4.2.2. Predefined User Profiles

Oracle Service Registry contains a list of predefined user profiles which differ in which main menu tabs will be available to them. Each user profile also contains a definition of default formats for result views. The registry administrator can adjust these user profiles. See Section 4, Business Service Control Configuration . The predefined user profiles are: • Business Expert - Understands problems that needs to be solved and relationships and implications to other systems within the enterprise. The Business Expert proposes reusable functional components future business services and how these solve particular problems. This user associates both functional and non-functional requirements with the components. The Business Expert also suggests reuse of existing services. • Functional requirements are usually provided as descriptions attached to proposed components. • Non-functional requirements are usually represented with high-level capabilities and constraints that are rendered as categories For example, secure, 24x7 uptime, transactional etc.. • Developer - Implements business services according to description and associated capabilitiesconstraints such as compliance. This user reuses low-level infrastructure services for the implementation. Business service implementation usually undergoes some QA and testing after development. • SOA Architect - Re-factors input from the Business Expert. This user performs the following: • Translates Business Expert deliverables into a set of reusable business services. • Transforms high-level capabilitiesconstraints into standards-based capabilitiesconstraints that can be enforced and implemented by other roles developers, administrators and operation managers. • Defines capabilitiesconstraints such as compliance constraints that enforce standards-compliance and common implementation and deployment service practices in the enterprise. • Enforces compliance to selected standards SOAP, WSDL, UDDI, WS-S, WS-RM etc.. • Suggests reuse of existing business services. • Operator - Deploys and manages business services implemented by the Developer into the production environment. This user also: • Publishes service endpoint and other runtime data about the deployed service. • Ensures that the business service is properly managed and secured by tagging the service with the appropriate category that triggers security and WSM registration processes. • SOA Administrator - This user performs the same functions as the Operator, but has higher priviledges: Page 173
