Overview:

In the ever changing industries of today coupled with the race to remain competitive, companies can no longer be burdened and constrained with the rigid IT structures that have been productive for them in the past. As businesses and their goals change so should the supporting services and infrastructure. Historically, shifts in strategy and goals have been slow, expensive and occasionally prevented because there was no affordable way to change tightly coupled applications, data, and infrastructure. Today this is unacceptable. The solution to these problems is commonly known as a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). SOA is an approach to designing IT architecture and business services based on the principles of flexibility and reuse under strict governance.
