SOA: The Missing Link Between Enterprise Architecture and Solution Architecture

Overview Enterprise Architecture (EA) is increasingly being acknowledged as the way to maximize existing IT investment while planning for future growth. As a discipline, enterprise architecture is tasked to ensure Business-IT alignment through architectural oversight and guidance. It provides enterprises with a 4-dimensional model (Business, Information, Application, and Technical architecture) to analyze and determine the right set of IT-related decisions to enable and support business strategies. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is essentially about bridging the gap between the business and IT through well defined, business-aligned services, developed by subscribing to established design principles, frameworks, patterns, and methods.
