Service Level Agreement (SLA) is that part of a service contract in which a certain level of service is agreed. A SLA is therefore NOT a type of service contract, but a part of a service contract. A service contract can contain zero, one or more SLA's. A contract containing SLA's is usually referred to as a performance contract. SLA's are becoming more and more popular. They are used extensively for provision of IT services, but also in other fields the popularity of SLA's is growing |

More and more organizations are looking to service-oriented architecture (SOA) as the basis of their future computer architecture. Recognizing that legacy application design and implementation approaches have led to applications that are costly to operate and maintain, hard to change, and rely on a dwindling set of skills, organizations are hoping that SOA provides a key component of the answer to these problems.
At the same time organizations are asking three important questions:
1) Since I hear different things, what exactly is SOA, anyway?
2) If I use it, how is it going to help my organization eliminate cost, increase agility, deal with dwindling legacy skill sets, and address compliance?
3) Given that it has value, how do I get there?
This white paper, part of the Oracle IT Modernization Series, addresses all three of these questions.

These days, there is tremendous pressure on organizations to develop, integrate and deploy enterprise Web applications at an almost breakneck pace. As a result, many go live and deliver unsatisfactory results to internal and external end-users. For internal users, this means lost productivity and frustration. For external users, frustration quickly leads to lost business.

"Time is money. You can't do business if you can't access your applications. I won't settle for anything less than 99.99% application availability." Steven Sommer, veteran CIO/CTO There is no aspect more critical to a business than the ability of its end users, customers, business partners and suppliers to have high availability access the corporate applications. If applications are unavailable, business ceases. And corporations know it.

When properly architected and executed, Data Services can provide the missing link that unifies conventional data systems with the emerging SOA paradigm. By offering a decoupled data facade and an easily virtualized API, Data Services can give SOA the opportunity to establish system control without always forcing enterprise data through an inefficient XML layer.

Companies are learning how to run their data centers more efficiently using less hardware, less software and less IT resources. These companies are turning to a new concept called application grid, an infrastructure layer beneath the application layer that pools and dynamically provisions the resources on which those applications run. Application grid brings the same type of efficiency, scalability, and quality of service to the application layer that database clusters brings to the database layer. With an application grid you get greater efficiency, exceptional agility, and superior quality of service.

Technology barriers have prevented enterprises from adopting Java-based approaches for mission critical applications with extreme and predictable computing needs. However, recent advances throughout the entire Java stack have overcome these barriers to position Java to power the next generation of enterprise computing. Customers can now reap the benefits of a standard Java-based infrastructure, including higher developer productivity, fewer defects, a rock-solid proven kernel, and adherence to standards.
Read this free white paper to learn how you can achieve:
· Extreme and predictable performance with Java
· Real-time, real-world memory leak detection and application performance analysis
· Increased Enterprise performance, manageability and simplicity

Over the last few years, BPM has seen rapid growth because it succeeds where earlier approaches have failed -- uniting business strategists and technologists together with a shared set of tools to accomplish common goals. The future promises even more explosive growth as BPM products continue to mature, early success stories are shared, and enterprise-class vendors bring stability and scale to the market.

White paper exploring best practices for SOA. There is no question that the successful implementation of Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) relies on a careful and holistic approach to business planning. One of the most important tools in the evaluation, purchase, and ongoing use of SOA is the body of best practices that vendors,
consultants, and customers have compiled. The promise of business agility, improved customer service, and competitive advantage with SOA is real. What varies most is the time, cost, and ease of SOA implementation. By learning from the experiences of those organizations that have been through the process and looking at the standard best practices of large-scale technology implementations, success can come earlier and more dramatically.
