Training: SOA Governance

A Service Orientated Archticeture isn't a pure aggregation of Webservices. In order that you can speak about a SOA, the deployment, the working process and the maintenance have to manage from services. SOA Governance covers the whole lifetime cycle of the services and allocates the instruments to manage a SOA. This training course acts upon the introduction and the permanent fulfillment of SOA Governance. The course focuses on the Standards not on the SOA products.
