Integrated SOA deployment and management system and method for software services

摘要

A method and appertaining system provide that an integrated Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) repository stores functional and non-functional requirements and associated data and results of associated with software services across the software lifecycle, thereby permitting access at a common point or in a common way by a user to all relevant information about the software service at least during the development, testing, and run-time stages of the software service. Thus, all design documents, testing requirements and results, and run-time policies and contracts can be provided in a common location to facilitate development in the service oriented architecture.
