Article ideas

[mdutoo]

Here is a list of ideas of articles that we could write, alone or together in collaboration.

They are mainly about best practices or principles with concrete examples, but could be adapted to showcasing how EasySOA helps along such best practice once / as long as EasySOA provides the corresponding feature. Note that beyond best practices, any technical article would also be OK (but none is listed here yet).

Where they could be published : EasySOA blog, InfoQ, developpez.net, as guest on other blogs, on community blogs (Eclipse)...

• Nuxeo for .NET, a SOAP interoperability use case (or not ?) - featuring user centrism & separation of concerns, security and the no-as-old EAI conncept of connectors
• Make templates out of existing HTTP exchanges, or "the best client is the actual business application" - by inferring knowledge about them
• when REST makes sense for SOA, and when it does not - agile APIs vs collaboration between development teams
• service beyond definition, or a life after WSDL - thinking differently about what service definition enables : on both client & server sides, code generation, validation, service stack configuration for "non functional" features, dev doc - in addition to loose coupling through content-oriented remoting
• hurt-free sandboxed prototyping on top of your staging SOA - the fuse proxy, a simple service negociation use case
• more topics : service (and application) versioning, Sanitize services external to your SOA through change detection, listen to your SOA to keep it in check, BPM : a perfect candidate for REST
• existing blog & pattern articles : ECM for SOA, audit an SOA, properties file-based routing

Seems like a good idea indeed. I first need to have a clearer idea about SOAP and WSDL so I'll write my questions in a wiki page and then when we have answers we can write an article ... deal ?

NB : I'll try to do it tonight ...

deal, I won't go further in the following 2 weeks though

I just added a page in the wiki about SOAP and Nuxeo ... feel free to give me you feedback

Wrote some feedback there.
