Service Oriented ArchitectureService Oriented Architecture

Riptide has extensive experience with Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) and their evolution from numerous legacy technologies associated with Object Oriented Programming and Design, three tier architectures, middleware (including JBoss, IBM Websphere, and BEA Web Logic). The promise of SOA is that it can reduce cost, increase business agility, and decrease time to market. Many businesses are investing heavily in SOA and finding the promise going unfulfilled. Riptide can help guarantee that your SOA is designed correctly to succeed and save you money. Riptide has numerous SOA certified professionals on staff and maintains continuous education in this technology area to guarantee our customers have access to the latest and greatest software components and designs to guarantee your projects success

Riptide never makes the mistake of trying to use technology to solve people and process problems, instead we apply technology where appropriate based upon our customers needs. Service Oriented Architecture is about more than technology. SOA is a business philosophy that when implemented properly begins with Business Process Management (BPM). BPM focuses on understanding how work gets done. When an organization clearly understands how work gets done then and only then can it effectively define the business services required to operate efficiently. The business services become the foundation of the technology services that empower your organization to do more.
