As SOA converges with B2B,

services will become the main

interaction points between

business partners, and policies

will externalize contextual as

well as contractual conditions

such as security, availability,

guaranteed response times,

quality of service and more

By enabling IT and the business

to achieve full visibility into

B2B activities, SOA-enabledintegration lowers operations

costs, increases partner

satisfaction by enabling more

efcient and accurate interac-

tions and creates opportunities

for new business initiatives.

Being able to rely on a single

central solution is of crucial

importance to us when it

comes to data and processgovernance. It guarantees

standardized management for

all of our data ows.
