-scale SOA
comes together when you create services from new business logic and wrap existing legacy assets to expose them
as services. A challenge in many large enterprises, integrating legacy assets is a core competency of TIBCO.
TIBCO SOA Product Categories
Composite Applications: Provide a common service model to combine multiple existing functions or components
to assemble new applications.
SOA Governance: Enables administration and enforcement of runtime policies for services and provides
operational monitoring and management of services to ensure service levels are met through dynamic
provisioning and de-provisioning of additional services.
Business Integration: Builds a common framework for integrating incompatible and distributed systems to tie
together applications and web services.
Mainframe Integration: Exposes mainframe assets as reusable services that can be assembled into new composite
applications and integrated with the rest of the enterprise.
External Connectivity: Manages the secure execution of transactions outside of the firewall and over the internet.
Messaging: Manages the real-time flow of event-driven information across networks.
Master Data Management: Enforces and maintains policies to keep data accurate and consistent across multiple
transactional systems.
Composite Applications
• Building Composite Applications
• The challenge in building composite applications is accessing existing
functions across a heterogeneous environment and rapidly including them
in new applications – in a way that allows for change.
• TIBCO ActiveMatrix® reduces architectural complexity by providing a
standards-based grid architecture that serves as a technology-neutral
platform, with service containers for .NET, Ruby, C++, BPM, Web Servlets,
Spring, and Java. These containers provide a framework for the
development and deployment of new business logic. Visual tools enable
drag-and-drop assembly of technology components and service
assemblies.
• It simplifies management and improves operational control of these
composite applications by making service location, transport, and protocol
independent through the virtualized assembly and composition of services
all on one technology-neutral platform.

SOA Governance
The benefits of SOA adoption are compelling: lower development costs through rapid deployment
of new functionality that reuses existing code, increased flexibility from improved responsiveness
to business needs and reduced maintenance costs from freeing staff to work on innovative new
initiatives.
Yet, as the number of services grows within an organization committed to SOA, realizing those
benefits becomes difficult without putting in place policies and procedures. SOA governance
ensures the effective and efficient use of SOA in enabling an organization to achieve its goals with
policies, procedures, roles and responsibilities for both design-time and run-time governance:
Design-time/Lifecycle governance focuses on the entire lifecycle of an application, service or
artifact, including design, development, testing, deployment, maintenance, retirement.
Run-time/Operational governance ensures that once the services are deployed appropriate
security, auditing and logging policies are enforced and performance-based SLAs are met.
TIBCO's integrated SOA governance portfolio enables organizations to implement end-to-end
governance across the entire service lifecycle. With integrated registry, repository, policy and
service management infrastructure, TIBCO simplifies how developers publish, discover, reuse and
change service, which increases return on investment and delivers on the promise of SOA.
Business Integration
• Business Integration
• Enterprise integration software provides a common
framework for integrating and synchronizing incompatible
and distributed systems, making it faster and easier to tie
together applications and web services so you can integrate
them into business processes that span your organization.
• TIBCO's business integration software has been deployed
by over 1,000 companies worldwide and is the foundation
for several of the largest mission critical service-oriented
business applications in production today. It reduces costs
by enabling developers and administrators to build and
change applications with little or no coding.
Mainframe
• Mainframe Integration
• Mainframe systems are an integral part of most
enterprises. These systems hold valuable data and
processes that have evolved with the enterprise, and it is
crucial that these assets be active participants in corporate
technology infrastructures as part of an SOA strategy.
However, the introduction of open systems technologies
has resulted in incompatibilities making it difficult if not
impossible to achieve real-time integration of data and
processes across an enterprise.
• TIBCO Mainframe Service Suite™ addresses these problems
by exposing mainframe assets as reusable services that can
be assembled into new composite applications and easily
integrated with the rest of the enterprise.
• Multi-Enterprise Connectivity & Automated Business Interactions
• Automating business interactions between suppliers, customers, and
trading partners allows companies to better share information and
optimize processes across the value chain from better demand forecasting
to streamlined manufacturing to more responsive customer service.
• TIBCO's Multi-Enterprise Connectivity (MEC) software fundamentally
changes the way businesses communicate and interact with each other,
enabling organizations to manage the secure execution of transactions
over the internet using accepted industry standards; streamline interenterprise processes that go from your back-end systems to your partners'
systems; and manage a large and diverse community of trading partners
with minimal overhead.
• With TIBCO MEC, organizations can reduce costs, increase visibility, and
improve the overall level of security and compliance as it relates to the
exchange of business documents with trading partners.
Messaging
• Messaging
• High-performance messaging middleware powers missioncritical IT infrastructures. Whether it's accessing market
data, processing millions of transactions, or tracking
millions of shipments in real time, TIBCO's highperformance messaging solutions not only provide the
lowest end-to-end latency and highest throughput, but also
the reliability and enterprise-readiness required to operate
in the most demanding business environments.
• TIBCO pioneered the concept of an information bus when
its software digitized Wall Street. Since then, thousands of
customers worldwide rely on TIBCO's high-performance,
enterprise-strength messaging technology to power their
mission-critical business applications and IT infrastructures.

Master Data Management
Master data management (MDM) ensures that an organization's critical
information (customers, vendors, products, employees, locations) is accurate and
consistent across that organization's operational systems – spanning geographic,
line-of-business, and application silo boundaries – and the organization's
interactions with third parties. MDM enforces the necessary data governance
processes and policies for continuous data quality while controlling access. In
addition, MDM allows organizations to manage the many complex hierarchies
(product and customer classifications, categories, organizational structure) and
relationships within their data such as those between products, customers,
vendors, or locations.
Through effective MDM, organizations can eliminate errors, become efficient in
their business activities, and accelerate critical processes such as a single view of
the customer, new product launch, vendor on-boarding, first-time-right service
provisioning, cross-sell/up-sell, and customer service.
MDM builds a highly available, high quality data foundation that supports
enterprise IT initiatives such SOA, EDW, and BPM.
