Purpose
Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) governance enables organizations to realize the full potential of SOA. It addresses issues that, if left unattended, may be inhibitors to gaining the flexibility and time-to-market benefits associated with SOA. An SOA provides organizations with the fusion of business processes and the underlying IT assets; increasing flexibility and responsiveness to change.
The Rational Method Composer plug-in for SOA Governance helps identify appropriate best practices, merged with your existing IT processes, to provide proper governance of the capabilities introduced with SOA. The end result is a project plan to create your organization's unique governance framework.
Using IBM Rational Method Composer, you can scope your project to amend existing IT processes and add new IT processes to provide proper governance of the capabilities introduced with SOA.
