What is SOA Anyway?
• As Wikipedia sees it, Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is:
– an architectural style – that guides all aspects of creating and using business
processes, packaged as services– throughout their lifecycle– defining and provisioning the IT infrastructure– allows different applications to exchange data and
participate in business processes – loosely coupled from the operating systems and
programming languages underlying those applications

• Every major equipment vendor and software supplier

Is This a Pipedream??
• Through SOA:– A User or Business Process can connect via almost any
device to almost any application or tool– Be authenticated for security– Watch the video (or access the process)– Have a transaction record built for billing (and maybe
revenue sharing – as required)
– No one provider does everything but many can have a piece of the action and do what they do best to satisfy the user’s or business process’s need
