These transformations should be recorded and preserved
for future deployment generations, to enable tracking of organizational service-oriented software
assets and to provide return on investment reference records.
SERVICE-ORIENTED BUSINESS INTEGRATION MODELING PRINCIPLES
Modeling the service-oriented business integration relies on two fundamental alignment methods,
each of which employs a different organizational business architecture perspective: structural and
contextual. The integration modeling practice, however, does not require using both perspectives
to produce a business integration diagram. But the structural perspective is mandatory, because
it offers a tangible business entity with which services should be aligned. Exhibit 11.1 illustrates
these two major integration approaches.

INTEGRATION WITH BUSINESS ARCHITECTURE STRUCTURAL PERSPECTIVES. An organizational
business architecture structural perspective pertains to the various business domain formations
that an enterprise may have established throughout the years, and it can also include
future plans and strategies that would influence an enterprise business structure. These are chiefly
variations of layered and tiered business architecture formations (discussed in Chapter 10).
