AZORAâ„¢ SOA Studio is the first integrated services environment that truly supports building adaptable business driven solutions based on services-oriented architectures. The resulting applications allow businesses to use their infrastructure to their own benefit, instead of the infrastructure constraining the business processes.

AZORAâ„¢ SOA Studio is an end-to-end, vendor neutral integrated services environment. It provides project teams the tools and techniques they need to create flexible, agile solutions in response to business requirements.

Design

Beginning with the business process, teams use AZORA’s proven SOA architecture, SORA™, to visually design service based solutions. The business requirements discovered as the business processes are analyzed become the basis for services-based solution. Following AZORA™ Advance, an SOA specific development process, the solutions are produced in less time, with significantly less rework.

 

Visualize

Visual design can be an expedient and accurate way to create designs – if it is tailored specifically to the development of SOA solutions. AZORA™ SOA Studio’s visual modeling capabilities were built to meet the unique needs of developing SOA solutions. Because the set of diagrams and tools available is restricted to those that facilitate SOA development, team members remain focused on solving the business problems as they model.

 

Create

Following AZORAâ„¢ Advance, an SOA specific development process, the solutions are produced in less time, with significantly less rework. Teams reuse existing business and application services and create new ones as necessary, independent of the target platforms.

 

Implement

Because the solutions created with AZORAâ„¢ SOA Studio are developed independently of any specific platform, they can be transformed into services that run on numerous platforms. This is accomplished with AZORAâ„¢ SOA Studio Add-on Components called Platform Builders. Each Platform Builder transforms the application solution models into the required data transformations, interface files, and service files for the target platforms.
