Iterative development consists of a series of tiny projects. It has become the foundation of multiple agile methodologies.

The oldest and the best known methodology is the agile methodology, a sequence of phases in which the output of each phase becomes the input for the next.

SOA promotes a scalable and flexible enterprise architecture that can implement new or reuse existing MIS components, creating connections among disparate applications and systems.

Corrective maintenance makes system changes to reduce the chance of future system failure.

What is a service-oriented architecture?

In a Gantt chart, tasks are listed ________ and the project’s time frame is listed ________.

What is created that highlights how to use the system and how to troubleshoot issues or problems?

Which phase takes all the detailed design documents from the design phase and transforms them into the actual system?

Gate two of the rational unified process (RUP) methodology is elaboration and this phase expands on the agreed-upon details of the system, including the ability to provide an architecture to support and build it.

It is important to understand that SOA is not a concrete architecture; it is thought that leads to a concrete architecture. It might be described as a style, paradigm, concept, perspective, philosophy, or representation. That is, SOA is an approach, a way of thinking, a value system that leads to decisions that design a concrete architecture allowing enterprises to plug in new services or upgrade existing services in a granular approach.
