Guide to SOA Governance
Benjamin Moreland, director of IT foundation services in the Property and Casualty group at The Hartford shares guidance on their organizationl designs related to SOA Governance. From the article: SOA planning is committee work, and it often requires that IT architects meet to assess a steady stream of proposals for services to run on the corporate network. 'In P&C, we have a high-level project governance process and an SOA architectural steering committee.' The SOA steering committee includes application architects who assess proposed new services based on such criteria as supportability, reusability and adherence to the company's SOA reference architecture.
