What is Service Oriented Architecture

(SOA)?
SOA is an architecture pattern for developing distributed systems
where the system functionality is developed, deployed and utilised as
stand-alone software services.

Three building blocks of SOA Publishe

Typical Examples s
- Weather Reporting Service Service Service
- Currency Conversion Service Requeste Provider
- Language Translation Service r
Bind
- Video Streaming Service
Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)

Service consumer expresses “intent”

Service providers define “offers”

Software Services
A Software Service can be defined as:
a loosely-coupled, reusable software component that encapsulates
functionality which may be distributed and programmatically
accessed.

a set of related software functionalities that can be reused for


different purposes, together with the policies that should control its usage.

A Web Service can be defined as:


as a service that is published and accessed using standard Internet and XML-based
protocols.

Key Aspects of Software Services
Services can be discovered
Services can be composed to form larger services
Services adhere to a service contract
Services are loosely coupled
Services are stateless
Services hide their logic
Services are reusable
Services use open standards
Services facilitate interoperability

Service-Orientation in Real World
Our society has become what it is today through the
forces of
Specialisation
Standardisation
Scalability

It is now almost exclusively “service” oriented

Service-Orientation: the Restaurant
Analogy

▪Restaurant provides food: a service

▪After the order is taken, food is produced, served, …: service


may consist of other services

▪The menu indicates the service provided: a service description

▪The order is written down, or yelled at, the cook: services


communicate through messages
SOA based on Web Services

SOA is a means of developing distributed systems where the


components are stand-alone services.

Services may execute on different computers from different


service providers.

Models in Software Engineering
▪ Model-driven engineering (MDE) is a software engineering methodology
which focuses on creating and exploiting domain models, which are
conceptual models of all the topics related to a specific problem.
[Wikipedia]

▪ Model Driven Engineering, MDE for short, aims to raise the level of
abstraction in program specification and increase automation in
program development.
What Exactly is a Model?
A model is an abstract representation of a product,
service or system that allows us to investigate, verify
and document its properties before production
