A service-oriented architecture is essentially a collection of services. These services communicate with each other.
The communication can involve either simple data passing or it could involve two or more services coordinating some activity.
Some means of connecting services to each other is needed.
SOA supports the delivery of IT as a service. It brings an end to monolithic, rigid application architectures and the high maintenance costs associated with them.
An SOA can help the organization:
Enhance business agility
Synchronize IT with your business
Break the barriers between business units and business partners
Lower the cost of maintaining IT systems
Focus your resources on innovation rather than maintenance
Speed delivery of web services to meet business demands
Provide support for IT process automation
