Support the modern applications that your organisation relies on by gaining the skills to design, build, and maintain a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). In this SOA training course, you learn how to create an effective SOA by modelling, designing, and orchestrating services that merge the business and technical requirements of your organisation.

You Will Learn How To

  • Develop and manage a modern SOA
  • Map an organisation as a set of services
  • Model the SOA messages from business use cases
  • Design to facilitate integration and performance

Important Course Information

Pre-course Exercise:

  • You will be asked to do about 2 hours of pre-course homework and present it in class.

Recommended Experience:

  • Some involvement creating business applications

Who would benefit most from this training:

  • This course is for any one involved in designing service oriented architectures: business analysts, project leads, system architects, and developers.
  • In this course we determine what services an organisation requires and how those services should be designed and organised to support the needs of the organisation and the service’s consumers. The course does not cover the business logic that would be developed to implement the services (instead see, course 577 (Java) or 2601 (.NET)).

About the software used:

  • While REST-based applications are emphasised, the role for WSDL/SOAP services and queue-based services are also discussed. Additionally, Enterprise Architect, Professional Edition is used for SoaML modelling.
