The concept of SOA (service-oriented architecture) advocates an architecture that focuses not on products or product suites, but rather on re-usable software building blocks – so-called services. 

The ground-breaking aspect of SOA is the departure from the idea that every business process must be modeled by a particular product. Instead, the SOA model dissembles program packages into services; these are oriented on the actual business processes and linked with one another subject to needs fulfillment criteria.

In the field of SOA, CENIT offers you:

• Policy consulting at business-field level: What advantages can an SOA offer me? What risks does it entail for my enterprise?
• Analysis of the existing application landscape
• Consulting on how individualized applications can be migrated to an SOA
• Programming services during migration
• Assistance in selecting and implementing additionally required standard applications (IBM WebSphere Application Server, MQ Message Queue, ESB Enterprise Service Bus, etc.)
• Where required, operation of the entire application landscape (application management)
• Adaptation of individual applications to an already existing or planned SOA

CENIT is one of the most successful partners of IBM, the IT corporation that has taken the lead in advancing the SOA concept. Our consulting team has been familiar with IBM’s product portfolio for many years. Simultaneously, CENIT offers own SOA-compliant products.

In an SOA, not only the IT processes but also the business processes must be designed to be service oriented, so as to permit a consistent design. CENIT is particularly qualified in this field because it selects consultants who bring both technical competence and familiarity with the sector to the table.
