  What is a services oriented architecture?  
 

A Services Oriented Architecture (SOA) is more than just an architecture with web services-it covers the policies, practices, and frameworks by which we are able to guarantee that the right services are provided and consumed by applications. The intent of SOA is to provide a worldwide mesh of collaborating services, which are published and available for invocation. Companies have realized that adopting SOA is essential to deliver the business agility and IT flexibility promised by Web services. Having an XML Web services orientation has clearly emerged as the consistent strategy for connecting systems, both to each other and to all the other technical assets in the organization.

 
     
 

Many companies have disparate architectures and often want to integrate them into a more cohesive environment. Often they come up with a new platform from the ground up. This can be expensive and in many cases not feasible. An SOA is the best way to make these information islands work together.

 

A Services Oriented Architecture is the best way to make information islands work together. SOA is made easier by Microsoft .NET because it ensures true interoperability with other platforms.

 
  Sogeti provides the expertise to make your transition to an SOA as easy as possible.  
     
 
     
  SOA with Microsoft .NET  
 

SOA is made easier by Microsoft® .NET. Microsoft ensures true interoperability with other platforms by adhering to WS-I standards. Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 provides enhanced support for architecting with a service-orientation and exceptional support for web services development. Visual Studio® 2005 is closely integrated with Web Services Enhancements (WSE), giving developers a more secure system for building and consuming Web Services. The Visual Studio 2005 add-in Information Bridge Framework (IBF) allows developers to build web services based on solutions that access enterprise business data, which can be viewed directly from Microsoft Word, Excel or Outlook.

 
     
 

Visual Studio 2005 provides a new modeling canvas for architects focused on the challenge of designing distributed systems using Web services. It comes with two new designers, both using the System Definition Model (SDM), a XML schema for describing software components, computer hardware, networks, and interactive models. The first is an application designer for modeling the SOA components and their interaction. The second is a datacenter designer for modeling the processors onto which the services will be deployed.

 
     
 

All of this can be tightly integrated across the enterprise because an emphasis on SOA is a common theme across all Microsoft products. For instance, BizTalk Server can expose orchestrations as web services, thus allowing for web service gateways to business applications that would otherwise lack native web service support. SQL ServerT 2005, with its native support for XML can expose stored procedures as web services. Notification services can be used to publish and subscribe to information feeds. SQL Service Broker can be used to support services designed on a distributed data model.
