Accenture Public Service PlatformThe promise of Service-Oriented Architecture delivered today
As an IT leader in public service, you understand the need for process-centric IT that improves performance by better aligning business with technology. You want the agility to modify your business processes without the cost of changing the underlying technology. You recognize the promise of service-oriented architecture (SOA) to help you increase your organizations effectiveness, lower total cost of ownership, and reuse existing IT investments. Yet, achieving this promise is not as easy as just buying one of the many SOA middleware suites on the market. When you open the box, you will find there is some assembly required. Not only that, the pieces may not all fit together in your unique IT environment as promised. A key challenge slowing the adoption of SOA is that the technology is constantly evolving. While there is a base set of standards to work from, the tools, language capabilities, execution platforms, and general operability of process- centric IT remain something of a moving target. Shortly after purchasing a product, you may learn about an upcoming update that will affect your implementation.
