Confidential, Chicago - IL

Consultant

Responsibilities:

• Allstate Financial Producer Connectivity initiative is a solution that integrates with five policy management systems and extends their functionality for Web-based access by Allstate’s countrywide network of producers.
• Allstate follows the industry standard design patterns for the entire architecture of AA and VRU. All calls from the Web/Web Services tier into the solution’s business logic pass through an emissary (service gateway), which is a C# assembly that abstracts the interface into the application tier. The emissary uses the remoting functionality in the .NET Framework to serialize the objects passed to it and sends the objects on to the application tier, using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) Channel with the binary formatter.
• On the application tier, an executant implemented as an ASP.NET page with C# code behind it receives the HTTP post, rebuilds the object (along with the user’s security credentials), checks the user’s autantication status, and calls the intended business function. Components that need to read or write data to execute a business function can go to two places: directly to the ODS (Operational Data Store) or through the integration tier to a policy management system.
• If a component needs access to data residing in a mainframe, the component creates an XML message and passes it to BizTalk Server 2002. BizTalk Server translates the XML message to the proprietary XML format required by the application connector in the integration tier, logs the message, and passes it on to an integration broker (a C# component) that in turn sends the XML message to the integration tier using an HTTP post.
• In the case of Transcend, Allstate’s UNIX-based annuity management system, the business logic components use the COM interop feature of the .NET Framework to access a COM component that communicates with a brokering program running on the UNIX host over straight IP socket calls. In the system services layer, the technical architecture team extended the role-based security mechanisms in the .NET Framework to accommodate Allstate’s unique business needs.
