The ModelSolv Approach: Semantic Model-Oriented Service Architecture

ModelSolv delivers a cohesive approach that dramatically simplifies service API development, and sets the stage for new services and consuming applications to integrate in unforeseen ways, quickly and cheaply.

Semantic Model-Oriented Service Architecture, or SeMOSA, is the application of Canonical Models to the problem of service API definition.

Canonical Data Model and its SOA-specific relative, Canonical Schema, are well-known patterns in message-based integration. This is a simple and powerful idea: standardize the definition of information that is to be communicated among systems, and use these standard representations in all of the service APIs within a given boundary -- typically an organization, a department, or a cluster of closely related systems.

But defining, managing and making effective use of these Canonical Models presents significant challenges. SeMOSA is a highly evolved, methodical approach that addresses these challenges, and exploits the full power of Canonical Models:

Provides a semantically rich, technology-independent facility to define Canonical Models that represent business concepts and information.
Provides a framework for full-lifecycle management of Canonical Models, including versioning, change impact analysis, consolidation and deprecation.
Integrates governance workflow (top-down) and collaboration (bottom-up) as complementary practices to achieve convergence.
Addresses the pervasive problem of model variation, which naturally results from differences in perspective and usage context.
Provides an on-ramp to Canonical Models for legacy services and applications.

Strategic Consulting and Integration Services

We help our clients navigate the maze of new technologies and paradigms -- including REST, SOA, WOA, MDM, Semantic Web and others -- to solve their real-world integration challenges.
We generate new insights and offer innovative solutions to dramatically lower integration cost, speed time to market, and reduce runaway complexity across the service landscape.
We synthesize the most useful aspects of modern modeling languages and methods into a cohesive, unified approach.
We solve the tough problems of lifecycle management -- model evolution, interface versioning, variation, legacy migration, collaboration, governance, and standardization -- to realize the potential of model-oriented SOA.
We help our clients evaluate and apply intelligently the standards that are most relevant to their integration strategy, including industry standard message formats, modeling languages, APIs, frameworks, toolkits and methodologies.
We help our clients position their IT strategy to achieve deep interoperability that goes way beyond WSDL, addressing both semantic and syntactic mismatch, tackling the pervasive problem of model and API variation, enabling true convergence to common canonical models without compromise.
We effectively use semantic information models as the building blocks for service-based integration.

Software Platform

We are building the next-generation platform for service-oriented design, API management and strategic data integration. using a unique model-oriented approach.
