SOA Case Study: Orchestrating Integration Across Disparate Applications

Overview The study discussed in this paper presents the benefits of adopting an SOA approach for dramatic improvement to operations. Host Integration Server 2004 exposes server functionality to Web services, making it easy to expose disparate LOB systems, and BizTalk Server 2004 makes it easy to create complex business logic that is centralized, simple to manage, and easy to integrate with front-end applications. This service-oriented solution exposes previously unreported error information via Microsoft Operations Manager, making the entire infrastructure easier to manage.
