Understanding Service-Oriented Architecture
Overview The rapid adoption of J2EE standards, Java, XML and Web service technologies has resulted in many enterprises adopting a much more loosely-coupled architectural framework in which to host enterprise business applications. This framework is called the Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). Although Web services are currently being used as a mechanism to promote a service-oriented architecture, it is important to understand the architectural fundamentals of service orientation to fully reap the benefits. Service orientation doesn't alter everything - in fact, far from it. Service-based architectures are evolutionary, not revolutionary, and it is the aim of this short paper to discuss the core concepts of a service-oriented architecture.
