How SOA Helpful

Lately, you may have heard about the industry buzz around Service-Oriented Architecture. You may already have SOA initiatives in your company or you may have plans to develop such initiatives.

Miracle Software Systems Inc, a premium IBM partner and an IBM SOA Specialty partner, is launching the Miracle Solutions Pyramid (MSP) with a multi-million dollar investment to meet the challenge of global SOA deployment. Miracle Solutions Pyramid is based on years of Integration & Enterprise Applications Customization expertise gained by Miracle implementing IT Enabled solutions for global 2000 companies.
Miracle Solutions Pyramid offers four layers of services: Business-IT Alignment, Business Process Transformation(BPX), SOA Architectural Services, and SOA Industrialization services. The first three layers will lead to implementation services as the fourth-layer, SOA Industrialization services.

These four service offerings enable customers to reap the business benefits mentioned below:

  • Increased IT efficiencies by aligning IT with business goals

  • Reduced costs &increased revenues by transforming your business processes

  • Increased ROI on existing IT assets

  • Competitive advantage through increased business flexibility and the ability to respond to change

Having worked with companies in most industries, we are confident that we will be able to help your company realize the above business benefits.

We invite you to explore each of these 4-layers of the Miracle Solutions Pyramid

  • Business-IT Alignment :


    IT departments don't exist in a vacuum. They serve the other business units of the organization. However, aligning the goals of the IT organization to those of other units can be a challenge. Using Miracle ’s Business-IT Alignment services, clients in a multitude of industries have aligned their IT initiatives with the business goals, resulting in increased revenue, decreased expenses, increased growth, and achievement of competitive advantage.

  • Business Process Transformation :


    Established businesses in an industry compete with one another based on their business processes and policies. A company with superior business processes can achieve a significant sustainable competitive advantage over its competitors. Therefore, it is imperative that every company periodically look at its business processes to understand whether or not they are in alignment and supporting its business goals. Miracle’s Business Process Transformation service offering will help a company explore, map, and prioritize its inter & intra enterprise business processes and recommend whether the company needs to automate, improve, consolidate or outsource these processes to achieve its business goals.

  • Architectural Services :


    In addition to focusing on optimizing for their business efficiency, forward-thinking CxOs optimize their business for agility. Pursuing new strategies requires an understanding of what the underlying capabilities of the business are, and the vision to see ways those capabilities can be reconfigured into entirely new business processes, supply chains, or distribution channels. Miracle’s Architecture Services are focused on preparing an organization to successfully adopt, architect, and govern their SOA initiatives and enable business agility across the enterprise.Governance helps realize the business benefits of SOA such as business process flexibility and increased reuse of assets, mitigating the business risk. Governance along with SOA provides the enterprises the flexibility, consistency, and trust. Miracle’s Governance Services help assess the company’s existing IT Governance model and help formulate and implement a SOA governance model specification to transform the company into a service-oriented enterprise.

  • Industrialization Services :


    Even though SOA provides many benefits to an enterprise, adopting SOA across the enterprise is an expensive and risky proposition. Miracle’s SOA industrialization services enable an enterprise to quickly and cheaply industrialize their SOA initiatives without compromising on quality through the use of our virtual component factory development model.Miracle’s virtual factory is composed of assembly lines, one for each type of component, such as J2EE component assembly line or .NET assembly line. The appropriate assembly lines appropriate for each enterprise are then assembled into a virtual factory to enable rapid build out of components that underlie the services that the enterprise needs to develop to become a service-oriented enterprise.
