Περίληψη

With an increasing amount of companies engaging the Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) paradigm, there has been a focus of attention on the business value which such projects may offer.Research in this direction however has been lagging, with studies focusing in their majority on technology-oriented aspects of SOA.This paper attempts to aggregate findings on factors that enable strategic alignment and observations that have been found to positively impact the business value of SOA projects.Our analysis is based on a meta-study of relevant academic literature Findings suggest that unlike traditional Information Technology (IT) projects, SOA implementations require focus on three additional domains; an appropriate Infrastructure to support the development and deployment of SOA projects, an explicitly defined SOA Governance plan, as well as the Organizational Culture to support it.With the aid of a focus group consisting of nine expert domains, we then categorize the above factors into the following four levels of alignment; organizational, project, individual/cognitive and system.
