One of the business benefits organizations strive to achieve by implementing a Service-Oriented Architecture, or utilizing Web Services, is the opportunity to reuse business components. Asset reuse is one of the core drivers of the SOA or Web Service ROI calculation. Although leveraging the service concept provides an avenue for application consolidation and reuse, these same efficiencies also introduce a distinct level of business risk. In spite of the technical risks involved, reusable components are core to the SOA vision. In order to fully reap the benefits of SOA and Web services, it is critical that companies find an efficient and robust solution that mitigates risk, increases trust, and ultimately promotes reuse. However, in order to promote trust in the business components that are to be reused, policies that determine how the services are handled must be followed and enforced.

The ability to attain the benefits of service orientation is largely constrained by the ability to manage the various SOA domains: security, management, registry, development, orchestration/composite services, and enablement/integration. The lack of a solid SOA governance strategy throughout the entire service lifecycle can result in an inconsistent and uncontrollable IT infrastructure that compromises the benefits of SOA. This SOA governance strategy is just the first step. A governance strategy without the capability to enforce the prescribed policies is destined for failure.
In order to achieve the forecasted benefits of SOA, including reuse, you must achieve trust. Trust that your services are capable of supporting defined business objectives. Trust that your services are scalable to meet the demands of business partners. Trust that your services are robust and interoperable. Building this trust means that the SOA governance strategy is enforced, and this begins in design and is extraordinarily critical in development.
