Abstract
Methods, including service methods, articles of manufacture, systems, articles and programmable devices are provided for managing the evolution of a service-oriented architecture service over a service lifecycle. An implemented SOA service is evaluated with respect to each of a plurality of line-of-business business-scope attributes and to each of a plurality of different line-of-business functionality attributes. Sets are determined of each of the business-scope attributes and different functionality attributes, wherein each attribute of each determined set is applicable to the implemented service as a function of the evaluating. Sets of business attribute-service evolution factors and technical attribute-service evolution factors associated with the respective determined attribute sets are selected, and both of the sets of selected business attribute-service evolution factors and technical attribute-service evolution factors are used to re-factor the implemented service into a mature enterprise service in response to a service revision.
