Summary:Insurance professionals repeatedly hear from media, conference presenters and their own IT colleagues that they need to act now to take advantage of the great benefits available with a service-oriented architecture (SOA). The value of an SOA approach lies at the intersection of insurance professionals' business concerns and their company's software architecture. Managing complex collection of data and delivering the right information to the right people at the right time is exactly the sort of business challenge an SOA-based approach can help. With an SOA-based approach, insurance professionals gain simplified access to the data they need in order to do their jobs. An SOA approach has the potential to bring insurers great value in terms of efficiency and productivity. With SOA-enabled business applications, insurance companies of all sizes can enhance data access to drive timely decision-making for their employees and customers.
