Retailer Moves to Service-Oriented Architecture for Increased Business Agility
Overview In the 1970s, Crutchfield's car stereo catalogs revolutionized the industry by catering to do-it-oneself audio enthusiasts. Nowadays, Crutchfield leads in expertise and service for a range of consumer electronics and relies on IT to support a growing and diverse online presence. While the company's entrepreneurial approach to building systems resulted in unique and valuable capabilities, it also made those systems difficult to manage. In order to increase business agility, Crutchfield needed to move to a service-oriented architecture where applications share core services. To help solve interface issues and ease development of these new services, Crutchfield chose Windows Communication Foundation, part of the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0. Using the service-oriented architecture of Windows Communication Foundation, Crutchfield expects to respond more quickly to business needs.
