Evaluating SOA Governance

Ensuring the Business Outcomes of SOA Initiatives (ebizQ)
Governing SOA is a lot like governing the Federal Reserve -- executives need to support a corporation's ability to use IT resources to the max with minimum bureaucracy, but in a manner that mitigates risk. Thus, the key elements of SOA governance must include visibility, information, policy, contract, and lifecycle management. Simply put, the costs of an ungoverned SOA are too high.

One of the best ways to see how your own governance initiative stacks up is to compare it to the rest of the industry. This webinar discusses a 2008 survey that looked at how companies were applying SOA governance, and what types of initiatives worked

Rethinking SOA Governance (BEA)
In addition to background information on SOA, this set of guidelines for governance evaluation offers a list of suggested solution drivers for determining whether a solution is working and functioning well. Some suggested points to consider include whether the solution contains a governance information model, separates views of a service by domain, and supports all core SOA characteristics.
