Intraclient's SOA provides the flexibility for rapid execution of outsourcing and offshore strategies
Web services are important to the adoption of service-oriented architectures because the XML standards let companies easily connect existing data or processes to different applications or people, according to analysts. For example, by putting a Web services interface on an inventory tracking application, a company can give both PC and PalmPilot users access to the information, and also feed the data to a different supply chain application.
If the promise of the service-oriented architecture takes root, businesses will gain more flexibility when they need to change computing systems, analysts said.
"SOA clarifies design, makes it easier for large or geographically distributed development teams to work together, and enables software reuse because modules can be reconfigured and tailored in new ways to meet new purposes," Gartner analyst Roy Schulte noted in a December research report.
