Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a business-centric IT architectural approach that supports integrating your business as linked, repeatable business tasks, or services. SOA helps users build composite applications, which are applications that draw upon functionality from multiple sources within and beyond the enterprise to support horizontal business processes.
SOA Governance is designed to enable organizations to realize the full potential of SOA. It addresses issues that, if left unattended, may be inhibitors to gaining the flexibility and time-to-market benefits associated with SOA. Effective governance is more than just technology. It calls for a lifecycle approach which integrates an organization's people, processes, SOA Governance information and assets.
The SOA governance environment has two main components – development and monitoring of the SOA governance process and Service Lifecycle Management using the governance process.
There are four phases to the SOA governance framework for developing and monitoring governance processes:
In the Plan phase, the overall business and IT requirements are understood and    documented.
In the Define phase, the SOA governance approach is established based on corporate,    enterprise and IT governance environments.
In the Deploy phase, governance mechanisms are put into place, the organization is    educated,and governance policies are deployed.
In the Measure phase, policy compliance and effectiveness are monitored to see if    governance changes need to be made.
Some of the key aspects in an SOA environment are:
The distributed, cross-boundary nature of services and access to them presents new security    risks that need to be managed.
The rapid deployment and loose coupling of services along with their virtualized application    flows present new complexities in key processes that need to be managed.
The need to effectively handle the performance and prioritization of virtualized services while    efficiently utilizing available resources.
The need to manage identities and access control across multiple applications, platforms,    business partners and business entities.
The need for an end-to-end security architecture that can be deployed and integrated with    existing, disparate security models already deployed in the enterprise.
The need to consistently enforce security policies across the environment.
