Greenridge Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) Planning Service  

If your organization has not yet taken advantage of service oriented architectures (SOA) yet, it's probably only a matter of time before it will.

Greenridge created an SOA Planning Service to assist your organization in understanding the business and technological impacts of SOA, how to prepare your infrastructure and people for SOA, and how to move forward with your first SOA-based initiatives.

The SOA Planning Service includes the following:

• SOA Education Sessions - a primer for IT and Business people to provide a base level of understanding
• Technology Readiness Assessment - review existing technology architecture and application standards as SOA will need to interoperate with the existing environment. The network infrastructure, server environment, database technology, development language and processes, and desktop environments will be reviewed for fit to various SOA approaches.
• Skills Readiness Assessment - an assessment of the skills inventory of your current staff and the ability of the team to acquire the skills and knowledge required to participate in designing, developing, implementing, and supporting SOA initiatives. 
• Gap Analysis Report - a report outlining the areas that need to be addressed from a people and technology perspective is created and presented.
• Target State SOA Architecture - a vision for the future SOA-based architecture is created.
• SOA Roadmap - the process of moving ahead with the first and subsequent SOA initiatives will be documented and presented to senior IT and Business executives. 

Our consultants are experienced, top-notch professionals offered at very competitive rates. In addition to the SOA Planning, Greenridge can be engaged to work side-by-side with your team to mentor the group through the first SOA initiatives.
