Governance, the implementation and enforcement of business policies, is an essential part of the SOA deployment model. --Design Time Governance is predominantly an information technology function, and typically involves service verification, publication approval, provisioning and testing for conformance and interoperability. --Run Time Governance is an IT operations function and involves monitoring and managing services against Service Level Agreements, managing alerts and notifications and provisioning and scheduling resources for service delivery. --Change Time Governance is a business function, and it involves managing relationships between providers and consumers, configuring Service Delivery Contracts, managing service rollouts and service custody transfers. Contracts are enforced through service intermediaries, such as the Synapse synapse (sĭn`ăps), junction between various signal-transmitter cells, either between two neurons or between a neuron and a muscle or gland. A nerve impulse reaches the synapse through the axon, or transmitting end, of a nerve cell, or neuron. project. These roles and phases of the end-to-end SOA lifecycle What is a SOA Lifecycle?
