Description

This was a project of The Open Group Board, assisted by the SOA Work Group. It has fulfilled its objective, which was to develop the industry’s first collaborative maturity model for SOA adoption.

As more organizations continue to embrace the use of services as the foundation for their next-generation IT infrastructures, it is increasingly important for them to assess their maturity within a complete SOA migration path and identify how to maximize business benefits from their adoptions. The OSIMM enables them to do this by providing a model and an assessment method.

Deliverables

• The Open Group Service Integration Maturity Model Technical Standard (Version 2)

Latest Accomplishments

Version 1 of the Technical Standard was published in August 2009.

The OSIMM has now been submitted to ISO under the PAS process, with the aim of making it an International Standard. A second version of the Open Group Technical Standard has been published, with the aim of addressing comments made by ISO, so that the Open Group and ISO standards will be aligned.

Next Steps

Approval by ISO of the OSIMM International Standard.
