1. Modularity: SOA allows businesses to develop applications or services as independent modules, making it easier to maintain and reuse them for other applications.
2. Flexibility: The ability to change services and applications with less impact, as services are offered over the Internet or exposed as APIs.
3. Scalability: SOA-based systems are more scalable than traditional applications, as services can be added or removed as required, making it possible to manage traffic spikes or sudden increases in demand.
4. Interoperability: SOA is technology-neutral, making it possible for services to communicate with each other, regardless of the technology or platform used.
5. Reusability: Services can be reused across applications, reducing development time and costs.
6. Agility: SOA supports agile development methodologies, allowing businesses to respond quickly to customer demands, technological changes, or market trends.
7. Cost efficiency: SOA-based systems are cost-effective, as businesses can reuse existing services or purchase services from third-party providers, reducing development and maintenance costs.
