Sustainable IT Architecture: The Progressive Way of Overhauling Information Systems with SOA

Description

This book focuses on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), the basis of sustainable and more agile IT systems that are able to adapt themselves to new trends and manage processes involving a third party. The discussion is based on the public Praxeme method and features a number of examples taken from large SOA projects which were used to rewrite the information systems of an insurance company; as such, decision-makers, creators of IT systems, programmers and computer scientists, as well as those who will use these new developments, will find this a useful resource.Content: Chapter 1 Initial Perspectives (pages 1–6): Chapter 2 Company?oriented Services (pages 8–19): Chapter 3 SOA Maturity Levels (pages 21–29): Chapter 4 Economic and Social Aspects (pages 31–35): Chapter 5 The Properties of SOA (pages 38–68): Chapter 6 Orchestration (BPM and SOA) (pages 69–92): Chapter 7 The Discovery of Services (Reference Framework and Urbanization) (pages 94–109): Chapter 8 The Praxeme Enterprise Method (pages 111–128): Chapter 9 Modeling with Praxeme (pages 129–172): Chapter 10 Tools for Industrializing the Method (pages 174–221): Chapter 11 Systems Integration and Common Information Language (pages 223–241): Chapter 12 SOA Platform (pages 243–266): Chapter 13 Rules Management at the Scale of the Whole Enterprise (pages 267–285): Jerome BoyerChapter 14 Semantic Integration (pages 287–298): Erik Steinholtz
