Apache News Online : Apache ODE http://www.apachenews.org/archives/cat_apache_ode.html en-us tetsuya@apache.org 2008-07-11T01:30:07+00:00 hourly 1 2000-01-01T12:00+00:00 11 July 2008 - Apache ODE 1.2 Released http://www.apachenews.org/archives/001171.html The Apache ODE community is proud to announce its latest 1.2 release that includes many new features, improvements and bug fixes. Apache ODE is a WS-BPEL compliant web services orchestration engine. It organizes web services calls following a process description written in the BPEL XML grammar. Another way to describe it would be a web-service capable workflow engine. Highlights of this release: * External variables: variables used in a process are not opaque to the outside world anymore. You can map them to a simple database table and manipulate them directly. * Support for the WSDL HTTP binding. We've also added a few extensions, allowing the invocation of REST-style web services. * Advanced endpoint configuration which, thanks to the integration with Apache Axis2, enables WS-Security and WS-RM support. * A long list of small fixes and improvements for best-of-breed stability, performance and usability. In addition to these new features, Apache ODE provides the following functionalities: * Side-by-side support for both the WS-BPEL 2.0 OASIS standard and the legacy BPEL4WS 1.1 vendor specification. * Supports 2 communication layers: one based on Axis2 (Web Services http transport) and another one based on the JBI standard (using ServiceMix). * High level API to the engine that allows you to integrate the core with virtually any communication layer. * Hot-deployment of your processes. * Compiled approach to BPEL that provides detailed analysis and validation at the command line or at deployment. * Management interface for processes, instances and messages.
