Cloud Ecosystem of Managed Services
Standard Integration Services
Integration Services offer capabilities that support a number of different integration patterns so that applications and services can interact. Applications aligned to service-oriented and event-driven architectures can exchange information via synchronous and asynchronous communcation.
Description
The queue management services provides a means for applications to implement asynchronous integration patterns for loose coupling.
Key Capabilities Include:
- Queues - Create and manage queues such that messages from a producer and delivered to a consumer and acknowledged.
- Topics - Create and manage topics such that messages from a producer are delivered to subscribers .
- Messages - Post and Retrieve messages to / from a given Queue or Topic.
Maturity:
FCS believes this capability has reached a level of maturity in FCS where it can be used and deployed in a limited capacity or upon special request from a customer/tenant.

Description
The Service Mesh services provide a means to manage network traffic for services deployed into a containerized environment.
Key Capabilities Include:
- Side Car - Service Mesh's typically operate using the side car pattern allowing the service mesh and applications to be deployed seamlessly.
- Encryption in Transit - Service Mesh's provide the ability to add encryption in transit protections to data being delivered from one service to another.
- Network Firewall - Service Mesh's provide the ability to provide additional network rules for allowing/disallowing traffic.
Maturity:
FCS believes this capability has reached a level of maturity in FCS where it can be broadly deployed and used by FCS Tenants. Uses and limitations are well understood and costs have been baselined.

Description
The Pub/Sub services provide a means for applications to send and receive notifications as part of a distributed, event-driven architecture.
Key Capabilities Include:
- Event Source - The ability for events to be sourced from a variety of components and services.
- Message Ordering - The ability to configure how messages are delievered relative to how they are received.
- Subscribers - The ability for multiple components and services to subscribe to receive events.
