Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA for short) have for many years represented an important paradigm
for the structuring and use of IT functionality in distributed software solutions that are often heterogeneous in terms of implementation
. Due to current technological developments
in the area of the so-called "Internet of Things", with an increasing networking of
physical and virtual objects, service-oriented software architecture models can play a
central role in the efficient development of digital services for everyday life
and thus also form an important information technology basis for social innovations.
Building on the fundamentals of SOA and a brief presentation of current reference architecture models
for the "Internet of Things", the advantages of service-oriented software architecture models
for the development of distributed IT systems are presented using the example of the field of "age-appropriate
assistance systems" and concretized using selected application examples.
