ANALYSIS ENVIRONMENT. The analysis environment facilitates the transformation of a service
from its initial conceptual state to an analysis service for further inspection and categorization.
This process is pursued to encourage discovery and profiling activities of services that may
participate in a service-oriented solution. The analysis environment framework also provides a
platform for analysis modeling, allowing architects, asset portfolio managers, business architects,
business analysts, and developers to conduct sessions that yield an analysis proposition
model.
In addition, the analysis environment management framework supports analysis activities
throughout the service-oriented business integration phase, during which business integration
modeling disciplines are applied. This alignment activity requires the collaboration of business
and IT personnel to identify proper service integration opportunities and to establish a business
integration model that depicts the alignment scheme between services and business domains.
Consider the following analysis environment facilitation activities:
??? Fostering research initiatives that identify analysis modeling and visualization tools.
??? Assisting with asset portfolio analysis to identify service-oriented asset candidates that
can participate in a solution. This activity typically involves portfolio managers, product
managers, business analysts, and architects.
