  • Overview


    The goal of a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is to enable organizations to realize business and technology advantages through a combination of process innovation, effective governance, and a technology strategy that revolves around the definition and re-use of services.

    While SOA is a long-term strategy that requires sustained focus on transforming the way IT is delivered, it must respond to immediate business initiatives. In consequence, the benefits of SOA will only be realized if you preserve a balance between the long-term goals and the shorter-term needs of the business. You can maintain that balance by instituting a set of organizational, financial, operational, design, and delivery practices from the outset of the SOA initiative.
