2. Are industry (vertical) standards being used either directly or, to provide guidance.

PESC is the Post Secondary Education Standards Council (http://www.pesc.org). Once the keepers of key EDI standards (like the T130), PESC now publishes a number of standards as XML schemas:

  1. The admission application
  2. The high School transcript
  3. The college transcript

PESC also acts as a standards broker and is facilitating the convergence of Kuali Student service contracts with existing PESC standards. See Letter of Intent.

6. SOA styles

Message styles

SOAP, REST and POX messages have different structures and syntax. However, the differences goes much deeper than that and affect the whole design of a system. REST builds on the fundamental concepts of HTTP and there are essentially two methods (GET and PUT). SOAP, by contrast, grew out earlier remote object technologies (such as CORBA and DCOM) and so it attempts to model remote object interactions. You can specify the equivalent of method names and input and output parameters.

7. Technologies

  1. Is a commercial "turnkey" SOA solution being used:
    1. Oracle fusion
    2. IBM websphere
  2. Are any open source or open source plus support solutions being used:
    1. MuleSoft
    2. WSO2
    3. Fuse
    4. Apache ServiceMix
  3. Has SOA led you to re-engineer your infrastructure? For example, if your data warehouse is the current hub of data exchange, does SOA change this?

8. Individual SOA projects and initiatives:
