Service Oriented ArchitectureWhat is SOA?Service-Oriented Architecture is an IT and Business strategy that organizes the discrete functions contained in an enterprise applications into interoperable, standards-based services that can be combined and reused quickly to meet business needs.

Why SOA?

Business agility depends on the free flow of information, services and business processes across the organization. However this flow is stymied by the heterogeneous nature of the typical large enterprise. Multiple platforms (IBM, BEA, Microsoft, SAP, Oracle etc) and technologies (J2EE, .NET, Legacy, etc.) require IT to hard code the point to point connections, hampering the swift flow of information and slowing the delivery of new business services. Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) has emerged as the leading IT strategy for streamlining service delivery. SOA takes the discrete business functions contained in enterprise applications and organizes them into interoperable, standards-based services that can be quickly be combined and reused in composite applications and processes. The desire for Organizations to be service driven is creating a significant pull for IT to adopt SOA.Copyright Polaris Software Lab Limited, 2005. Confidential.
