Service-oriented analysis and design

Service Oriented Analysis and Design (SOAD) is an approach to software modeling and development specially designed for SOA applications. It builds upon early development processes, including OOAD and BPM. All of these design approaches promote information hiding, abstraction, and separation of concerns. SOAD adds innovations for service repositories, service orchestration, and the ESB.

SOAD helps design, build, aggregate, and deploy applications as Web Services, built with SOAP, WSDL and UDDI technologies.
