A new edition of Hewlett-Packard's SOA Systinet is driving toward automated governance for SOA, and it can serve as a hub for governance activities in the SOA development life cycle, the company says.

Yesterday, HP SOA Systinet 3.00 became generally available. Systinet now provides governance for business processes and automation for scaling services, in addition to deeper integration with QA life-cycle management products.

Systinet allows business process analysts to create reusable businesses processes and to include them in the governance framework using Business Process Execution Language.

Policies help the author negotiate the candidate stage of a service, assigning the right service owner by interacting with integrated development environments and source code management systems, explained Tim Hall, director of HP’s SOA products.

Using Systinet, business analysts work in their own environment. HP has created new integration modules for Eclipse and Microsoft Visual Studio to download artifacts from Systinet. HP has also added support for Open CSA (Service Component Architecture) and Web Services Description Language Version 2.0, a language for describing Web services.

Integration with HP Quality Center’s service test APIs offers QA professionals visibility into a particular business process, and it ensures that the product owner cannot release something with a critical defect to market, he added. A service that violates policies is not promoted to staging or production.

Bulk operations and life-cycle cloning operations will help organizations automate to scalability, the company says. Hall noted that those operations include changing service ownership, and that HP has created an interface to help users build lists and apply changes.

“The most important new features of Systinet 3.0 include better integration with and governance of business processes, as well as improved scalability," commented Jason Bloomberg, a senior analyst and principal at ZapThink. "These capabilities put Systinet neck and neck with its two main competitors, Software AG CentraSite and IBM WebSphere Registry and Repository."

New integrations with HP Service Test Management and HP Universal Configuration Management Database, as well as pre-built life-cycle policies and templates, are designed to help customers integrate with existing processes and to automate policy compliance.
