OASIS SOA Reference Model

The OASIS SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) Reference Model is a standard framework that organizes how different software components, called services, communicate and work together within an IT environment. It defines common terminology, concepts, and guidelines to ensure interoperability and reuse across systems. Essentially, it provides a blueprint for designing and integrating services in a flexible, scalable way, enabling businesses to build and maintain complex applications more efficiently while promoting consistency and clarity in how services interact.
