SOA is designed to break-down monolithic applications, reduce costs and increase IT agility

TIBCO BusinessWorks™ helps organizations meet the challenge of connecting and coordinating all of their corporate assets by providing an integration platform that can also play an integral role in the deployment of an SOA. BusinessWorks can mediate interactions among disparate applications and databases, automate business processes, manage transactions and Web services, handle exceptions, and process events. As an independent integration backbone, it can also abstract the complexity that comes with maintaining different SOA ecosystems, including various brands of Java EE application servers as well as .NET.
