Services might aggregate information and data retrieved from other services
or create workflows of services to satisfy the request of a given service
consumer. This practice is known as service orchestration Another important
interaction pattern is service choreography, which is the coordinated
interaction of services without a single point of control.
Components of SOA:
data center
At its simplest, a data center is a physical facility that organizations use to
house their critical applications and data. A data center's design is based on a
network of computing and storage resources that enable the delivery of shared
applications and data. The key components of a data center design include
routers, switches, firewalls, storage systems, servers, and application-delivery
controllers.
Security procedures
The majority of companies which implemented cloud solutions and services do
not have security procedures in place. Also, they lack measures to approve or
evaluate cloud applications. When adopting the BYOD trend for example,
organizations needed these security procedures more than ever. General data
security trainings, multiple levels of security, rigorous procedures to use one’s
own device and to transfer or copy data are some of the options available to
protect data in organizations. The bottom line is that security procedures must
be established according to every company’s objectives and work flow.
