IBM's service-oriented architecture (SOA) plan includes services (IBM Assessments for Service Oriented Architectures; Strategy and Planning for Service Oriented Architecture; and Application Renovation and integration for Service Oriented Architecture; and Component Business Modeling); and products (WebSphere Business Integration Server Foundation and WebSphere Studio Application Developer Integration Edition 5.1). SOAs, which are collections of business processes that deploy reusable standard interfaces to integrate applications inside an organization and with customers, partners, and suppliers, speed development of business processes. Assessments for Service Oriented Architecture assists customers in assessing functional and technical aspects of migration to an SOA, and the Strategy and Planning service identifies customer aims and finishes with a plan for a transition to an SOA. Application Renovation/Integration is for customers that want to expand legacy systems into SOA environments, and Component Business Modeling permits the customer to segment businesses into processes required to run it. An analyst says IBM's solution is changing and is taking a direction toward a more integrated platform based on a sole runtime stack built on Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) and Web services standards. IBM's WebSphere Business Integration Server Foundation features native support for Business Process Execution Language and supports Sun Microsystems' Java Developers Kit 1.4.
