Our SOA business and technical line professionals are focused on one thing: results. It's not about the technology; it's about choosing the right tools, methods, and processes that deliver the results our clients are looking for and doing it in a predictable, cost-effective manner.

Avantia understands that SOA is not a platform or process, but rather a way to enable businesses to be more agile, to deliver new capabilities quickly, and to leverage existing investments.  SOA allows businesses to react to rapidly changing landscapes and stay ahead of the curve.

Our SOA experts employ their years of experience and understanding to employ a common-sense approach to implementing SOA.  We leverage industry standards, best practices,  to ensure that your SOA practice achieves the success that is desired.  <TBD>

The Avantia SOA approach employs a comprehensive tool-kit that includes all the necessary components: methods, models, techniques, and best practices needed for successful SOA-based outcomes. Whether your needs require a quick-start to a new project or to improve upon an iniatitive already underway, the Avantia SOA tool-kit contains all the reusable utilities to expedite the project, mitigate "project fatigue," and increase project confidence.

Avantia SOA follows this generally accepted framework:

• Design for change rather than static application development
• Things fit together nicely, but are not "hammered in place"
• Provides for service delivery rather than linked silos
• Presents a process-oriented model versus point-specific functions
• Provides for an iterative development life cycle rather than a waterfall approach
• Is focused on a business-centered approach, not a cost center model
• It's all about the architecture versus using middleware as digital glue
• Leverages a "best fit" technology model versus a one-technology-fits-all approach
