What is SOA?

Designing a system where each system component provides access to its computational or business resources as a service to other components

SOA Concept

• Decouple three layers:– Application– Services/business rules, – Data

• Why: Increase reusability and reduce redundancies to shorten development of applications

What is the Vision for the

Next Generation of PACTS?

A collection of applications for probation & pretrial services offices that takes advantage of multiple data sources and promotes court

application development.

PACTS Gen3 Architecture (Structure)

• Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)– Three tiers

• Applications• Services (Process Flows/Business Rules/Logic)• Database

– Allows applications to share data and use the same business rules (logic). Applications can be written in any language (e.g., Java, .net)

PACTS Gen3 Architecture (Structure)
