Google Summer of Code 2013 Project Ideas

If you are a Software Engineer/Computer Science student, you must have heard about Google Summer of Code. If you are searching for project ideas for GSoC 2013, please see the current Apache Tuscany project ideas:

TUSCANY-4077 Enhance Tuscany Widget support

The Tuscany Widget Implementation extends the SCA programing model to HTML and/or Web 2.0 client applications. This project consists on enhancing the current implementation of to support different javascript libraries (e.g. JQuery), enable support for cross-domain services invocations using CORS when applicable, support gzip compression, etc

TUSCANY-4076 Develop a distributed domain registry using Apache ZooKeeper

Apache Tuscany currently have support for a distributed SCA domain registry using couple distributed cache technologies and this project is about adding support to a distributed SCA domain registry using Apache Zookeeper. An stretch goal would be to provide a "persistence abstraction" that would enable plugin in different distributed data services such as Apache ZooKeeper, Redis, or Memcache.

Apache Tuscany SCA Java 1.6.2 released

The Apache Tuscany team is pleased to announce the 1.6.2 release of the Java SCA project.

Apache Tuscany/SCA provides a runtime environment based on 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 1.6.2 release includes some bug fixes to the previous 1.6.1 release, as described in the RELEASE_NOTES and CHANGES files. To download the distributions, please go to:

Apache Tuscany SCA Java 2.0-Beta2 released

The Apache Tuscany team is pleased to announce the 2.0-Beta2 release of the Java SCA 2.0 project.

Apache Tuscany/SCA provides a runtime environment based on Service Component Architecture (SCA), which is a set of OASIS specifications aimed at simplifying SOA application development.

This is the second beta release on our way to a full 2.0 release. It contains improvements on a number of modules, dependency upgrades and continues the effort of module reorganization started with the Beta1 release. New features include an interactive shell to work with SCA domains, contributions and services.

Tuscany SCA in Action is now printed

Tuscany SCA is a technology-neutral infrastructure for building composite applications based on the Service Component Architecture standard. It manages the protocols and other application plumbing, enabling you to focus on business logic and the relationship between services. The resulting applications are more flexible, scalable, and maintainable.

Tuscany SCA in Action is a comprehensive, hands-on guide for developing technology-agnostic, extensible applications. By following a travel-booking example throughout the book, you'll learn how to model, compose, deploy, and manage applications using SCA. The book emphasizes practical concerns, like effectively using Tuscany’s supported bindings and protocols and integrating with standard technologies like Spring and JMS to save development time and cost.

WHAT'S INSIDE

• Introduction to Tuscany
• Coverage of Service Component Architecture
• Practical examples and techniques
• Written by core Tuscany committers

This book is for developers interested in service-oriented applications. No experience with Tuscany or SCA is required.

About the Authors

Simon Laws is a member of the IBM Open Source SOA project focused on building the Java runtime for Service Component Architecture (SCA). Coauthors Mark Combellack, Raymond Feng, Haleh Mahbod, and Simon Nash are all Tuscany committers.
