SOA Scenarios From IBM, Part 2: An Introduction to SOA Solution Scenarios

Overview

The SOA scenarios represent a set of generic business scenarios in which SOA is being used in typical customer engagements. IBM's wealth of customer-engagement-based experience in SOA implementation has been consolidated into the SOA scenario framework. The SOA scenarios are representative of common scenarios of use of IBM products and solutions that are used in SOA engagements to solve real-world problems. In this first paper of the series on SOA scenarios, one explores a broad overview of the eight scenarios, their relationships and their interdependencies. One also learns the process of how to apply the SOA scenarios in a real-world SOA engagement. This process will be referenced and actually executed in the following papers in this series.
