Abstract
Business-driven development is an approach that focuses on automating the path from business understanding to IT solution. IBM’s experiences with customers taking a business-driven approach to develop services-oriented solutions are highlighting a number of best practices that are important to share and discuss. This paper focuses on how companies adopting a service-oriented approach are assembling the appropriate environment to be successful. The paper identifies three design techniques for SOA and describes when each of them can be used in practice, depending on the business and IT drivers and the organization’s maturity. We then highlight how to use structured enterprise models together with the tools and methods to automate the design of service-oriented solutions. These scenarios and examples are playing an important role in the development of future method content and tooling requirements for IBM Rational tools.
