In this chapter, we discussed the issues that gave rise to SOA, described its main principles, and explained how to make our standard organization in an SOA organization. In order to achieve this aim, we named the WSO2 product we need as WSO2 EI. Finally, we learned how to install, configure, and start it up.
In the next chapter, we will learn how to create the artifacts that will be deployed in WSO2 EI. These artifacts are packaged in so-called carbon files, which are generated by the WSO2 EI IDE, named WSO2 Tooling.
