 h1. Entry points into SOA
 \\
 {panel}How do I get started with SOA?{panel}
  
  There's no one simple answer for how to get started with SOA, but IBM has some suggestions that are pretty helpful: Five [SOA Entry Points|http://www.ibm.com/software/solutions/soa/soaentrypoints/] ([details|http://www.ibm.com/software/solutions/soa/entrypoints/]).
  There's no one simple answer for how to get started with SOA, but IBM has some suggestions that are pretty helpful: Five [SOA Entry Points|http://www.ibm.com/software/solutions/soa/soaentrypoints/] ([details|http://www.ibm.com/software/solutions/soa/entrypoints/]). The entry points are closely associated with the [IBM SOA Foundation].
  
 Briefly, the entry points are:
 # *People* -- Collaboration among people (coordinated by computers)
 # *Process* -- Automation of repeatable business processes
 # *Information* -- Access points for common data
 # *Connectivity* -- Application integration that is standards-based and interoperable
 # *Reuse* -- Business-oriented building blocks
  
 They're described in the white paper "[Entry points into SOA: Taking a business-centric approach|ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/software/websphere/soa/pdf/SOAbrhigh.pdf]" (PDF), available in the [IBM SOA Library|http://www.ibm.com/software/solutions/soa/library.html].
