Policy Enforcement for Runtime Service Governance

Trends such as Service-oriented Architecture (SOA), Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), and Web 2.0 are rapidly driving the usage of Web services within enterprise organizations. Service governance solutions can help enterprises with these requirements by providing them with all the necessary visibility and control.


This paper focuses on the issue of policy enforcement for runtime governance. It discusses the core requirements for an effective policy enforcement solution and describes additional qualitative considerations that should be addressed when evaluating a prospective solution. The paper explains why a noninvasive, network-based implementation is superior and demonstrates how Sonoa ServiceNet offers high-performance, scalable, and reliable policy enforcement.
