SOA, Service Oriented Architecture

Businesses today want to take advantage of distributed computing in order to better utilize resources in their data centers. The challenge is keeping all the current systems talking to each other without expensive enterprise application integration projects. A service-oriented architecture (SOA) allows you to streamline communication while still using all your current applications. An SOA is a collection of shared, reusable services that function independently of the development platform and can interact whether they have been developed in a Linux or Windows environment.

MarkLogic Server on an SOA

Built on SOA architecture, MarkLogic Server allows an enterprise to query, manipulate and render content in a distributed environment. MarkLogic can also be used to build applications that provide SOA “services” for other SOA-based applications to consume, and also as a hub to consume, translate and re-publish other SOA services. As such, MarkLogic provides organizations with an unprecedented ability to integrate, access, use, and reuse their content in multiple ways across multiple channels.

Until recently, companies would receive the economic benefits of installing new technology only after first removing the old technology. With MarkLogic Server, this is no longer necessary. MarkLogic allows organizations to develop content applications that can access any of the services running on the SOA, including legacy applications that utilize an XML wrapper, ensuring that companies can migrate to a modern SOA-based publishing architecture while leveraging the full benefits of their existing platforms.

Get More Value Out Of Your Current Investment

MarkLogic works with a variety of companies and organizations looking to get the most from their SOA by integrating content from different applications, restructuring content into multiple products and increasing new product design.
