SOA

Service Oriented Architecture (abbr. SOA) is a substantial and growing body of practical techniques for designing shareable, reusable, interoperable web services. The past few years have seen the emergence of a universal, standardized, SOA-enabling middleware fabric built on the WSDL, SOAP and UDDI.

FEW KEY POINTS TO NOTE:

SOA can be implemented using any service-based technology. It is independent of development technology, viz. – Java, .NET. Thus, the software components become very reusable because the interface is standards-compliant and is independent from the underlying implementation of the service logic

Unlike traditional point-to-point architectures, SOAs comprise loosely coupled, yet highly interoperable systems.

SOA can support integration and consolidation activities within complex enterprise systems

And finally, a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) isn’t a technology, product, service or protocol in itself, although several companies offer software products, which can become integral components of a SOA.

Web Services Description Language is commonly abbreviated as WSDL, pronounced (weez dell) in technical literature: It is an XML format for describing network services as a set of endpoints operating on messages containing either "document oriented" or "procedure oriented" information. The operations and messages are described abstractly, and then bound to a concrete network protocol and message format to define an endpoint. Related concrete endpoints are combined into abstract endpoints (services). WSDL is typically used with SOAP over HTTP, but it is extensible to allow description of endpoints and their messages independent of what message formats or network protocols.

UDDI is an acronym for Universal Description, Discovery, and Integration – Written in 2000, its a platform-independent, XML-based registry for businesses worldwide to list themselves on the Internet. UDDI is an open industry initiative (sponsored by the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards, OASIS enabling businesses to publish service listings and discover each other and define how the services or software applications interact over the Internet.
