Tags:
web development and design

To survive and prosper, companies must reduce operating costs, increase automation and control, and prepare to scale the number of business relationships they can support. Increasingly, the remedies to the challenging problems lead to one question: What is the role of the network? The transport-centric vision for the network is now giving way to a converged vision in which enterprise and network architecture meet separated by a framework called Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA).
