Providing a comprehensive plan to interrelate business with technology, SOA combines the talents and skills of an entire organization, with its requisite needs and computing know-how. Presenting the necessary tools—processes, best practices, and standards—for developing a sound SOA, Service-Oriented Modeling: Service Analysis, Design, and Architecture introduces a service-oriented modeling framework that employs an agile and universal business and technology language to facilitate analysis, design, and architecture initiatives.
Offering easy-to-understand modeling language and notation that are simple to use, the book provides answers to the most common questions that face enterprise leaders concerning service-oriented architecture development life-cycle initiatives. The book deftly explores:
