Implementations of the present disclosure include methods for provisioning services in a business network. In some implementations, methods include receiving data corresponding to a first service, receiving data corresponding to a second service, processing the data corresponding to the first service and the data corresponding to the second service using a computer-executable tool selected from a plurality of computer-executable tools to enable provisioning of a service using the business network, and the processing being performed in a situational modeling layer of a service provisioning framework, generating a kernel model corresponding to the service, the generating being performed in a kernel modeling layer of the service provisioning framework, and storing the kernel model in computer-readable memory.

Framework for diversified provisioning of services into business networks

In one embodiment, a method for integrating a service into an application is provided. The method determines an application extensibility description for an application. The application extensibility description includes a set of application extension points. The method determines a service description for a service, the service description including a set of service elements. An adaptation pattern is determined and includes a first port connected to an application extension point in the set of application extension points and a second port connected to a service element in the set of service elements. A computing device generates an integration description based on the adaptation pattern having the first port connected to the application extension point and the second port connected to the service element. The integration description allows the application to be adapted or extended with the service.
