Become a certified SOA professional through ACTE instructor-led SOA training and certification course. This comprehensive course is designed by experts keeping in mind that both beginners and intermediate professionals understand each concept easily. In the 30 hours course duration, a candidate will learn and explore all aspects of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) such as create, develop, and debug SOA applications using JDeveloper 12c and much more. If you are looking for an SOA online course, Enroll in ACTE to get hand-on training under the best guidance.
First of all, its really a matter of interest. If you are really a passionate coder or a geek, you may find SOA a bit trade off, because SOA is mostly drag n' drop kinda' stuff and with full of configurations. SOA rarely deals with business logic, it mostly deals with routing or integration logic.
Being a Java developer does not limit you to do anything you want to develop. The control is in your hands. If you are good with Java, you can be good with any programming language of future.
- If you plan to make a career in SOA , make sure you find companies that have a stratergic partnership with Oracle, like gold or platinum. These are the companies that have really understood the value of Fusion technologies and develop solutions using the Fusion product stack, like Oracle ADF (UI), SOA Suite (Middleware) and Java/ PLSQL (Backend).
- SOA Suite is one such product which has proven to adapt to these emerging changes and also follow industry’s standards.
There will be always a good scope for middleware technologies irrespective of the versions. But still, most of the projects are using SOA 11g only. I think in the coming day's projects will get migrated to 12C. So at the time, you can see a lot of scope. Better you need to focus much on 11g to 12c migration methods. It will help you lot.
We are happy and proud to say that we have strong relationship with over 700+ small, mid-sized and MNCs. Many of these companies have openings for SOA . Moreover, we have a very active placement cell that provides 100% placement assistance to our students. The cell also contributes by training students in mock interviews and discussions even after the course completion.
- SOA governance is introduced to administrate services in a service-oriented architecture.
- This governance is required to:
- Create new services when required.
- Update existing services.
- Manage the lifecycle of services.
- Enforce the rules on policies to maintain consistency.
- Monitoring and tuning performance of services.
- Manages user permissions on services.
- The Basic Pre-requisites for learning SOA would be XML, XSD, XSLT, WSDL, XPATH. Which ever the company( Oracle, IBM, Talend , JBoss , Mule, Tibco, Dell Boomi) implementing the SOA on their own would have this as a basic to proceed with development. Specifically for SOAP web service.
- XML(Extensible Markup Language)
- XSL, XSLT(Extensible Stylesheet Language, Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations)
- XPATH((XML Path Language)
- XSD (XML Schema definition)
- WSDL(Web Service Definition Language)
- SOAP((Simple Object Access Protocol)
SOA Suite is a vast area to earn about. The amount of knowledge you earn from SOA suite will be growing by amount of time you dedicate into passionate learning of the technology.
As per the description in the question, I understand that you have no experience in Java programming. So I would recommend you to learn Core Java for starters.
Our course ware is designed to give a hands-on approach to the students in SOA . The course is made up of theoretical classes that teach the basics of each module followed by high-intensity practical sessions reflecting the current challenges and needs of the industry that will demand the students’ time and commitment.
Yes It is worth , You can even prove it. I can give you a hint. Imagine for a second that I can predict future. I can answer your question and post it here so people could read it. Otherwise, if it was only in my head, it could not be really called "prediction". And then, the publication of this prediction is one of the many factors which can change the future. We all shape the future in one or another way with anything we do in our life.
If you already do programming, it’s a little harder, as you will need to learn both the basics and “thinking in SQL”. I found as a hard core C++ programmer, some parts of SQL for me, even after 17 years, are “read only”. I’m really good at analyzing SQL, not as much necessarily as writing it, but that’s because to program Oracle EBusiness Suite you need to know not just the tables, but the setups.
If you want to get a job because “you know Oracle” it won’t work with many companies. Except at my last company we never hired people that had book knowledge. You’d have to have 1–2 years of experience, AND be able to talk about what projects YOU did (not just as a member of a team). Sorry to be blunt, but that’s how consulting companies work. They keep their bench time down to a minimum in order to keep their profits high. They can’t charge a client to train their people.
After having said that, some companies do hire people that don’t have experience.
SOA , offer customers the first true cloud-based Enterprise class back-office platform for full accounting support leveraging the power of the Cloud Computing paradigm. The advantages are both subtle and significant as the market moves rapidly to embrace this compelling new platform. This eBook will highlight the top 10 factors you should consider when evaluating Oracle Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) Cloud Financials verses traditional ERP applications such as Oracle E-Business Suite.

What Does an SOA Developer Do?
Software developers are the creative minds behind computer programs. Some develop the applications that allow people to do specific tasks on a computer or another device. Others develop the underlying systems that run the devices or that control networks.
Duties
Software developers typically do the following:
- Analyse users’ needs and then design, test, and develop software to meet those needs
- Recommend software upgrades for customers’ existing programs and systems
- Design each piece of an application or a system and plan how the pieces will work together
- Create a variety of models and diagrams (such as flowcharts) that instruct programmers how to write software code
- Ensure that a program continues to function normally through software maintenance and testing
- Document every aspect of an application or a system as a reference for future maintenance and upgrades
- Collaborate with other computer specialists to create optimum software
Software developers are in charge of the entire development process for a software program. They may begin by asking how the customer plans to use the software. They must identify the core functionality that users need from software programs. Software developers must also determine user requirements that are unrelated to the functionality of software, such as the level of security and performance needs. They design the program and then give instructions to programmers, who write computer code and test it.
If the program does not work as expected or if testers find it too difficult to use, software developers go back to the design process to fix the problems or improve the program. After the program is released to the customer, a developer may perform upgrades and maintenance.
Developers usually work closely with computer programmers. However, in some companies, developers write code themselves instead of giving instructions to the programmers.
Developers who supervise a software project from the planning stages through implementation sometimes are called information technology (IT) project managers. These workers monitor the project’s progress to ensure that it meets deadlines, standards, and cost targets. IT project managers who plan and direct an organization’s IT department or IT policies are included in the profile on computer and information systems managers.
The following are examples of types of software developers:
Applications software developers design computer applications, such as word processors and games, for consumers. They may create custom software for a specific customer or commercial software to be sold to the general public. Some applications software developers create complex databases for organizations. They also create programs that people use over the Internet and within a company’s intranet.
Systems software developers create the systems that keep computers functioning properly. These could be operating systems for computers that the general public buys or systems built specifically for an organization. Often, systems software developers also build the system’s interface, which is what allows users to interact with the computer. Systems software developers are creating the operating systems that control most of the consumer electronics in use today, including the systems in phones or cars.
How To Become An SOA Developer
Software developers usually have a bachelor’s degree in computer science and strong computer programming skills.
Education
- Software developers usually have a bachelor’s degree, typically in computer science, software engineering, or a related field. A degree in mathematics is also acceptable. Computer science degree programs are the most common, because they tend to cover a broad range of topics.
- Students should focus on classes related to building software in order to better prepare themselves for work in the occupation. For some positions, employers may prefer a master’s degree.
- Although writing code is not their first priority, developers must have a strong background in computer programming. They usually gain this experience in school. Throughout their career, developers must keep up to date on new tools and computer languages.
- Software developers also need skills related to the industry in which they work. Developers working in a bank, for example, should have knowledge of finance so that they can understand a bank’s computing needs.

Other Experience
Many students gain experience in software development by completing an internship at a software company while in college.
Some software developers first work as computer programmers and then are given more responsibility as they gain experience. Eventually, they become developers.
Advancement
- Software developers can advance to become information technology (IT) project managers, also called computer and information systems managers, a position in which they oversee the software development process.
Important Qualities
Analytical skills.Developers must analyze users’ needs and then design software to meet those needs.
Communication skillsDevelopers must be able to give clear instructions to others working on a project. They must also explain to their customers how the software works and answer any questions that arise.
Computer skills.Developers must understand computer capabilities and programming languages in order to design effective software.
Creativity.Developers are the creative minds behind new computer software.
Detail oriented.Developers often work on many parts of an application or system at the same time and must therefore be able to concentrate and pay attention to detail.
Interpersonal skills.Software developers must be able to work well with others who contribute to designing, developing, and programming successful software.
Problem-solving skills.Because developers are in charge of software from beginning to end, they must be able to solve problems that arise throughout the design process.
