Service-Oriented Architecture Registry (SOA Registry)

Definition - What does Service-Oriented Architecture Registry (SOA Registry) mean?

A service-oriented architecture registry (SOA registry) is a resource that sets access rights for data that is necessary for service-oriented architecture projects. An SOA registry allows service providers to discover and communicate with consumers efficiently, creating a link between service providers and service customers.

The registry is an information catalog that is constantly updated with information about the different services in a service-oriented architecture project. The target goal of an SOA registry is to provide fast, easy access to communication, and to operate among different applications with limited human intervention.
