This 3-day instructor-led course teaches students the design phase of developing a service-oriented solution from an architect's perspective. Students learn service design principles and how to apply the Rational Unified Process service-oriented modeling and architecture (RUP SOMA) methodology to analyze, identify services, and design a service-oriented architecture (SOA) solution. Hands-on exercises throughout the course enable students to apply SOA design techniques and improve their skills.
Though this course emphasizes SOA design concepts, techniques, and best practices, students also work with IBM SOA Foundation products that may be used to gather requirements, identify services, model business processes, and realize SOA solutions.
