SOA Principles
This course looks at the principles and techniques needed to build a Service Oriented Architecture infrastructure.
Service Oriented Architecture provides a set of principles for governing the design of a system that must be loosely coupled. It defines the concepts and principles for changing a system to meet realisation goals. Such an architecture, when fulfilled will package functionality as interoperable services. It encapsulates the progressive thinking from a number of disparate architects and developers into a single cohesive system called a SOA infrastructure or Service Oriented platform. This allows different applications to exchange data with one another, traditionally done by EAI frameworks.
