The communications industry has much to gain from SOA. In face of deregulation, service proliferation and the fragmentation of IT, highly adaptive information systems are no longer just a competitive advantage—they are necessary to survive in the dynamic telecommunications industry.

Standard-based service-oriented systems offer an adaptive platform that’s ideally suited for the diversity found in most carrier environments. A legacy of point solutions have led to IT infrastructures that lack the flexibility necessary to respond to ever-narrowing windows of market opportunity and ongoing industry consolidation. To thrive in this field, telecommunications companies are challenged to develop and deploy new revenue-generating services to grow and support customer retention.

SOA offers a cost-effective and highly flexible platform for integrating legacy systems, collaborating with partners and customers, and quickly driving new business initiatives. Yet challenges remain. The business-critical role of information systems in this industry mandate high service levels and minimal downtime. To deliver value, service-based applications must be highly reliable and secure.
