Mounting regulation, ever-changing security requirements, market consolidation, and reduced margins have resulted in increased pressure for healthcare organizations to implement more agile business systems while, at the same time, decreasing costs.

To succeed, healthcare providers and payers must improve their ability to collaborate and respond to change. Service-oriented systems enable these companies to more easily leverage and integrate existing systems, automate systems and processes, synchronize data across their organizations and visualize global processes. This standards-based framework allows companies to build composite applications on top of existing infrastructure, integrate systems with industry partners and quickly deliver added value to customers.

However, along with their many benefits, service-oriented systems also bring new governance challenges. Heterogeneous and distributed in nature, SOA-based applications require management capabilities beyond the scope of traditional ESM and NSM solutions. In order to reap the benefits of SOA, healthcare organizations must first implement solutions for ensuring the operational health and security of their loosely-coupled applications.
