Organizat ions' dependence on custom enterprise software and web applications from independent software developers and software companies create a lot of problems such as integration, interoperability, security, and system maintenance.This paper seeks to provide a better approach by using Web services standards in dealing with the comp lexity of mu ltip le inco mpatible applicat ions that were written in different programming languages on multiple computers and also making it possible for organizations to add a new layer of abstraction that is open, standards-based, and easy to integrate with any new or existing system.The combination of Serv ice Oriented Architecture and Web services will be used to provide a rapid integration solution that will quickly and easily align In formation Technology investments and corporate strategies by focusing on shared data and reusable services rather than proprietary integration products.
