While the benefits of SOA have been well documented, the challenges associated with an enterprise-wide SOA deployment have not. The distributed nature of this loosely-coupled architecture encourages reuse and provides a high level of agility for the business, but can also give rise to real challenges in the delivery of SOA-based applications.

In this white paper, you will discover how to manage the unexpected issues that arise during SOA deployment. Learn how identifying SOA-related challenges earlier in development and including the appropriate solution in the architecture reduces the possibility of re-architecture in a post-deployment environment. Gain insight into the fundamental attributes of all SOA implementations and the challenges associated with typical SOA deployment models.
