Getting Business Value from SOA. Now.

You’ve embarked on Web services and SOA initiatives for one or more of the following reasons -- improved IT and business agility, easier application integration, better use of existing technology investments, or more efficient use of limited resources. In other words, you want to create greater business value faster, more efficiently, and at a lower cost. The best way to achieve those goals is to build new integrated solutions, known as composite applications, using the services within your SOA. That’s what Above All Software enables. Simply put, there is no better choice to help you deliver instant business value from your SOA.

The SOA Challenge.

As you implement SOA solutions, moving from pilots to real-world service-oriented integration and applications, you will face new challenges. These include:

	Redundant and inconsistent definitions of business functionality and information across applications
	Inability to map and relate complementary functionality and information across applications
	Misalignment of functionality and information to new and emerging business needs

Moreover, to get the most value from SOA requires "right-sized" business services aligned to business needs. It requires easy reuse of those services across the organization in rapidly created, new integrated solutions. And it requires that solutions be assembled, not coded, so that they are fast and flexible enough to accommodate new requirements as fast as they arise.

The Above All Solution.

The only way to support that level of flexibility is through increased simplicity. Built from the ground up to leverage Web services and service-oriented architectures, the Above All Composite Application Platform helps you more easily take advantage of your existing investments. It simplifies how they can participate in new integrated solutions and the steps required to deliver composite applications. The result is an IT organization on the move and ahead of the curve, not one struggling to keep up with the needs of the business.
