# SOA

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/providers/soa/  
**APIs profiled:** 1

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is an architectural style for building software applications as a collection of loosely coupled, interoperable services. Each service encapsulates a specific business capability and communicates with others through well-defined interfaces, commonly using SOAP, REST, or messaging protocols. SOA enables enterprise integration, reusability, and flexibility across heterogeneous systems.
