Enterprise SOA presents a complete roadmap for leveraging the principles of Service-Oriented Architectures to reduce cost and risk, improve efficiency and agility, and liberate your organization from the vagaries of changing technology.

• Benefit from the lessons of four enterprise-level SOA case studies from Credit Suisse, Halifax Bank of Scotland, and other world-class enterprises

• Make your business technology independent and manage infrastructure heterogeneity by focusing on architecture, not specific implementation techniques

• Recognize the technical and nontechnical success factors for SOA in the enterprise

• Define and communicate the economic value proposition of an SOA

• Apply pragmatic design principles to solve the problems of data and process integrity in an SOA environment

Whether you're a manager, architect, analyst, or developer, if you must drive greater value from IT services, Enterprise SOA will show you howfrom start to finish.
