SOA Manifesto Paper

According to the business dictionary, a legacy system is an: “Obsolete computer system that may still be in use because its data cannot be changed to newer or standard formats, or its application programs cannot be upgraded” (Business Dictionary , 2017). Now, that we know what a legacy system is how can it limit the ability of an organization to adopt a new SOA. The current organization, which I work at just recently replaced a legacy system.

Thus, the organization will be able to be a leading developer in the area which it specializes in because it allowed diversity to grow, which leads to better cohesion and
