U.S. Department of Defense’s Defense Information Systems Agency: Service Oriented Architecture II

Case Study: Service Oriented Architecture

Problem: The U.S. Department of Defense’s Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Net-Centric Enterprise Services (NCES) program provides service oriented architecture (SOA) infrastructure and common SOA services to the at-large DoD community. Security, a common SOA service, needed to get integrated into the NCES foundation.

Solution: Merlin International® designed and integrated an appliance-based implementation of the NCES SOA security service into the NCES foundation.

Results: Now that application developers may obtain security services as a shared resource, they may focus their full attention on composing complex functionality that supports their unique missions.
