Service-Oriented Design (Part I: Introduction)
Service Oriented Design (Part I Introduction)
At the beginning of Chapter 11 we stated that the service-oriented analysis phase is probably the most important part of our SOA delivery lifecycle. If this is the case, then the service-oriented design phase is a very close second. The service-level decisions made at this stage collectively will determine the quality and longevity of the resulting SOA.
Throughout the following four service-oriented design chapters, we emphasize the fact that custom design standards are a crucial part of this stage. We do this because their use and adherence will ultimately set the "potential barometer" for realizing many of the primary benefits of contemporary SOA.
