Guide - Intershop Order Management - Technical Overview

Introduction

The Intershop Order Management System (IOM) as a middle-ware for e-commerce combines the order processes used in all various channels. It takes incoming orders from all available channels and connects them with selected order fulfillment processes. Depending on configurations, these processes are individually managed for each combination of channels. In addition, it provides the customers with greater transparency on product availability, order status, and returns. Thus, it supports call center employees, warehouse employees, and business managers in their respective work-field.

This guide gives a technical overview of the Intershop Order Management System as well as the applied technical concepts and latest technology updates.

The main target group of this document are system administrators.

Overall Architecture

Overview

The following figure provides a very high-level overview of components of IOM, other components required by IOM, and their relations. When going from top to bottom, the following components can be found:

All incoming communication has to go through an HTTP-Proxy, which has the following purposes and requirements:

  • Load-balance the incoming HTTP/HTTPS traffic to the IOM application servers.
  • Provide session-affinity (sticky sessions) for requests to OMT.
  • Terminate HTTPS since IOM application-servers are only able to handle HTTP traffic directly.
  • Observe health-status of IOM application servers in order to send HTTP requests to healthy servers only.

It can be seen that there are IOM application servers of two different types. Every IOM installation needs to have exactly one application server that is running IOM scalable applications and IOM singleton applications. For high availability and scalability much more IOM application servers may be part of the IOM cluster, but these must run IOM scalable applications only. More information can be found in the section IOM Application Server.

The IOM application servers are using two different kinds of persistent storage: a shared file system and a database. In fact, an IOM installation is defined by its data, persisted at these two places. Therefore, the persistent data have to be managed very carefully. They have to be backed up both, in order to be able to restore an IOM installation.

Finally, the IOM applications need to be able to access an SMTP server in order to send e-mails as part of implemented business processes.

HTTP-Proxy

Any HTTP proxy that meets the requirements listed in the Architecture Overview can be used. The section Ingress and Ingress Controller provides more information about actual implementation.

IOM Application Server

IOM applications are running inside Wildfly Application Server. This application server provides many base technologies used by IOM, e.g. JMS, JPA, EJB, etc.

For further information please see https://docs.wildfly.org/.

Shared File System

The following table gives an overview of the directory structure of IOM's shared file system.

Sub-DirectoryDescription
archive/

Folder used to archive old data, principally sensitive one, before deleting them in the database.

importarticle/Import/export of all kind of data (products, stocks, dispatches, returns)
communication-messages/Exchange of data, e.g., for orders.xml
media/Media data, e.g., product images
pdf/PDF documents created by IOM application server, e.g., invoices, credit notes, delivery notes
jobs/Reserved for projects, working files, and archived files for scheduled jobs for projects

PostgreSQL Database Server

IOM requires a PostgreSQL Database Server. For further information see https://www.postgresql.org. The section PostgreSQL Database Server will give more information on how to use the PostgreSQL Database Server along with IOM.

SMTP Server

An SMTP server is required to send different kinds of e-mails. The section SMTP Server provides information on how to use the SMTP server along with IOM.

Helm Charts for IOM

Unable to render {include} The included page could not be found.

Customization

An IOM installation without customization cannot do anything. It is an empty shell only that needs to be filled.

Customization of IOM consists basically of the following things:

  • An SQL configuration, defining the behavior of IOM,
  • Mail and XSL templates for creation of mails and PDF documents,
  • Deployment artifacts for various purposes, e.g. to modify business processes or to adapt customer systems,
  • Any sort of files needed otherwise, e.g. certificates.

All these data have to be provided by implementation partners in a very special way, which is described in Directory Structure of IOM Projects. The easiest way to provide artifacts in this standard project structure is the usage of the IOM Project Archetype. Projects created this way also provide the ability to easily create the project-specific IOM docker image. This docker image can then be rolled out by IOM Helm Charts.

Logging

IOM writes all logging information to stdout. Each log-entry is written as a single line in JSON format. There are different sources of log-messages, all using different formats. To enable automated processing of such log-lines, all different log formats are providing unique meta-data, which give more information about the content and structure of the "real" content.

Meta-Data

KeyDescription
logHostThe hostname of the pod that has written the log-line
logVersionThe log-type-specific version of log-format
logType

access|message|script

access: access-log of Wildfly's undertow sub-system

message: log-messages written by Wildfly Application Server, its sub-systems, and IOM

script: messages written by shell scripts, e.g. to start Wildfly, initialize the database, etc.

appNameThe name of container and customization if available, e.g. iom, iom+ci
appVersionThe version of IOM and of customization if available, e.g. 5.0.0+1.2.0
configNameName of project configuration that was selected, e.g. ci.

access-log

Version 1.0 of access-log provides the following information:

KeyDescription
eventSourceDefault entry, made by undertow subsystem. The source of the event in the request. There is redundancy with meta-data, but the undertow sub-system should not define the content of IOM's meta-data.
hostNameDefault entry, made by undertow subsystem. The Wildfly host that processed the request. There is redundancy with meta-data, but the undertow sub-system should not define the content of IOM's meta-data.
bytesSentThe number of bytes sent in the body of the response.
dateTimeDate and time of request, using format-string: "yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSXXX" (see JavaDoc of SimpleDateFormat).

Configuration

Logging can be configured by a set of parameters, all having the prefix log. A detailed description of these parameters can be found in Operate Intershop Order Management (GitHub).

IOM Application Server

Overview

IOM is a system that is mainly event-driven. Events trigger business processes that run asynchronously within the IOM application servers.

These business processes may send other events, triggering other business processes, and so on. Initial sources of events may be HTTP requests, coming from outside or jobs and schedules, triggered by timers.

Technically, events are realized by Java Message Service (JMS), and business processes are realized by message-driven beans.

Deployment Artifacts

The following list shows the deployment artifacts of IOM and the order in which they are loaded.

bakery.base-app-${version}.ear

The application Base contains the essential (and crucial) functionality of the IOM and provides several functionalities used by the other applications.

Customization

Right after base application, applications provided by project customizations will be loaded.

process-app-${version}.ear

The application Process contains message-driven beans and is the starting point of the business processes of the IOM. Typical business processes are the announcement of an order, routing of ordered articles to one or more suppliers, creation of invoice documents, or creation of payment notifications. Processes are triggered by the Control application, by other locally running business processes, and by incoming HTTP requests. Messages are sent and received locally only, not from other application servers.

bakery.impex-app-${version}.war

The application Impex is responsible for the import and export of selected business objects. Impex can be used to exchange data with the connected actors as required. Possible business objects can be orders, customers, or products, for example.
The application Impex is one of the singleton applications and must be deployed on one IOM application server only.

bakery.control-app-${version}.war

The application Control is responsible for all processes that should be triggered periodically (scheduled). Scheduled processes are for example:

  • Continue processing of business objects in an abnormal state
  • Import and export

The application Control is a singleton application and must be deployed on one IOM application server only.

bakery.communication-app-${version}.ear

The application Communication is responsible for communication with external applications. Intended external applications are mostly shops and suppliers. Offered services include general order handling, return management, stock reservation, and more. Services are offered as SOAP and REST.

For further information see:

oms.rest.communication-app-${version}.war

The application Communication is responsible for communication with external applications. Intended external applications are mostly shops and suppliers. Offered services include general order handling, return management, stock reservation, and more. Services are offered as SOAP and REST.

For further information see:

gdpr-app-${version}.war

The application GDPR offers functionality including REST interfaces to support the General Data Protection Regulation of the IOM as well as other external systems that can be connected.

Also, see Reference - IOM REST API.

rma-app-${version}.war

The application RMA offers functionality including REST interfaces to support the process of Return Merchandise Authorization of the IOM as well as other external systems that can be connected.

For further information see Overview - IOM Return Merchandise Authorization and Overview - Intershop Order Management REST API.

transmission-app-${version}.war

The application Transmission offers functionality including REST interfaces to support the message transmission handling of the IOM.

For further information see Overview - Intershop Order Management REST API.

schedule-app-${version}.war

The application Schedule provides the functionality of customizable, timebase-triggered jobs.

For further information see Cookbook - IOM Job Framework and 

order-state-app-${version}.war

The application Order State is a replacement of the SOAP OrderState service and offers a REST interface to get the status of one or more orders for given search criteria.

For further information see Overview - Intershop Order Management REST API.

order-app-${version}.war

The application Order is a replacement of the SOAP Order service and offers a REST interface to create orders.

For further information see Overview - Intershop Order Management REST API.

bakery.omt-app-${version}.war

The application OMT is the standard graphical user interface of the Intershop Order Management System.

It can be used to manage the IOM in a more comfortable way using a common Internet browser. This tool provides functionality to manage customers, items, and orders. Due to the sensitive data, a login is needed. For this purpose, the OMT comes with user and role management.

For frontend functionality, the application uses several frameworks e.g., Bootstrap, jQuery, and others. The backend of the OMT is based on frameworks such as Spring, Spring MVC, and Hibernate.

oms.monitoring-app-${version}.war

The application Monitoring supports the monitoring of application servers.

Please see section Health Check Requests for more information.

Quartz Jobs

The message-driven beans defined by the application Control are triggered by Quartz jobs, defined in quartz-jobs-cluster.xml. Since the application Control is rolled out on one IOM application server only, Quartz configuration becomes effective only on the IOM application server on which the application Control is deployed. But the Quartz sub-system and the corresponding job configuration are active on all IOM application servers. Please keep this in mind when customizing Quartz jobs.

See also Reference - IOM Quartz Jobs 2.2.

Schedules

There is a second concept that allows time-based orders to be triggered: Schedules.

This concept is mainly intended to be used by projects to define custom jobs. The respective application Schedules is rolled out on all IOM application servers. Hence, the jobs triggered by Schedules are running on all IOM application servers, too.

Also, see Cookbook - IOM Job Framework.

JMS

In contrast to traditional JMS-driven applications, Java Messages in IOM are sent and received only locally. There is no distribution of JMS events across different IOM application servers.

High Availability

High availability (HA) can be defined as follows:

The system is designed for the highest requirements in terms of performance and reliability. Several platform capabilities allow easy scaling without downtimes.

The following sections describe a tested and working approach to enabling IOM to be highly available.

IOM Application Servers

High availability can be provided by using multiple IOM application servers running in parallel. As shown in the section Overall Architecture, there are two different types of IOM application servers. Each IOM cluster needs to have exactly one IOM application server that is running IOM singleton applications. However, these IOM singleton applications do not process any requests coming from outside. Instead, the IOM singleton applications process jobs only asynchronously.

From the standpoint of High Availability, all IOM application-servers are identical in their ability to process requests synchronously. Hence, if there is at least one running IOM application server, the application will be available.

For high availability, Helm value replicaCount has to be set to 2 or higher, see Operate Intershop Order Management (GitHub).

During updates of IOM, the system cannot be available since database migration cannot be processed while application servers are still running. For more information see Operate Intershop Order Management (GitHub).

Shared File System

Some directories of IOM servers are containing stateful runtime data that have to be shared by all IOM servers. These directories are placed as sub-directories within the shared file system of IOM.

Intershop recommends to use an HA-ready storage service for a shared file system. Otherwise, IOM cannot be highly available. If the shared file system is not available, all IOM servers are affected and will not be able to answer any requests.

For high availability, an highly available storage class needs to be used. See Operate Intershop Order Management (GitHub).

Load Balancer / Ingress Controller

According to section Ingress and Ingress Controller the Load Balancer / Ingress Controller can be provided globally within Kubernetes cluster or by IOM Helm Charts itself. If the global Ingress Controller is used, it has to be ensured that it is highly available.

Sticky Sessions / Session Failover

Session stickiness and session failover are realized by the Ingress controller.

If one of the IOM application servers is not available, e.g., for an upgrade or technical issues, the load balancer / Ingress controller has to be able to send all incoming requests dedicated for this IOM application server to one of the remaining IOM application servers. To do so, IOM provides a REST API for health check requests, which informs the Kubernetes cluster about the state of each IOM application server. The according configuration is already part of IOM Helm Charts. The health check requests support the load-balancer / Ingress controller in deciding which IOM application server to use and which not.

Health Check Requests

All IOM application servers provide a health check that can be requested using the URL /monitoring/services/health/status. It responds with HTTP status code 200 if the application server is healthy. Otherwise, it responds with 5XX.

To ease error analysis, the content delivered by the health check URL contains further information about processed checks. This information is provided in a machine-readable format (JSON), which can also easily be understood by humans.

See Concept - IOM Server Health Check for more information.

High Availability Database

IOM application servers are all connecting to the PostgreSQL database.

For high availability of the whole system, also the database and connection to it have to support HA:

  • A database reconnect has to be possible.
  • PostgreSQL HA cluster must be usable.

DB Reconnect

To provide HA, the application servers are able to reconnect to the database without a restart.

To work properly, invalid connections must be recognized and evicted from the pool. The xa-datasource configuration defines how this happens.

IOM uses the background validation checker rather than the validate-on-match method to reduce checking overhead. Moreover, the timeouts configuration parameters may influence the reconnect behavior (old connections might not get evicted as long as the timeouts are not reached). For more information about data source configuration, see Datasource Parameters in the Wildfly documentation.

The current configuration of IOM xa-datasource looks like this:

Exemplary Configuration of XA-Datasource
# The pool size depends on the number of application servers and the database server ressources.
# It can be set at runtime by according environment variables
/subsystem=datasources/xa-data-source=OmsDB: min-pool-size="${env.JBOSS_XA_POOLSIZE_MIN}"

# required by metrics
/subsystem=datasources/xa-data-source=OmsDB: statistics-enabled="true"

PostgreSQL HA Cluster

IOM supports access to PostgreSQL HA clusters, but always has to be connected to the master database.

A PostgreSQL HA cluster usually consists of one master server and one or more hot-standby servers. The master server is the only one that is allowed to change data. The failover process requires an additional witness server if the total number of servers (masters + standbys) is odd.

During the failover, the IOM application must be redirected to the new master. One solution is to add a proxy layer between the IOM application servers and the Postgres HA-cluster. This proxy-layer can be realized by PgBouncer. PgBouncer has to be reconfigured on the fly (without restart) whenever the current master changes. PgBouncer being a connection pool, can also be used to limit the number of connections to PostgreSQL. More than one instance of PgBouncer should be defined to avoid single points of failure.

The IOM database connection address is defined by the Helm parameter oms.db.hostlist, which supports a number of one or more database host addresses. For more information see Operate Intershop Order Management (GitHub).

For more information about PostgreSQL, HA clusters see http://repmgr.org and https://pgbouncer.github.io.

Clock and Time Zone Synchronization

All IOM application servers and the IOM database require synchronized clocks. Additionally, all IOM application servers and the IOM database have to use the same time zone. Currently, the time zone is fixed and will be set for IOM application servers and the database to Etc/UTC.
