"Today's IT infrastructure requires a higher level of abstraction, integration and alignment to ensure true business agility," said John Loiacono, executive vice president of Sun's software group. "Sun believes that its pragmatic SOA approach offers customers the agility and security needed to meet business challenges head-on, both today as well as in the future. Sun's SOA expertise, Java technology innovation and industry-leading, standards-based products represent the building blocks for a highly flexible and unified enterprise Web services environment."
Unlike other products on the market, the Digital Evolution Service Manager can leverage both IBM and Netegrity' centric audit trails. "Identity is the key to managing SOAs, " says James Kobielus, senior analyst at Burton Group. "In an SOA, every user, service, and application has an identity, and every identity has security, performance, and other policies associated with it. Organizations that deploy SOAs must ensure thorough, based integration of their identity management (IdM) and Web service management (WSM) environments."
