Implementing a ESB cluster based on WSO2 solutions

BlueSoft designed and implemented a service separation solution in HA architecture for WSO2 ESB.

Challenge

Along with the development of the platform and the resulting need to decrease the growing data access time, Budimex decided to expand the platform with an additional node based on WSO2 solutions.
When conducting technical updates of the environment in order to ensure high availability and scalability of the platform, it was necessary to maintain business continuity in the whole organization.

Another challenge was the need to coordinate works in the geographically dispersed environment with limited possibilities of testing the stability of the whole solution.

Takeaways

Key 1

High availability of the integration platform thanks to HA infrastructure

Key 2

Increasing scalability and security of services by launching an additional node in a different country

Key 3

Reduced time of business operations performance

Solution

The integration platform expanded by BlueSoft was built in HA infrastructure based on clusters with implementation and configuration of services on WSO2 ESB/DSS.

Apart from the node existing already in Poland, another one was launched in Spain, and the traffic was divided by using load-balancers which also work in separate dedicated clusters, in accordance with the spirit of HA.

System Integration

Result

The proposed solution significantly reduced the time of access to data and introduced mechanisms which will provide scalability upon further expansion. The highest possible availability of the environment in the event of failure of any of the nodes was also ensured.

30+ services on the platform
90+% time reduction of access to data

Data migration & data remediation for corporate acquisition in Life Science industry

BlueSoft engineers took up the challenge of global data migration for two international companies recognizable in the Life Science sector. The project was complex because these two companies processed and stored their data differently, using different tools and approaches to customers, sales models, services, and regionalization. Those challenges called for a modern and sophisticated set of reliable tools capable of providing secure and efficient data processing, delivering wide range of external system connectors, allowing secure and reliable data manipulation and cleansing with high level of scalability. This is why Talend suite supported by AWS RDS services has been chosen as the core ETL tool set for this challenge.

Integration platform for Spirax Sarco

Spirax Sarco Engineering is a significant and successful leading force within the Manufacturing industry. Its continuing success can, in part, be put down to its global reach; quoting, for its Steam Engineering Business, 74 Operating Companies across 62 Countries around the world. Whilst this strategic approach can underpin the capability to operate a strong and winning formula in the market, it can come at a cost to the day to day operational management and maintenance of the systems that support that framework.
