A Semantic Service Oriented Architecture (SSOA) is an architecture that allows for scalable and controlled Enterprise Application Integration solutions.[http://www.wsmx.org/papers/publications/SSOA.pdf Exposing Semantic Web Service principles in SOA to solve EAI scenarios]
SSOA describes an approach to enterprise-scale IT infrastructure. It leverages rich, machine-interpretable descriptions of data, services, and processes to enable software agents to autonomously interact to perform critical mission functions. SSOA is technically founded on three notions:
- The principles of Service-oriented architecture (SOA);
- Standard Based Design (SBD); and
- Semantics-based computing.
SSOA combines and implements these computer science concepts into a robust, extensible architecture capable of enabling complex, powerful functions.[http://www.semsoa.com/html/papers/SSOA_WhitePaper_short.html Semantic Service Oriented Architecture: White Paper Overview]
Applications
In the health care industry, SSOA of HL7 has long been implemented{{Citation needed|date=June 2009}}. Other protocols include LOINC, PHIN, and HIPAA related standards. There is a series of SSOA-related ISO standards published for financial services, which can be found at the ISO's website{{cite web
