Abstract: A framework (referred to herein as Application Integration Architecture, or AIA) that formalizes and orchestrates activities in an SOA development lifecycle. In one set of embodiments, AIA can capture development-related information in a shared data store and cause the information to flow in an automated or semi-automated manner from one lifecycle phase to the next as the lifecycle progresses. This information flow can, in turn, facilitate automations at each lifecycle phase for the responsible stakeholders (e.g., solution architects, developers, installation developers, etc.), thereby enforcing SOA best practices, enhancing development productivity, and ensuring the quality of the final SOA deliverables.

Abstract: A facility for displaying a product definition is described. The facility retrieves a body of product information in a first form that is compatible with a first software package. The facility transforms the product information in the first form into product information in a second form that is distinct from the first form. The facility then transforms the product information in the second form into product information in a third form that is compatible with the second software package and distinct from the first and second forms. Using the product information in the third form, the facility generates a product display using the second software package.
