Orchestration
 Private process
 Steps of an executable
workflow
 Process controlled by
one party
Business
Process
Choreography
 Public (abstract) process
 Sequence of observable

Business Process Execution
Language for Web Services
• Version 1.0 released by IBM, Microsoft and BEA in
August 2002
•
Accompanied by WS-Coordination, WS-Transaction which
remain unsubmitted to standards bodies
• Version 1.1 submitted to OASIS April 2003
• XML language for describing business processes
based on Web services
•
Convergence of XLANG (Microsoft) and WSFL (IBM)
• Amazing industry “consensus” in the last 6 months
•
IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, Sun, BEA, SAP, Siebel …
Value Proposition
 Portable business processes
–
Built on top of an interoperable infrastructure of
Web services
 Industry wide language for business processes
–
Common skill set and language for developers
 Choice of process engines
–
Standards lead to competitive offerings

BPEL Activities
Primitive Activities
 <invoke>
 <receive>
 <assign>
 <reply>
 <throw>
 <terminate>
 <wait>
Structured Activities
 <sequence>
 <switch>
 <pick>
 <flow>
 <link>
 <while>
 <scope>
Partners
 Declare the Web services and roles used by the
process
 Tied to WSDL of the process itself and the
participating Web services by service link types

Partners in BPEL
BPEL:
<partners>
<partner name=“customer" serviceLinkType=“lns:purchaseSLT”
myRole=“purchaseService”/>
<partner name=“inventoryChecker” serviceLinkType=“lns:inventorySLT”
myRole=“inventoryRequestor” partnerRole=“inventoryService”/>
<partner name=“creditChecker” serviceLinkType=“lns:creditSLT”
myRole=“creditRequestor” partnerRole=“creditService”/>
</partners>
Purchase Process WSDL:
Purchase Process PortType:
<slt:serviceLinkType name=“purchaseSLT”>
<slt:role name=“purchaseService”>
<slt:portType name=“tns:purchasePT”/>
</slt:role>
</slt:serviceLinkType>
<portType name=“purchasePT”>
<operation name="sendPurchase">
</operation>
</portType>
Variables
 Messages sent and received from partners
–
–
Persisted for long running interactions
Defined in WSDL types and messages

Variables in BPEL
BPEL:
<variables>
<variable name=“PO” messageType=“lns:POMessage”/>
<variable name=“Invoice” messageType=“lns:InvMessage”/>
<variable name=“POFault” messageType=“lns:orderFaultType”/>
</variables>
Purchase Process WSDL:
<message name=“POMessage”>
<part name=“customerInfo” type=“sns:customerInfo”/>
<part name=“purchaseOrder” type=“sns:purchaseOrder”/>
</message>
<message name="InvMessage">
<part name=“IVC” type=“sns:Invoice”/>
</message>
<message name=“orderFaultType”>
<part name=“problemInfo” type=“xsd:string”/>
</message>
How is Data Manipulation
Done?
 Using <assign> and <copy>, data can be
copied and manipulated between variables
 <copy> supports XPath queries to sub-select
data
<assign>
<copy>
<from variable="PO" part="customerInfo"/>
<to variable=“creditRequest” part="customerInfo"/>
</copy>
</assign>
Simple Activities
 Receive
–
–
Wait for a partner inbound message
Can be the instantiator of the business process
 Reply
–
–
Synchronous response to a receive activity
Response to the inbound receive from a partner
 Invoke
–
Issue a request synchronously *or* asynchronously
 Pick
–
–
–
Specify an inbound set of messages
Can be the instantiator of the business process
Activity completes when one of the messages arrives
Simple Activities Combined
with Structured Activities
Receive <PO>
Invoke <InventoryService>
Invoke <CreditService>
Reply <Invoice>
<sequence>
<flow>
</sequence>
Sample Activities in BPEL
<sequence>
<receive partner=“customer” portType=“lns:purchaseOrderPT"
operation=“sendPurchaseOrder” variable=“PO”
createInstance="yes" />
<flow>
<invoke partner=“inventoryChecker” portType=“lns:inventoryPT”
operation="checkINV" inputVariable="inventoryRequest"
outputVariable="inventoryResponse" />
<invoke partner="creditChecker" portType=“lns:creditPT"
operation="checkCRED" inputVariable="creditRequest"
outputVariable="creditResponse" />
</flow>
...
<reply partner=“customer” portType=“lns:purchaseOrderPT”
operation=“sendPurchaseOrder” variable=“invoice"/>
</sequence>
Links – Control Flow
<flow>
<links>
<link name="XtoY"/>
<link name="CtoD"/>
</links>
<sequence name="X">
<source linkName="XtoY"/>
<invoke name="A" .../>
<invoke name="B" .../>
</sequence>
<sequence name"Y">
<target linkName="XtoY"/>
<receive name="C"/>
<source linkName="CtoD"/>
</receive>
<invoke name="E" .../>
</sequence>
<invoke partner="D">

<Inv_VendId = 20>
<Inv_InvId = 200> initiate=yes pattern=out
initiate=no pattern=out
Correlations in BPEL
<correlationSets>
<correlationSet name="POCorr" properties="cor:custId cor:ordId"/>
<correlationSet name="InvoiceCorr" properties="cor:vendId cor:invId"/>
</correlationSets> ...
<receive partner=“Customer” portType="SP:PurchaseOrderPT"

<correlation set="POCorr" initiate="no" pattern="out">

Scopes in BPEL
<scope
 Provide a shared
context for subset of
activities
 Can contain
–
–
–
–
fault handlers
event handlers,
compensation handler
variables
correlation sets
 Can serialize concurrent
access to variables
variableAccessSerializable="yes|no“

<compensationHandler>? ...

<scope>
Charge
Hold Fee
Undo
CreditService
• CheckCredit
• ChargeHoldFee
• CancelHoldFee
InventoryService
Reserve
Inventory Undo
</scope>
• ReserveInventory
• CancelReserveInv
Compensation Handlers
in BPEL
<scope>
<compensationHandler>
<invoke partner="Seller" portType="SP:Purchasing"
operation="CancelPurchase"
inputVariable="getResponse"
outputVariable="getConfirmation">
<correlations>
<correlation set="PurchaseOrder" pattern="out"/>
</correlations>
</invoke>
</compensationHandler>
<invoke partner="Seller" portType="SP:Purchasing"
operation="SyncPurchase"
inputVariable="sendPO"
outputVariable="getResponse">
<correlations>
<correlation set="PurchaseOrder" initiate=“yes” pattern="out"/>
</correlations>
</invoke>
</scope>
Exception Handling in BPEL
 <faultHandlers> catch exception
Based on WSDL port defining fault
 <faultHandlers> can perform activities upon
invocation
–
<faultHandlers>
<catch faultName="lns:cannotCompleteOrder"
faultVariable="POFault">
<reply partner="customer"
portType="lns:purchaseOrderPT"
operation="sendPurchaseOrder"
variable="POFault"
faultName="cannotCompleteOrder"/>
</catch>
</faultHandlers>

Oracle’s Strategy
 Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE
– BPEL runtime
 Oracle JDeveloper
– BPEL design time
 Oracle Application Server Integration
– Web service, B2B and EAI integration
Remember BPEL Does
Not Solve “World Hunger”





No data transformation
No data translation (EDI, binary formats …)
No human workflow
No trading partner agreements
Silent on existing business protocols (ebXML,
RosettaNet …)
 Silent on non Web service interactions (e.g. java to
java)
 ...
But Remember: People Are
Trying to Solve “World Hunger”

Parting Thoughts
 Business process portability?
–
–
Java/J2EE is portable across application servers
BPEL is portable independent of Java
 Programming language in XML?
–
–
Does this hurt?
Vendors, big and small, are busy building
modellers…
 Is BPEL in 2003/2004 J2EE in 1998?
–
Much missing but compelling foundation
Next Steps….
