Integration issues are a major concern for organizations of all types. Existing infrastructures must be retained, yet in order to meet the demands of today’s business issues a consistent architecture is required that maximizes reuse and supports the development of new initiatives. Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) are rapidly becoming the backbone of the modern enterprise. An SOA can increase the speed of business changes, improve business efficiency and performance, and protect the privacy and security of critical information assets. A key factor underpinning a successful SOA is a common enterprise-wide description of the business concepts and processes that are of interest to your organization. Without this common language, any attempt to support a consistent and flexible architecture will more than likely fail. IBM’s Industry Models provide this common language. The models support a complete and unambiguous description of the business services required to support the enterprise. IBM’s Industry Models enable the efficient and accurate gathering of requirements and guarantees the consistency of definitions with a single integration effort or across multiple projects.
