Abstract :
Enterprise systems are quickly evolving from monolithic silos to distributed applications with service-oriented flexible usage schemes. To keep up, IT organizations must adapt their legacy systems to meet changing business challenges almost in real time, with no second chances. Service-oriented architectures (SOAs) have evolved to flexibly operate and federate business processes and underlying systems. Authors Nicolas Serrano, Josune Hernantes, and Gorka Gallardo provide an overview of current SOA technologies and how to evolve in legacy environments.
