SOA enables organizations to overcome the traditional problems associated with applications that are too inflexible to support business change.
The promise of a service-oriented architecture (SOA) is facile systems – flexible, extensible, infinitely reusable, always predictable and reliable. SOA is a philosophy and methodology aimed at creating flexible, adaptable, sustainable businesses. Under SOA, the idea of reuse permeates the thinking of an entire organization, permeates the consideration of every process, project, and purchase. It is a journey of transformation that takes place over time.
