Meaning and definition of service oriented architecture :

 

Service Oriented Architecture: Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) attempts to increase the flexibility of available software resources. Existing application platforms make top executives feel their hands are tied. The cost of switching to a platform can be exceedingly high. SOA is an attempt to minimize these costs through the use of a more modular approach. Software is typically designed to support a business context. Services are designed without advanced knowledge of the tasks and uses they will be called upon to support. SOA helps to establish loosely coupled connections across existing applications and databases quickly and cost effectively. IT services can be accessed when needed from wherever they reside. Where the software is located becomes irrelevant as far as users are concerned. As John Hagel III and John Seely Brown mention in their book, “The only sustainable edge”, software will become increasingly commoditized and will be able to switch from one module to another. Loosely coupled connections can consume a lot of computing and network resources. So coordination of distributed processing power is exceedingly important. For SOAs to become economically applicable, computing power must be made flexibly available.
