SOA Design Principles

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) design principles focus on creating flexible, reusable software components called services, which interact over a network. Key principles include modularity (breaking tasks into independent services), discoverability (services are easy to find), interoperability (services work across different systems), loose coupling (services are only minimally dependent on each other), and standardization (using common protocols). These principles enable organizations to build adaptable, scalable systems that can easily evolve by combining and reusing services, reducing complexity, increasing efficiency, and facilitating smoother integration across diverse technology platforms.
