Service A, Service B, and Service C are entity services, each designed to access the same shared legacy system. Service A manages order entities, Service B manages invoice entities, and Service C manages customer entities. Service A, Service B, and Service C are REST services and are frequently reused by different service compositions. The legacy system uses a proprietary file format that Services A, B, and C need to convert to and from.
You are told that compositions involving Service A, Service B, and Service C are unnecessarily complicated due to the fact that order, invoice, and customer entitles are all related to each other. For example, an order has a customer, an invoice has an order, and so on. This results In calls to multiple services to reconstruct a complete order document. You are asked to architect a solution that will simplify the composition logic by minimizing the number of services required to support simple business functions like order management or bill payment. Additionally, you are asked to reduce the amount of redundant data transformation logic that is found in Services A, B, and C.
How will you accomplish these goals?

• A.The Enterprise Service Bus pattern can be applied to introduce an intermediate processing layer between Services A, B, and C and the legacy system. The enterprise service bus can be used to consolidate and execute the necessary transformation logic currently held within the services. The Endpoint Redirection pattern can be applied to re-route calls from one service to another to provide access to related entity data.
• B.The Enterprise Service Bus pattern can be applied to introduce an intermediate processing layer between Services A, B, and C and the legacy system. The enterprise service bus can be used to consolidate and execute the transformation logic currently held within the services. The Content Negotiation pattern can be applied to return a content link to related entity data to a service consumer, which allows for simpler and more dynamic composition logic. The service consumer effectively invokes the relevant service through the returned link to obtain the related entity data.
• C.The Legacy Wrapper pattern can be applied to create a service to expose the legacy system through a standardized service contract. The core logic of the wrapping service would provide all necessary data transformation functionality to convert between inventory-standardized data representations and the proprietary format. The Lightweight Endpoint pattern can be applied to establish lightweight capabilities that can return related entity data directly to service consumers.
• D.The Legacy Wrapper pattern can be applied to create a service to expose the legacy system through a standardized service contract. The core logic of the wrapping service would provide all necessary data transformation functionality to convert between inventory-standardized data representations and the proprietary format. The Endpoint Redirection pattern can be applied to return a link to related entity data to a service consumer, which allows for simpler and more dynamic composition logic. The service consumer effectively invokes the relevant service through the returned link to obtain the related entity data.

Refer to Exhibit.

Service A is a task service that sends Service B a message (2) requesting that Service B return data back to Service A in a response message (3). Depending on the response received, Service A may be required to send a message to Service C (4) for which it requires no response.
Before it contacts Service B, Service A must first retrieve a list of code values from its own database (1) and then place this data into its own memory. If it turns out that it must send a message to Service C, then Service A must combine the data it receives from Service B with the data from the code value list in order to create the message it sends to Service C. If Service A is not required to invoke Service C, it can complete its task by discarding the code values.
Service A and Service C reside in Service Inventory A. Service B resides in Service Inventory B.
You are told that the services in Service Inventory A were designed with service contracts that are based on different design standards and technologies than the services In Service Inventory B. As a result, Service A is a SOAP-based Web service and Service B Is a REST service that exchanges JSON-formatted messages. Therefore, Service A and Service B cannot currently communicate. Furthermore, Service C is an agnostic service that is heavily accessed by many concurrent service consumers. Service C frequently reaches its usage thresholds, during which it is not available and messages sent to it are not received.
What steps can be taken to solve these problems?

• A.The Data Format Transformation pattern can be applied by establishing an intermediate processing layer between Service A and Service B that can transform a message from one data format to another at runtime. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to establish an intermediate queue between Service A and Service C so that when Service A needs to send a message to Service C, the queue will store the message and retransmit it to Service C until it is successfully delivered. The Service Autonomy principle can be further applied to Service C together with the Redundant Implementation pattern to help establish a more reliable and scalable service architecture.
• B.The Data Model Transformation pattern can be applied by establishing an intermediate processing layer between Service A and Service B that can transform a message from one data model to another at runtime. The Intermediate Routing and Service Agent patterns can be applied so that when Service B sends a response message, a service agent can intercept the message and, based on its contents, either forward the message to Service A or route the message to Service C. The Service Statelessness principle can be applied with the help of the State Repository pattern so that Service A can write the code value data to a state database while it is waiting for Service B to respond.
• C.The Data Format Transformation pattern can be applied by establishing an intermediate processing layer between Service A and Service B that can transform a message from one data format to another at runtime. The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied to establish an intermediate queue between Service A and Service B so that when Service A needs to send a message to Service B, the queue will store the message and retransmit it to Service B until it is successfully delivered. The Service Reusability principle can be further applied to Service C together with the Redundant Implementation pattern to help establish a more reusable and scalable service architecture.
• D.The Data Model Transformation pattern can be applied by establishing an intermediate processing layer between Service A and Service B that can transform a message from one data model to another at runtime. The Intermediate Routing and Service Agent patterns can be applied so that when Service B sends a response message, a service agent can intercept the message and, based on its contents, either forward the message to Service A or route the message to Service C. The Service Autonomy principle can be further applied to Service C together with the Redundant Implementation pattern to help establish a more reliable and scalable service architecture.

Refer to Exhibit.

Service Consumer A sends a message to Service A (1), which then forwards the message to Service B (2). Service B forwards the message to Service C (3), which finally forwards the message to Service D (4). However, Services A, B and C each contain logic that reads the contents of the message to determine what intermediate processing to perform and which service to forward the message to. As a result, what is shown in the diagram is only one of several possible runtime scenarios.
Currently, this service composition architecture is performing adequately, despite the number of services that can be involved in the transmission of one message. However, you are told that new logic is being added to Service A that will require it to compose one other service to retrieve new data at runtime that Service A will need access to in order to determine where to forward the message to. The involvement of the additional service will make the service composition too large and slow.
What steps can be taken to improve the service composition architecture while still accommodating the new requirements and avoiding an increase in the amount of service composition members?

• A.The Service Instance Routing pattern can be applied to introduce a Routing service to provide a centralized service to contain routing-related business rules. This new Routing service can be accessed by Service A and Service C so they can determine where to forward messages to at runtime. The Service Reusability principle can be further applied to ensure that the logic in all remaining services is designed to be multi-purpose and reusable.
• B.The Asynchronous Queuing pattern can be applied together with a Routing service that is invoked by messages read from a messaging queue. This new Routing service can replace Service B and can be accessed by Service A and Service C so they can determine where to forward messages to at runtime. The Service Loose Coupling principle can be further applied to ensure that the new Routing service remains decoupled from other services so that it can perform its routing functions independently from service contract invocation.
• C.The Intermediate Routing pattern can be applied together with the Service Agent pattern by removing Service B or Service C from the service composition and replacing it with a service agent capable of intercepting and forwarding the message at runtime based on pre-defined routing logic. The Service Discoverability principle can be further applied to ensure that Service A can be found by any future service consumers.
• D.The Intermediate Routing pattern can be applied together with the Service Agent pattern to establish a service agent capable of intercepting and forwarding the message at runtime based on pre-defined routing logic. The Service Composability principle can be further applied to ensure that all services are designed as effective service composition participants.
