IBM has come up with a new service offering to help customers better connect their business goals with their technical resources.
Known as Service Oriented Modeling and Architecture, or SOMA, the new service, announced Wednesday, will be a service offering from IBM Global Services (IGS) to help enterprise customers "bridge the gap between business and technology," said Michael Liebow, vice president of Web services at IGS in Armonk, N.Y.
Essentially, through SOMA IBM will help customers implement service-oriented architectures that can transform enterprises to on-demand businesses, Liebow said. An SOA is basically a collection of services that communicate with and collaborate with each other.
