TIBCO GridServer® 7.1.0

# The Integration Process

Using the Service-Oriented integration approach involves six steps:

| 1. | Writing the Service, or adapting existing code. A Service can be virtually any type of implementation: a library (DLL or .so), a .NET assembly, a Java class, an R function, even an executable. No DataSynapse libraries need be linked, but the remotely callable methods of the Service might have to follow certain conventions. These conventions are described later.

| 2. | Deploying the Service. The implementation files and other resources required by a Service must be accessible from all Engines. This can be accomplished with a shared file system or GridServer’s file update mechanism.

| 3. | Registering the Service Type. To make the Service Type visible to clients, it must be registered, using the Administration Tool.

| 4. | Creating a Service Session. The client creates or gets access to a Service before using it — no discovery or binding is required. Each Service Session might have its own state. Because of virtualization, a single Service Session can correspond to more than one physical instance of the Service, such as more than one Engine running the Service’s code. Multiple asynchronous calls to a Service usually result in more than one Engine creating and accessing those Services.

| 5. | Making requests. The methods or functions of a Service can be called remotely either synchronously or asynchronously.

| 6. | Destroying the instance. Clients must destroy a Service Session when they are done with it, to free resources.
