U.S. Department of Defense’s U.S. Transportation Command: Service Oriented Architecture

Case Study: Service Oriented Architecture

Problem: The U.S. Department of Defense’s U.S. Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) needed to share its information-technology logistics data and capabilities with other DoD entities in a net-centric environment, but it did not have the required service oriented architecture (SOA).

Solution: Merlin International® delivered a complete SOA solution, including service life cycle processes, governance, policy management, registry/repository with ontology, operations, administration and management, and security services.

Results: By having a complete SOA infrastructure, USTRANSCOM is now able to share logistics data and capabilities in a net-centric environment.
