SOA Governance
Customers, Just the facts, Locuz - SOI & SOM, Locuz way - SIM/CMDB/IDM, Trends No Comments »Identity Management is the corner stone of Governance and more so in the case of SOA.
SOA interactions impose tremendous complexity on being able to make each interaction accountable from user access standpoint and unlike Identity in monolith applications; Identity for each interaction will have to be brokered effectively.
It may be useful to plan and perhaps deploy Identity Management early in the cycle of SOA readiness and more importantly the SOA blueprint should capture protection in the form of accountability for both service consumer and provider – just like the way it does for Interoperability, service discoverability and predictability of service performance.
I thought this may be a useful discussion for many CIO’s. During several meetings around Governance this point emerged as one very important subject. I spoke on similar lines at an IDC event in Doha because of the special interest expressed by attending CIO’s.
Please post your comments and thoughts, we could all learn from experiences of many.
