Service-Oriented Architecture has the potential to enable a much higher degree of business agility by transforming enterprise IT based on a service-driven delivery model. Over the past two decades, applications and their supporting infrastructures have become exceedingly complex. The typical enterprise devotes almost two-third of its applications budget in maintaining existing systems largely due to the cost factor.
