Apache Tuscany SCA 1.1 Release Announced

Tuscany team has just announced Java SCA 1.1 and it is now available for download on the Tuscany SCA Releases page.

The Apache Tuscany team are delighted to announce the 1.1 release of the Java SCA project.

Apache Tuscany provides a runtime environment based on the Service Component Architecture (SCA). SCA is a set of specifications aimed at simplifying SOA application development. These specifications are being standardized by OASIS as part of the Open Composite Services Architecture (Open CSA).

The Tuscany SCA Java 1.1 release adds a number of features including a JMS binding, improved policy support and an implementation extension for representing client side Javascript applications as SCA components.

There is also a nice post at InfoQ

InfoQ spoke with Jean-Sebastien Delfino and Luciano Resende, both from IBM, who contribute to the Apache Tuscany project.

InfoQ: What's coming ahead ?

JS: The Tuscany community will have to decide (as we're just getting 1.1 out) but I envision progress in the following areas:

* simpler and more complete SCA policy support
* more policies (making progress with the transaction policy)
* improved end-to-end SCA contribution / deployment / distribution story
* an SCA domain administration application
* integration with Geronimo (there's a prototype in the Geronimo sandbox)
* improvements of the Web 2.0 bindings (maybe using Apache Abdera for ATOM and adding cross-domain support to the JSONRPC binding)
* optimizations of the Tuscany databinding support
* more platform integration testing (Tomcat, Geronimo etc.)
