What is Oracle SOA Suite?

Oracle SOA Suite is a comprehensive, standards-based software suite to build, deployand manage integration following the concepts of service-oriented architecture (SOA).The components of the suite benefit from consistent tooling, a single deployment andmanagement model, end-to-end security and unified metadata management.Oracle SOA Suite helps businesses lower costs by allowing maximum re-use of existingIT investments and assets, regardless of the environment (OS, application server, etc.)they run in, or the technology they were built upon. Its easy-to-use, re-use focused,unified application development tooling and end-to-end lifecycle management supportfurther reduces development and maintenance cost and complexity.

I would rate the scalability a seven out of ten. It's not much more dynamic, not as dynamic as you may think, like seeing it in the cloud. In order to use it, you need to have the download servers and then scale up your systems. Oracle SOA Suites serves as a middle layer between applications. For example, let's say you have SAP, and we have Salesforce or Oracle ERP system. Users connect to those systems and perform certain activities or transactions on the applications. Now, if any data needs to be synchronized or any integration needs to happen between these applications, we use the Oracle SOA Suite. It acts as the bridge between the applications, not between the users. It's like having endpoints between the applications. Currently, we have 20 endpoints; 20 systems are connected to it, which is great. Oracle SOA Suite is being used daily. We are using it to its maximum potential.
