Today, more corporations are leveraging service-oriented architecture (SOA). Increasing globalization trends and substantial integration requirements between systems in heterogeneous business environments make SOA a reliable solution offering significant advantages. SOA makes it possible for corporations to integrate disparate systems, decrease their development costs, share services, integrate systems quickly, and build the best solutions in the industry. SOA services allow organizations to truly align their business processes with their technologies, providing new levels of flexibility. Businesses must no longer limit their processes to fit within the context of a software program- the future of software is piecing together only the required components using reusable services.
Members of Int3s contributed significantly to the advancement of SOA technology with the development of the Rosetta ESB, which later served as the base code for JBoss' ESB. This was a fundamental step toward the growth in popularity of open-source ESB's. Since then, ESB-based solutions have consistently been part of the Int3s toolbox.
There has been substantial growth in the initiation of SOA implementation projects over the past several years. Companies are beginning to realize the efficiencies of reusing their assets as services across departments and systems.
Benefits of SOA Solutions
Decreased development time: SOA developments are easily reused and can be quickly assembled into new, composite applications.
Reduced maintenance costs: Reusable services reduce the number and internal complexity of IT services.
Higher quality services: Increased service reuse generates higher quality services through multiple testing cycles from different service consumers.
Decreased integration costs: Standardized services know how to work together, enabling different applications to quickly and easily connect.
Reduced risk: Fewer, reusable services provide greater control over corporate and IT governance policies and reduce the overall risks.
Improved business visibility: Integrated systems and aggregated data give a consistent, accurate view of your customers.
