Summary

Abstract

Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is a new technology paradigm that addresses how applications are architected, developed, serviced, consumed, and managed. It is not a technology but a coordinated use of existing technologies in a standards-based environment that promises reusability, speed of development, and greater flexibility. SOA is touted as the panacea for many problems plaguing the brokerage industry, but some questions remain unanswered about the potential or value from implementation. This Research Note introduces SOA for the brokerage business, describes its potential, and examines its implications for the way brokerage firms manage themselves and make decisions.
