Engineers and technology experts have the challenge today to generate better applications in less time and at less cost. Companies and organizations need to be assured that their investments in technology are not lost and at the same time are going to achieve the goals of usability, integrity and ability to grow smoothly.
What is SOA?
Service orientation is an architectural concept that defines the use of services to support the requirements of the software.
Provides a methodology and a framework for standards-based.
Relevance of SOA
At present, 75% of those responsible for IT planning to invest in SOA [Yankee Group]
"By 2008, over 75% of the application packet will be natively SOA or expose SOA interfaces through a wrapping layer interfaces (probability 0.8)" [Gartner, 2003]
"By 2008, SOA will be the prevalent practice of software engineering, ending 40 years of domination of monolithic architectures (probability 0.7)" [Gartner, 2003]
Development
Louder Application Platform has the frameworks necessary to reduce complexity and accelerate development processes using components specially designed for business applications.
The frameworks are easily integrated with existing IDEs such as Zend Studio for Eclipse, NetBeans or Eclipse + PDT.
Business Process Management
With the high level of automation of both workflow and user navigation, business processes can be optimized and improved by increasing the adaptability of applications to changing requirements by offering value-added products.
Scalability
Sometimes is not easy determine when application will grow or when it is not given importance as should be the process of designing an application. Louder middleware transparently enables building applications that can easily scalar more robust environments. Container Applications are responsible for most parts of details of low level making that developer focus on business requirements without worrying about the efficiency of implementation.
User Interaction
The defendants rich user interfaces can be implemented using maintainable architectures that require less coding and to conform with the objectives of the application.
The report generation and reporting has also been specifically dedicated to the business environment by providing the end user handling and use according to your requirements.
Services with UDDI registries
Louder Middleware enables publishing / consulting services for Web logs with UDDI. Providing consulting services in the repository of corporate applications become more robust SOA implemented.
