“…Organizations need to decide how to implement governance over the SOA implementation in the organization. Technology adoption alone is not enough to enable business or IT transformation [4] -for the fact that decisions made in the information system affect and are affected by the impact that IT has on business processes [14]. When organizations choose to treat integration as just another technology implementation, experiences show zero to minimal reuse, minimal improvement in business responsiveness or flexibility, and higher IT costs over time [4].…”

Abstract. This research provides a theoretical conceptualization of SOA governance aspects that can be used to assess SOA governance practices and provide guidance to improve them. The review of IT and SOA governance shows that there are conflicting claims and inconsistency in the literature concerning the role of SOA governance. Moreover, there is no empirical evidence on the implications of the governance frameworks used for SOA and how they are working in the most effective ways. As a result, there is confusion in practice as the issues of SOA governance have not been successfully addressed. Based on an extensive analysis of major governance frameworks, a comprehensive list of key SOA governance aspects is proposed. This research will focus on the assessment of the importance of SOA governance aspects by finding the role of the governance framework during the different activities of SOA lifecycle and outlining the discrepancies between theory and practice.

“…On the lowest layer, the external and internal resources are located. Standardized interfaces abstract these resources from their technical implementation and facilitate the loose coupling of different resources fulfilling a central requirement of service-oriented architectures (High et al 2008). These resources are provided by internal developers or offered by external vendors.…”

“…Since these easily break down in evolving SOA systems and new concepts are constantly introduced, the taxonomies are used where classification schemes are permanent. Ontologies have the benefit of being resilient to change and are used to capture alternative views and terms for the same ideas [1]. Ontologies change mapping definitions with semantics and allow the identification of appropriate mapping when required.…”

“…When using SOA methods, businesses find that creating these models from scratch can be arduous, expensive, and take too long to complete. Instead, many businesses are choosing to follow a relevant industry standard that offers common services and business process definitions as well as information and message models [1]. For businesses, the adherence to industry standards introduces a new challenge -the challenge to utilize industry standards effectively.…”

“…Businesses must cope with: a) the huge number of models created during such projects; b) models which are usually very large and complex; and c) the difficulty of maintaining the models and tracing across them. For example, Figure 1 illustrates a typical SOA solution stack (S3), as defined by Arsanjani et al [1] [2]. It provides a detailed architectural definition of an SOA across nine logical and physical layers that aim to reinforce business value definition.…”

Businesses recently began shifting from proprietary models towards industry standards. Today, when businesses are faced with medium and large SOA projects, they strive to standardize their business process models, information models, and message models by complying with known industry standards. As service orientation and composition become more important, these standards also become critical for efficient SOA integration. However, in doing so, the businesses face a new challenge -the challenge to effectively utilize the industry standards models. Using industry standards models effectively is difficult since they are typically large and complex, thus resulting in the creation of vast amounts of inter-relationships. To meet this challenge, we describe a new approach that provides a holistic view of these heterogeneous SOA models and corresponding industry standards. Such a unified view must provide access to heterogeneous data sources and models, allow search and query of them as a single model source all across the SOA solution stack, and provide advanced services such as traceability, scoping, and impact analysis. To validate the proposed holistic approach, we describe a model catalog and repository system and present its use on a fieldbased example.
