Architect Center: SOAOracle SOA Suite provides a complete set of service infrastructure components for designing, deploying, and managing composite applications. It enables services to be created, managed, and orchestrated into composite applications and business processes. Composites enable you to easily assemble multiple technology components into one SOA composite application.
Oracle SOA Suite plugs into heterogeneous IT infrastructures and enables enterprises to adopt SOA incrementally.
The components of the Suite benefit from common capabilities including a single deployment and management model and tooling, end-to-end security, and unified metadata management.
