Box 875212 Tempe, AZ 85287-5212 ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY _________________________ Allyson Taylor Buyer AT/AP 4 Revision October 23, 2019 SECTION II – PURPOSE OF THE RFP 1. INTENT Arizona State University is seeking proposals for an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) and Application Programming Interface (API) development and enablement platform. Arizona State University has a broad and diverse set of software applications, both custom developed and third party provided, which operate across various operational platforms. A business critical function for the University Technology Office (UTO) acting as the central IT organization at ASU, is to provide the ability to connect these disparate applications with each other by sending data or triggering events between systems. The UTO also has assumed the responsibility to provide a Services Oriented Architecture as well as in general, exposing ASU owned data and services through APIs. An ESB is a key component to support a service oriented architecture. The University may choose to enter into multiple contracts under this solicitation. After awarding, the University does not guarantee a certain amount of hours or work or projects per year. At the university’s discretion, a successful proof of concept (POC) may be required as part of the award process. 2. BACKGROUND INFORMATION ASU is soliciting proposals from those in the ESB technology space and requesting proposals which will meet or exceed our ASU integration and API requirements. In 2014, ASU began using the Mulesoft Enterprise Service Bus on-premise technology platform as the application product to connect ASU systems as well as creating APIs and other web-services for a variety of business functions. ASU has dozens of systems that need ESB integrations such as: Workday Financials, PeopleSoft Human Capital Management, PeopleSoft Campus Solutions, Salesforce (multiple organizations), Canvas (Student LMS), Cornerstone (Faculty/Staff PDMS), ServiceNow, Atlassian (JIRA/Confluence), Slack Enterprise Grid, StarRez (Student Housing), AdAstra (Classroom scheduling), CollegeScheduler (Civitas – Student schedule planner), AWS Redshift and Aurora (Datawarehouse environments), AWS S3, Dropbox, DocuSign, hundreds of Drupal CMS sites, and many ASU custom built applications serving a multitude of business functions. Enterprise Service Bus Architecture The existing ASU Enterprise Service Bus utilizes an on-premise solution. All ESB instances, production and pre-production are hosted within the ASU datacenter. ASU is currently in the process of migrating the ESB platform to the Amazon Web Services public cloud infrastructure utilizing AWS as Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). All ESB management and administration will still be controlled by ASU UTO staff. The ASU Operations team uses a product called Control-M to initiate all batch ESB flows and also to check and report on processing status. The production environment uses fourteen processor cores which is split between functional business groups as follows: PeopleSoft, Salesforce, Workday, DocuSign, and UTO Tools. All ESB flows are assigned to be run in one of these business groups. Additionally, ASU has a 5 Revision October 23, 2019 Development (DEV) and Quality Assurance (QA) instance of our ESB. There are six total pre- production processing cores available. ASU currently has 110 integrations with: • 50 related to the PeopleSoft business group, • 40 related to the Workday Financials business group, • 15 related to Salesforce, and a handful dispersed to the other business groups. ESB Message Analytics Day Week Month Batch Jobs: Records Processed 988,050 5,759,371 24,493,381 API Calls 100,102 496,650 2,024,305 ESB Server Analytics Server Average Max Total Memory App01 31.7GB 37GB 62% App03 16.79GB 17GB 56% Traffic App01 735kb/sec 8.9mb/s 55GB/week App03 404kb/sec 3.7mb/s 30GB/week Processor App01 43% 86% (Weekly) App03 55% 98% (Weekly) Note: ASU has four servers, for brevity only data on two are displayed. App01 has 5 cores and handles real-time messaging. App03 has 2 cores and is a batch server. The majority of our existing ESB flows originate with an HTTP endpoint which then connects to a database or uses a delivered connector to one of our main target systems of Workday Financials or Salesforce. There are some flows which also connect to other APIs such as JIRA, Canvas, or other miscellaneous supplier provided APIs. Of the developed ESB integrations, approximately 40 utilize batch data processing and the remainder are real-time. At the moment, almost all of our developed APIs are private to ASU applications or trusted suppliers are provided firewall access with credentials. We don’t currently have publically available APIs. Arizona State University is a new model for American higher education, an unprecedented combination of academic excellence, entrepreneurial energy and broad access. This New American University is a single, unified institution comprising four differentiated campuses positively impacting the economic, social, cultural and environmental health of the communities it serves. Its research is inspired by real world application blurring the boundaries that traditionally separate academic disciplines. ASU serves more than 100,000 students in metropolitan Phoenix, Arizona, the nation's fifth largest city. ASU champions intellectual and cultural diversity, and welcomes students from all fifty states and more than one hundred nations across the globe. 6 Revision October 23, 2019 More information about ASU is located at http://www.asu.edu. 3. TERM OF CONTRACT ASU will contract for one (1) year with the possibility of four (4) successive one (1) year renewals, for a total term not to exceed five (5) years. The contract will be available for use by other University departments during this term. In the event a proof of concept (POC) is part of the final awarded contract, the initial term of the contract would be the length of that POC. The University may consider alternative contract term periods if it is deemed advantageous to do so. If alternative contract terms are proposed, they should be specific in the Pricing Schedule (Attachment A). Note: Alternative terms cannot be in lieu of the term stated above. http://www.asu.edu/ 7 Revision October 23, 2019 SECTION III – PRE-PROPOSAL CONFERENCE A pre-proposal conference will be held on Thursday, November 7th at 11 AM MST via Zoom. The purpose of this conference will be to clarify the contents of this Request for Proposal in order to prevent any misunderstanding of the University's intention and desires, and/or to give prospective suppliers an opportunity to review the site of the work.
