For SOA, The Future of Quality is Federated
|
If history is an indicator of future innovation cycles, the unique challenges of establishing Net-Centric government practices will contribute new techniques that can make SOA Governance happen for the business IT community at large. The question is, when? This paper outlines several key strategies for leading the way to a true Net-centric approach to SOA Lifecycle Quality and testing, which is one of the three primary components of SOA Governance.
A continuous certification process must be established as a shared way for all Publishers and Consumers in the SOA to constantly validate that expected structural, behavioral, and performance policies are being met by this software approach. The richness of the Policies that get modeled, and the consistency of your validation, is the direct indication of the level of Trust that consumers will have in SOA.
Whether you are architecting SOA for the business world, or the public sector, this document should provide insights that help you instill best practices for SOA Lifecycle Quality for your Governance effort.
