DoDDoD’’s Approach to s Approach to Developing Net CentricityDeveloping Net Centricity
Program Decision Memorandum (PDM) III, December 20, 2005, Tasked the Assistant SecDef for Networks & Information Integration / DoD Chief Information Officer(ASD(NII) / DoD CIO…. “To accelerate the provisioning & adoption of Core Enterprise Services (CES) acrossDoD.
In commercial industry speak, that means to start developing a System Oriented Architecture (SOA) approach for C2.

PerspectivePerspectiveThe DoD must continue to evaluate/assess technology’s impact on the current war. And quickly adopt approaches that increase our combat capabilities
7
We believe that Net-Centric Environment “e.g. SOA approach” is the next principal mechanism for enhanced Command Capability of Joint C2.

• Emerging technologies, like SOA and innovative CONOPS must accelerate, together
• Viable technologies must be rapidly integrated into current C2 practices, allied operations, training, and doctrine for maximummaximum effectiveness
• Warfighter needs are dynamic, our coalition arrangements are unique, and the “funding-requirement-acquisition” process is unacceptable in the ‘immediate’ for the soldier on the patrol
Changing the Business Model Requires:(1) Willingness to work together to leverage each others core competencies (2) Focus on Joint Warfighter as central driver – solution need originator and evaluator(3) Commitment to providing meaningful services rather than inflexible “products”
8
Focus on Joint Joint WarfighterWarfighter’’s urgent s urgent operational needoperational need --solution providers must forge a single ‘integrated’ enterprise to reduce risk in satisfaction of that need.

TRANSFORMATION EFFORTS:• Moving away from a Soviet based system• Moving to a professional as apposed to a conscript
based force• Moving to a capitalistic based economic model• Moving to asymmetric warfare • Moving to a net-centric combat capable force
At the request of Poland’s Chief of Defense (CHOD), a combined NATO and USJFCOM, Poland’s Military staff, plus Industry and Academia constructed a near term Common Operating Picture (COP).Constructed a near term SOA environment to integrate Poland’s Air, Land and Sea into a combined Common Operational Picture. Supported Poland’s role as a NATO member & US strategic partner

These web systems and services will have a unique combination of characteristics that differentiate them from more conventional legacy client server applications. In particular, they tend to include:
• Architecture places data at the center of its design: Enterprise Resource Pattern (ERP) & Enterprise Service Bus (ESB)
• ERP standardizes access to any C2 domain object (APIs)
• ESB publishes messages based on an event/trigger
• Rapidly changing technologies, e.g. more actors, platforms, networks, and services not applications

With the net centric approach, user engagement occurs in the “sandbox”during the combined evaluation referred to as the “piloting” events.

David LinthicumTop 5 Mistakes w/ SOA,
1. Not enough trained IT/SOA architects to put on the problem. 2. “Manage by Magazine” approach to SOA.3. Don’t understand the unique nature of their problem domains. 4. Treat SOA as a project, not a journey.5. Unable to define the value.
Jim Green, Designing Reusable Software, - Types of services:
(1) put data in, (2) get data out- SOA & error handling => careful planning
Oh, by the way: David said, “I Actively tracks 120 different SOA standards20% to 30% are duplicative At any one point in time.”

• Service Requires alignment across 4 dimensions• Functional, (2) Structural (3) Behavioral (4) Performance• Interaction Model (-Request Reply, -Store & Forward, -

Melissa Soley, BAH, Trans-National COPBAH Mission Engineering (ME) method is a bottom-up IER data capture approach
• Very intensive data capture approachPoint of interest: 80% of an Intel Analyst’s time is spent simply retrieving data not analyzing.
Sean Fitts, Amber Point• Keys to SOA Runtime Gov’n
• Visibility => what is going on & who is using it?
• Control => Actions to prevent or correct issues
• Integrity => Ensuring changes don’t impact the whole infrastructure
