Will the SOA services be like this one day?

Please do refer to my latest article which got published on enterprise.in and here is the link and this should serve as an introduction to what I am going to discuss in the ensuing paragraph.

If all applications either legacy getting migrated to the SOA model or the new ones getting designed in the SOA fashion, we are surely building black boxes which can talk to each other to get the work done via web services. The fun part of the whole story is that the different modules work in such a fashion that even if you remove and replace with other, chances are other modules getting affected is almost zero which truly is the best case of modularization and the real black box at work.

One of the advantages of the is that any given organization can concentrate all its energy into its core focus area and rest all it can outsource very easily as long their core focus area and the outsourced modules all talk to each other in a SOA fashion.

There are few advantages in outsourcing services in SOA way

- You can create SLAs very specific to the service required

- You dependence level will be not critical on a given service provider

- Switching cost between vendors is very minimal and none in most cases

- M&A activity becomes easier, also using same modules across departments and across geographies becomes that much easier and integration across becomes better and faster

- All these together will increase productivity exponentially and also make execution such a smooth motion

- Many more such advantages

There are many applications across enterprises yet to take advantage of SOA but in future I am expecting more and more enterprise applications will get migrated to SOA to take plethora of advantages of SOA.
