Over the last 5-7 years the industry has seen an amazing maturization by adopting. The idea of business-IT alignment has never been a new concept but among the hardest to achieve. SOA has solved this for many companies, providing business and IT a new common language to talk in- services. But can things really be that simple? Yes and no. Let’s probe deeper. If complexity has been removed from the business-IT interaction, where does it go? Yes, the IT layers. The IT industry loves the concept of abstraction and SOA takes this one step ahead into the business. While the business talks to IT in lucid language, complex, heavy IT machinery underneath does the heavy lifting. |
SOA has its many pitfalls, and it has to be done the right way. The industry has many best practices and methodologies in this area. These have been tuned by experience from industry heavyweights like Accenture and IBM. And as SOA has a heavy focus on open source, many of the methodologies have now been shared by the heavy-weights and are available under open licenses. Aludra’s architects and consultants have years of industry experience in SOA, web-services, SAAS. They have designed ground up SOA systems using minimal cost open source solutions like Mule, JBoss and others. |
The large corporations can go to the heavy weights for their SOA, but what about the small-medium business enterprises? Realizing this gap in the market, Aludra has created a SOA methodology called SOAR which has been specially optimized for the SMB sector. SOAR is easily realizable using open source solutions, which too have a focus on the small-medium businesses. |
