PRZOOM - /newswire/ - Andover, MA, United States, 12/05/2007 - Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) essentially is a collection of services which facilitate the exchange of data between disparate systems.

SOA allows different applications to communicate with each other and participate in business processes regardless of the operating systems or programming languages underlying those applications. This dramatically simplifies the ability to integrate systems and data. SOA can be distributed over a network and can be combined together and reused to create more integrated business applications. These services communicate with each other by passing data from one service to another, or by coordinating an activity between one or more services.

SOA helps To-order manufacturers respond more quickly and cost-effectively to ever changing market conditions. With a Service-Oriented Architecture, interactions with customers, partners, supply chain members, and colleagues become more flexible, collaborative and integrated. This is vital in today’s continually evolving and challenging manufacturing environment.
