Mashup Patterns: Designs and Examples for the Modern Enterprise
Price: $39.99 USD

“Enterprise architects think in high-level architectural patterns. This book cuts through the mashup marketing fluff and gets right down to presenting patterns as a way to analyze and solve enterprise problems using mashups.”

–John Crupi, Chief Technology Officer of JackBe and Coauthor of Core J2EE Patterns

 

“Mashups offer an opportunity to rapidly deliver value to the business, either on top of an existing internal corporate SOA or on common freely available Internet services. In this work, Ogrinz guides the reader through frequently encountered scenarios in the mashup space. The examples alone will help you think laterally about the problems facing your business and new ways of solving them.”

–Kevin P. Davis, Ph.D., Software Architect

 

Mashup Patterns is an excellent, comprehensive treatment of a subject increasingly central to corporate IT management. With the benefit of his extensive software architecture experience, Michael is able to provide a wide array of mashup solutions to real world data wrangling problems. He clearly explains how to successfully apply mashup patterns and avoid going down anti-pattern rabbit holes. This book is a must-have for developers venturing into the vast and rapidly expanding enterprise mashup space.”

–Daniel Leuck, CEO, Ooi

 

“Michael Ogrinz takes a broad view of mashups, focusing on their growing (and potentially revolutionary) role for harvesting and repurposing data within the modern information-driven enterprise. Don’t look for code or programming tips here, because you won’t find them. What you’ll find instead are inspiring examples, clever ideas, and new ways to use the data already hiding in your business and in the Web around you.”

–Rob Miller, Associate Professor of Computer Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology

 

“To a user, a mashup has all the personal qualities of an advanced form of spreadsheet, except it’s not limited only to figures; this is only a fraction of the value that enterprises can gain from deploying mashups as well-managed sophisticated tools. Michael has done us all a service by producing this book as a great step forward in helping IT and business managers to access this value.”

–Andy Mulholland, Global Chief Technology Officer, Capgemini

 

“Mike Ogrinz has done an excellent job with thorough analysis of the various mashup patterns. What makes this book very exciting is the timing, when everyone wants to know more about mashups as well as the wide range of audience this book caters to. From director to engineer, everyone can find examples relevant to them. Congrats, Mike, on a job well done!”

–Sona Srinivasan, IT Engineer/ITG Architect, Cisco Systems

 

“Michael Ogrinz does for mashups what the illustrious Gang of Four (Gamma, Helm, Johnson, and Vlissides) did for object-oriented software design. He starts with a buzzword-free explanation of what mashups are and how they matter to the enterprise. He then presents a taxonomy of ready-to-implement design patterns, chock-full of concrete examples. Finally, he includes an appendix of realworld case studies, ranging from a Web 2.0 startup to the Defense Intelligence Agency. This clear, readable, no-nonsense book is a must-have for enterprise IT workers who are ready to embrace the brave new world of Enterprise 2.0.”

–Daniel Tunkelang, Ph.D., Chief Scientist, Endeca

 

“Mashups tear down traditional barriers around data, allowing it to be extracted and recombined freely. This book provides a new and clear way to think about online applications and about data itself, showing how to build powerful solutions from simple and direct components.”

–Paul Rademacher, Software Engineer, Google, and creator of HousingMaps.com

 

“No organization or developer thinking about mashups, SOA, and the future of enterprise development should miss this book.”

–John Musser, Founder, ProgrammableWeb.com

The Best Mash-ups in the World Are From San Francisco 2
Last year, in its review of The Best Mashups In The World Ever Are From San Francisco, Remix magazine took note of the citys red-hot bastard-pop scene and gave the underground compilation 4 1/2 out of 5 stars. Now, hot on the heels of that provocatively-titled CD comes its follow-up The Best Mashups In The World Ever Are From San Francisco 2 and its that rare sequel that actually surpasses the artistry of its predecessor. Featuring 19 tracks by 13 of the Bay Areas best DJs and artists, The Best Mashups In The World Ever Are From San Francisco 2 proves once again why SF is known as ground zero of the American mashup scene. In March 2006, Marke B. wrote in the San Francisco Bay Guardian, The Bay Area has proved a fertile ground, producing a freaky cadre of experimental bastard-pop artists that rivals Londons snider, status-obsessed lawsuit-baiters and New Yorks hip-hop-flavored laptop jockeys. track listing: 1.

Mashup Corporations: The End of Business as Usual
Price: $40.00 USD
Mashup Corporations: The End of Business As Usual tells the tale of Vorpal Inc., a company that pioneers the implementation of service-oriented architecture to transform its business model. CEO Jane Moneymaker believes in marketing manager Hugo Wunderkind's idea of creating a new market using non-traditional methods based on mashups, but struggles to achieve this vision. The story illustrates what it takes to achieve cultural change, overturning established business and IT structures. By embracing a service-oriented approach Moneymaker makes Vorpal faster, flexible and more responsive, bringing an end to business as usual. Mashup Corporations takes a unique approach to communicating its message. From the first page, readers will find themselves in a story populated with people who interact in ways that will ring true to others who have struggled to make technology work in an organization, large or small. The conflicts that naturally arise between CEOs, CIOs, and line of business managers illustrate the important issues at stake within Vorpal and most other companies. As the leaders of Vorpal find their way out of their predicament, rules about how mashups and service orientation can be properly applied emerge. These rules, which may be the most enduring contribution of the book, are illustrated and analyzed using real-life examples.

Introduction to the Second Edition
Since the publication of the first edition of Mashup Corporations: The End of Business as Usual in October 2006, the adoption of business models related to mashups, Web 2.0, and service oriented architecture (SOA) has continued to accelerate. New applications, new products, new techniques, and, most importantly, new ideas are blooming. The authors are pleased to report that the first edition of the book has met with a warm reception. Forrester, the analyst firm, recommended it as one of the two most entertaining and informative books on the subject. The book has been adopted by several different companies as an educational tool. Capgemini created a live-action play based on characters in the book that was presented at Oracle Open World during a keynote address by Andy Mulholland.

Sales of the book have been brisk and so have suggestions for improvements. Based on this success, the authors decided it was time for a second edition.

What We Added
You will find two additional chapters in this second edition: "Chapter 7: Overcoming Barriers" and "Chapter 9: Changing the Game". The idea for chapter 7 came out of discussions between the authors and Avrami Tzur, VP of SOA at Hewlett Packard. Avrami pointed out that even though the story of the book covered the process of adopting mashups and SOA from top to bottom, a different sort of struggle emerged as the early adopters in a company attempted to convince the rest of the company to come along. Based on Avrami's experience, we added a chapter that covers the struggle to overcome barriers to adoption of mashups and SOA. Anyone who knows Andy Mulholland is well aware of his prodigious output in the form of blogs, white papers, and of course, books. Andy's analysis of how to think about mashups, SOA, and Web 2.0 in an integrated, strategic fashion is contained in "Chapter 9: Changing the Game". As the body of experience and knowledge about mashups and SOA grows, we hope that others like Avrami approach us and add their experience. Only by harvesting such knowledge can we move this story forward and make the book even more effective in explaining the potential business value of mashups and SOA. In this way, our effort may become a successful instance of a blook, content that combines aspects of a blog and a book.
