SOA en-us Copyright 2006-2009, SOA Systems Inc. http://www.soamag.com/I33/1009-4.asp In part I of the article, I have described the first four steps of an eight-step SOA development methodology with a focus on architecture, design and abstract thought process. In part II, I will continue to discuss the last four steps concentrating on Web service development, deployment, tests and management. I will then benchmark the case study against industry SOA principles, summarize lessons learned from this real world project and finally share with readers about my considerations for future SOA engagement and practices. After reading both parts, readers should have a complete understanding about SOA strategies, tactics and concrete implementations. SOA http://www.soamag.com/contributors/bio-zhong.asp#When:06.11.09 http://www.soamag.com/I32/0909-1.asp In this article I will present a step-by-step service-oriented solution development methodology and then describe how it is being used for the successful implementation of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) at a federal agency to integrate its financial systems with E-Gov Travel Services. I will discuss major service components constructed, service-oriented processes followed, business benefits gained, best practices used, and lessons learned. After reading the article, readers should have a good understanding of how SOA is used in real world situations to integrate large scale, highly valued, and mission critical information systems within and across enterprise boundaries.
