SCA defines how services can be described, assembled, and deployed in a meta-data driven fashion, independent of an implementation language and a deployment platform. The approach is based on the idea that each business function consists of one or more components brought together into a composite application. These, in turn, are composed into a network of services that create specific business solutions.<p><a href="http://andrewborley.sys-con.com/node/329862" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Wed, 28 Mar 2007 17:15:00 EDT http://andrewborley.sys-con.com/node/329862 http://andrewborley.sys-con.com/node/329862#feedback http://andrewborley.sys-con.com/node/299972 A challenge facing many organizations is how to quickly and effectively react to frequent changes in business requirements, whilst improving productivity and reducing costs. To achieve this, you need a flexible infrastructure that can meet the demands of a changing marketplace and seize emerging opportunities. To address this challenge, Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) promotes an architectural approach that replaces rigid proprietary systems with heterogeneous, 'loosely-coupled' services. The Service Component Architecture (SCA), along with Service Data Objects (SDO), makes this architectural concept a reality and provides the programming model to build SOA solutions for agile businesses.<p><a href="http://andrewborley.sys-con.com/node/299972" target="_blank">read more</a></p> Fri, 23 Feb 2007 15:00:00 EST http://andrewborley.sys-con.com/node/299972 http://andrewborley.sys-con.com/node/299972#feedback
