Course overview

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) expresses an architectural concept which defines the use of services to meet the requirements of software users. An SOA environment will consist of nodes on a network which make resources available to other participants in the network as independent services (for instance Web Service) which are accessed in a standardised way.

Due to the highly interoperable nature of SOA services, technologies such as Java and .NET can co-exist. Software components tend to be reusable, so for instance a C#.NET service may be used by a Java application, and/or any other programming language which can access this service, as the interface can be defined in a standards-compliant manner which 'hides' any vendor- or language-specific implementation from the calling service.

With so many "SOA badged" tools available it can be hard to know where to start looking, or even to know what you should be looking for. Our instructors' impart their real-world experience of implementing SOA in large commercial, retail, banking & financial organisations in a series of case studies aimed to help you make the right decisions about your SOA strategy. This course is non vendor-specific so you'll get good, impartial advice.
