Common Barrier for SOA

11


Barriers to a SOA Pilot

• Purely Technical Pilots• Pilot is a single web service• Nothing user facing to demonstrate success• Nobody cares but IT

• Pilot is Not Process Driven• A key value of SOA is in process-driven software• Need to target a business process

• SOA Purist Approach – Legacy Applications• Delay user pilots until all web services are built• Get the SOA infrastructure right, but don’t delay user

value

• Fails to Show Business Value• Essential to show value of SOA to maintain commitment• Accelerate the user visibility to your SOA

12


AJAX – SOA Accelerator

• Quickly Show Business Value to the User• Create process driven interfaces• Skin existing applications and add functionality

• Accelerate the Pilot Level• Bind to web services as well as legacy applications• Interface release can precede/parallel SOA infrastructure

• Make the Back-End Modular• SOA initiative can continue and bind to AJAX interfaces• Web services replace existing bindings without user

impact

• Meet in the Middle Approach to SOA• SOA planning follows a structured and disciplined process• AJAX interfaces allow early realization of benefits
