Guidance for the Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) Approach
The SOA approach enables applications to be built from independent services that are accessed in a standard way. ISIS provides a set of workshops and one-day courses that build an organization's knowledge base about SOA environments. These workshops and one-day courses can be provided at an organization's location.

SOA Strategy
Any successful SOA strategy has to be aligned with business goals, such as reduced time-to-market for applications, integration with business partners, or improved customer service. Each goal drives a different set of SOA strategies. This workshop explores the linking of business goals with SOA strategies and identifies potential pilot projects. As a result of this workshop, an organization develops a plan to identifying its SOA priorities and implementing a set of concrete tasks.
Basics of SOA
In this half-day working session, SEI experts walk participants through the elements of SOA and reveal some common misconceptions about it.
SOA Governance
SOA governance provides a set of policies, rules, and enforcement mechanisms for developing, using, and evolving SOA assets and for analysis of their business value. In this workshop, the SEI team facilitates a session to help the customer organization develop a set of appropriate SOA governance polices, procedures, and practices. The SOA Governance workshop is a natural complement to the session on SOA Strategy.
Introduction to SOA
The Introduction to SOA course delves into the basics of SOA, including its common misconceptions and the four pillars of
SOA-based systems development (strategic alignment, SOA governance, technology evaluation, and a change in organizational
mindset). This course provides participants with a firm grounding in the basics of this popular approach to achieving system interoperability.
Introduction to SMART (Service Migration and Reuse Technique)
In this course, participants gain insight into the challenges of reusing legacy systems as services within an SOA environment.
They also learn about the SMART process that helps organizations
- determine whether it makes sense to migrate legacy systems to services
- decide which services it makes sense to develop
- assess the changes needed in the legacy system to accomplish the migration
- evaluate migration strategies
