White paper discusses how to strengthen API design, evolution and connection by applying RESTful tooling in conjunction with REST constraints and principles
Palo Alto, CA – April 28, 2014 – Today, enterprises are taking advantage of RESTful design to increase API performance, reduce their development efforts, and minimize their operational support burden. However, many API implementations are not truly based on REST constraints and principles. As a result, they lack the expected scalability and interoperability, as well as the ability to evolve. To help address this challenge, WSO2 has published a new white paper that discusses best practices and effective RESTful tooling for designing, evolving and connecting APIs.
Optimizing RESTful Design and Development
The white paper, “REST Easy: API Design, Evolution, and Connection,” was written by WSO2 Vice President of Platform Evangelism Chris Haddad. It begins by defining REST, discussing how RESTful Web services and RESTful APIs have become the standard for consumer and Web-scale enterprise applications. The paper then explores REST constraints that can be applied to create scalable, pervasive and prolific systems. Additionally, it explains how RESTful APIs must conform to REST constraints, resources and representations.
The paper also reviews three significant REST principles: create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) design operations; application behavior modeled as state machines; and hypermedia design. Additionally, it covers how to create easy connections, design APIs that conform to uniform interface and Hypertext As The Engine Of Application State (HATEOAS) conventions, and evolve APIs through versioning, eventing and hypermedia maturity. Finally, the paper examines how organizations can implement RESTful tooling, including Java JAX-RS and API management infrastructure best practices.
The white paper can be downloaded at http://wso2.com/whitepapers/rest-easy-api-design-evolution-and-connection.

The new release includes expanded list of supported localizations, simplified dialog forms, integrated style designer, encryption algorithm AES 256bit for PDF-files.
Reporting tools from Stimulsoft are used for processing data, displaying them and printing. Software products are available for several technologies such as WinForms, ASP.NET, ASP.NET MVC, HTML5 and WinRT.
"Each customer is very important to us, - says Ivan Shmatov, head of the technical support department - wherever he lives and whatever language he speaks. Indeed, look at the list of languages that our products support. It is more than thirty! With the version 2014.1, the entire product line Stimulsoft Reports supports Catalan, Euskera, Galician, as well as British English. At the same time, we have integrated two new functions - DateToStrPt and DateToStrPtBr. They are used to display dates in words in Portuguese and Brazilian Portuguese, taking into account national peculiarities of their writing."
Another step towards simplification and understanding the software is enhancement of dialog forms of exporting reports in Mobile Viewer. Dialogs are now intuitive and comprehensive. Some of them were grouped together. This feature applies to forms of exports in Excel, Word, HTML, data files.
Stimulsoft Reports 2014.1 allows to quickly and easily create a report form with a user´s request: work with report styles in the Mobile Designer component for MVC (HTML5) has been simplified; the style designer allows creating, editing, and adding new report styles. Moreover, it became possible to create collections of styles.
Any information should be protected. Users of Stimulsoft Reports must be sure that they can trust Stimulsoft in the security issues. The new version of reporting tools can encrypt reports by the algorithm AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) 256bit for PDF files created in Stimulsoft Reports. The PDF format has a built-in encryption. This means that it is possible to put a password in a document, without which it is impossible to perform certain actions with the document such as opening, printing, editing. Encryption can be done by different methods depending on the algorithm and key length.
Initially, the Acrobat products used RC4 40 and 128-bit encryption methods. Eventually more robust encryption algorithm AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) appeared. At this moment it is the best built-in Acrobat encryption method.

DiscountASP.NET, a leader in Windows hosting, announces the launch of Everleap, a cloud hosting platform for websites built on top of Microsoft Windows Azure Pack, the same technology used by Microsoft Azure. Everleap is a fault tolerant, elastic, fully-managed cloud hosting platform that bridges the existing gap between traditional web hosting and the big cloud service providers.
“With Everleap we wanted to combine the power of the cloud with the familiarity of traditional web hosting. It’s truly a next-generation hosting platform that is unlike anything else available today,” said Takeshi Eto, VP Marketing and Business Development. “A lot of people are staying away from the big cloud providers due to the unpredictable pricing; the by-the-minute metering of services and the charging of additional fees for many things essential to running a site. So one of our goals with Everleap was to give people access to a true cloud platform but with simple, predictable pricing. Every one of our plans includes essential services like SQL, MySQL, SSL, email, DNS and tech support, at no additional cost.”
Unlike traditional hosting where websites are served from a single physical server, Everleap utilizes independent file servers, load balancers and large clusters of web servers. If a web server goes down or needs maintenance, traffic is rerouted and the site is served from another available web server. The infrastructure eliminates all of the common causes of downtime in traditional web hosting.
“This isn't simply a 'skin' on top of Windows Azure Pack," said Frank Cheung, CTO at DiscountASP.NET, "We have been working with the technology for a considerable amount of time now, and we've created a unique offering with Everleap. We built our own unique Control Panel, which allows us to add new services and technology very quickly. What we've got here is not only a more reliable hosting platform, but an environment that allows us to do things that just aren't possible in traditional shared hosting. For example, every site on Everleap can be served from two or more load-balanced web servers simultaneously, providing a boost in performance when a site sees increased activity. In addition to instantly adding or removing web servers, users can also seamlessly scale up to dedicated cloud servers without redeploying their applications.”
Frank Cheung will be participating in a Google Hangout On Air scheduled for Thursday, April 24, 2014 at 2 p.m. Pacific Time. The Hangout will include discussion on how the Everleap cloud system works, demos, and live Q&A. Details are available at: http://google.com/+EverleapHosting
“The Everleap cloud supports the latest Microsoft web stack so it’s a natural playground for ASP.NET developers, but it also supports PHP, so it provides PHP developers with a cloud hosting platform that is generally unavailable, even with LAMP hosts,” added Takeshi Eto, “and the Everleap cloud is fully managed, so there are none of the maintenance headaches that you inevitably run in to with traditional VPS, dedicated or VM hosting solutions.”
About Everleap
Everleap is a cloud website hosting solution built by the team at DiscountASP.NET utilizing Microsoft Windows Azure Pack. Everleap brings together the reliability and scalability of big cloud providers with the predictable pricing, bundled services, technical support, and ease and familiarity of traditional website hosting. For more information, visit http://Everleap.com.

About WSO2 Enterprise Mobility Manager
WSO2 Enterprise Mobility Manager (http://wso2.com/products/enterprise-mobility-manager/) is a comprehensive product designed specifically for managing an enterprise’s corporate and employee-owned devices, as well as the mobile apps running on them. These include any devices and applications using the Android and Apple iOS operating systems.
WSO2 EMM features two key components. Mobile Device Management (MDM) is used to secure, manage and monitor Android and Apple iOS-powered devices. Mobile Application Management (MAM) is used to publish and provision mobile applications. Central to MAM is an intuitive enterprise mobile app store for Android and Apple iOS applications, which facilitates encourages employee adoption and compliance.
As the industry’s only 100% open source mobile management solution, WSO2 EMM provides a flexible and cost-effective alternative to proprietary products. Additionally, WSO2 EMM is built on the same modular, fully componentized OSGi-compliant code base as the award-winning WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware platform, so it is pre-integrated with other WSO2 products. For example, integration with WSO2 Identity Server provides robust authentication and authorization. Similarly, extensive monitoring of mobile apps, devices and users is enabled by integration with WSO2’s big data analytics framework, including WSO2 Complex Event Processor (WSO2 CEP) for real-time analysis and WSO2 Business Activity Monitor (BAM) batch analysis.
Like all WSO2 software, WSO2 EMM is multi-tenant and cloud-ready, so the same software can be deployed directly on servers or in the cloud

WSO2 Vice President of Developer Evangelism will examine the Apache Stratos (incubating) PaaS framework; WSO2 Software Architect will explore essential enterprise PaaS elements
Palo Alto, CA – April 2, 2014 – Empowering existing software with multi-tenancy and other cloud capabilities is critical for expanding cloud adoption across the enterprise. Two WSO2 technology executives will address this challenge in their presentations examining the architectural features and best practices for taking advantage of the Apache Stratos (http://stratos.incubator.apache.org/) (incubating) platform as a service (PaaS) framework at ApacheCon North America 2014.
WSO2 is a Diamond Sponsor of ApacheCon North America, which will run April 7-9, 2014 at the Westin Denver Downtown in Denver, Colorado.
Keynote: Introducing Apache Stratos (Incubating)
Samisa Abeysinghe, WSO2 vice president of developer evangelism, will present the keynote, “Apache Stratos - PaaS Project from the Apache Community,” which will run from 9:45-9:55 a.m. on Monday April 7, 2014 in the Confluence Ballroom.
In the keynote, Samisa will examine the architecture and key features of the Apache Stratos (incubating) PaaS framework. He also will discuss how the polyglot PaaS framework provides developers with a cloud-based environment for developing, testing, and running scalable applications. Additionally, he will explore how the PaaS delivers high utilization rates, automated resource management, and platform-wide insight including monitoring and billing.
Samisa has nearly 15 years of experience working for systems integrators and software vendors with global exposure. Previously, he led the development of WSO2’s cloud and middleware platforms as vice president of engineering. Prior to WSO2, Samisa worked for systems integrators and software vendors with global exposure. He is a longtime Apache Web Services project committer, and initiated the Apache Axis2/C project. In addition to several published articles, Samisa has authored two books: “RESTful PHP Web Services” and “PHP Team Development.”
Presentation: Essential Elements of an Enterprise PaaS
Lakmal Warusawithana, WSO2 software architect, will present the session, “Essential Elements of an Enterprise PaaS,” which is part of the “Cloudy Track” that will run from 10:00-10:50 a.m. on Wednesday April 9, 2014 in the Curtis room.
In the session, Lakmal will begin by reviewing the essential elements of an effective enterprise PaaS, including faster delivery, intelligent capacity on demand, efficiency, security, and high performance. Lakmal then will discuss how the Apache Stratos (incubating) PaaS framework delivers on each of these requirements.
Lakmal focuses on the development of Apache Stratos (incubating) and WSO2 Private PaaS (formerly WSO2 Stratos). He has over 11 years of industry experience. In 2005, Lakmal co-founded the thinkCube, pioneering the next generation of collaborative cloud computing products tailored toward telecom operators. He oversaw the overall engineering process and focused special attention to scalability and service delivery of thinkCube solutions. Prior to co-founding thinkCube, Lakmal specialized in Linux-based server deployments that came with a custom server management interface at ITABS.
Comprehensive Approaches to Enterprise PaaS
The WSO2 booth at ApacheCon North America will have experts in cloud computing available to demonstrate comprehensive WSO2 PaaS offerings that build on the Apache Stratos (incubating) project.
WSO2 Private PaaS (http://wso2.com/cloud/private-paas/) (formerly WSO2 Stratos) provides the industry’s most complete, open enterprise-grade platform as a service. It features a cartridge-based architecture that combines support for heterogeneous applications and service-oriented architecture (SOA) platform runtimes with native, secure multi-tenancy.
WSO2 Private PaaS includes the WSO2 PaaS Foundation, which is an instance of the Apache Stratos (incubating) PaaS framework; all pre-integrated, cloud-ready, and fully multi-tenant WSO2 Carbon middleware products; and cartridges for MySQL, PHP and Apache TomCat. Through the use of jclouds, WSO2 Stratos 2.0 offers the ability to run on almost any infrastructure as a service (IaaS) cloud, including SUSE Cloud and other OpenStack-based offerings, VMware, Eucalyptus, and Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2).
WSO2 App Factory (http://wso2.com/cloud/app-factory/) is the enterprise DevOps PaaS that is built on—and integrates with—the award-winning 100% open source WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware platform and WSO2 Private PaaS. A shared, self-service, multi-tenant and elastic platform, WSO2 App Factory empowers teams to collaboratively create, develop and deploy enterprise applications into cloud environments—without the delay of server provisioning.
Robust governance and life cycle management in WSO2 App Factory, including the ability to integrate with any software development life cycle (SDLC) tools, ensure compliance with IT, corporate and government policies. At the same time, the ability to create an intuitive Apple or Google Marketplace-like storefront means developers can easily subscribe to and consume APIs, applications and gadgets.

White paper discusses how IT professionals can meet business goals, define an appropriate SOA and API mindset, implement shared services and APIs, and optimize governance
Palo Alto, CA – March 27, 2014 – Enterprises recognize that API and service-oriented architecture (SOA) best practices are central to solution and platform development. However, the adoption curve for these approaches can be steep. To help IT professionals address this challenge, WSO2 has published a new white paper that discusses effective strategies and tactics for API management within an SOA.
Capitalizing on SOA and API Convergence
The white paper, “SOA and API Convergence Strategy and Tactics,” was written by WSO2 Vice President of Platform Evangelism Chris Haddad. It begins by examining common SOA and API goals and benefits, reviewing both the business and technical perspectives. The paper then explores the execution schism, caused by differences in strategic focus, between REST API and SOA approaches. Additionally, it will cover pragmatic reconciliation, explaining how APIs can provide a platform for business stakeholders sponsoring enterprise IT renewal and pragmatic business execution.
The paper also reviews four different SOA and API mindsets: big SOA, small SOA, API-access and API-centric enterprise. Finally, it explores how organizations can strengthen their architecture environment and gain API-centric agility. This includes a discussion of when enterprise teams should create services and APIs, best practices for service and API governance, and their impact on application governance.
The white paper can be downloaded at http://wso2.com/whitepapers/wso2-whitepaper-soa-and-api-convergence-strategy-and-tactics.
