Iteration 1: CHOReVOLUTION Platform
Requirements and Integration Requirements
1. Identify an initial set of
new challenging
capabilities
2. Define the baseline
requirements
3. Cross-verification and
refinement of baseline
requirements
4. the requirements are
organized into local
requirements, integration
requirements, and
development
requirements

time
The CHOReVOLUTION
platform is a toolbox of
well-integrated frontend
applications and backend
(middleware) components
enhanced by a flexible
cloud infrastructure.

10. CHOReVOLUTION STUDIO
The CHOReVOLUTION Studio is
an eclipse-based IDE that allows
choreography designers and
service providers to:
A. design a choreography
exploiting the CHOReVOLUTION
notation (based on BPMN2);
B. define all the details needed for
instrumenting the interaction among
the services involved in the
choreography (e.g. service
signatures, protocols, QoS, identity
attributes and roles)
C. drive the generation of Binding
Components, Security Filters,
Adaptors, and Coordination
Delegates exploiting the Synthesis
Processor and the eVolution
Service Bus (VSB) REST APIs

11. CHOReVOLUTION CONSOLE
The CHOReVOLUTION Console is
a web-based application that allows
choreography owners to:
A. configure, administer and
trigger corrective actions on
running services and
choreographies;
B. monitor the execution of a
choreography with respect to some
parameters of interest

12. CHOReVOLUTION BACK-END
The CHOReVOLUTION backend
is composed by middleware
components that exposes REST
APIs that:
A. generate the Concrete
Choreography specification
and all the related BCs, Ads,
CDs, SFs.
B. deploy configure and
control BCs, Ads, CDs, SFs
on the CHOReVOLUTION
cloud infrastructure
A

C. manage authentication and authorization for services at run-time that uses different
security mechanisms at protocol level by storing different credentials on behalf of the caller
and managing authorization policies.
D. propagate/synchronize service/user profiles to/from external resources and provides
managed services
12

13. CHOReVOLUTION CLOUD
All the described components aim
at putting into execution concrete
service choreography instances on
a cloud infrastructure and at
adapting the execution based on
the actual application context.
Thus, at execution time, for each
choreography, in the
CHOReVOLUTION cloud there are:
A. a set of choreography instances
at different execution states;
B. a set of virtual machines
executing a custom-tailored mix
of services and middleware
components to serve different
parts of the choreography.
