Service-oriented architecture (SOA) can introduce new levels of complexity that put your business at risk. This is why SOA governance has become a key component of SOA initiatives.
SOA governance accelerates the adoption of SOA and helps you guard against risks to your business by delivering:
- Visibility – Creates an environment where services can be easily found and understood by consumers at every phase of their lifecycle
- Trust – Establishes consistency, interoperability and formal service agreements between consumers and providers
- Control – Enables the management of the service lifecycle from introduction to retirement
Without effective governance, both the adoption of SOA and the ability of an SOA to scale as demand grows is impeded. Through the SOA Governance and Architecture Service, HP works with you to deploy the programs needed to establish and administer an SOA. These programs enable your IT organization to more efficiently and cost effectively support highly diverse and unpredictable business requirements.
HP SOA Systinet is a complete SOA governance and lifecycle management platform. It provides a trusted “system of record” and a set of capabilities for establishing the visibility, trust and control critical to SOA success. HP SOA Systinet makes it easy for you to advertise and discover services for reuse, manage the service lifecycle, achieve policy conformance, establish agreements between service providers and consumers, and communicate the status of your SOA.
