Service-oriented architecture (SOA) is an IT architecture pattern. The pattern is from the field of distributed systems and helps to structure and use the services of IT systems. SOA is thus a method of encapsulating existing IT components such as databases, servers and websites into services and then coordinating them in such a way that their services can be combined into higher-level services. In addition, these can be made available to other organisational departments or customers.
