Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is a way of designing, developing, deploying, and managing enterprise systems when business needs and technical solutions are closely aligned. SOA-based systems can be so large and complex, so the role of documentation as a means of conveying information about them is very important. Unfortunately, there is currently little concrete guidance available on how to do so effectively. This workshop will explore the current state-of-the-art and state-of-the-practice in documenting SOA-based systems. The goal is to learn from past experience in documenting other software-intensive systems, including the use of graphical documentation techniques relying on the Unified Modeling Language (UML), but taking into account the unique features and challenges inherent in SOA-based systems (e.g., properly documenting issues related to governance). This workshop is the 7th in a series of events exploring graphical documentation in the context of aiding system understanding.
