SO-Aware™ brings all of this great technology directly to your fingertips.

SO-Aware provides a flexible and innovative design to enable the management, configuration and testing of web services in the enterprise. Contrasted against the complexity of traditional UDDI-centric SOA governance products, SO-Aware uses a simple and unique design based on the principles of REST and OData which enables the manipulation of service artifacts using simple HTTP GETs and POSTs.

SO-Aware can manage web services independently of the web services technology on which they were developed. However, SO-Aware excels at the management of WCF services by enabling support for native elements such as bindings, behaviors and WCF configuration elements.

The first release of SO-Aware™ includes the following capabilities:

Service Cataloging
SO-Aware provides the infrastructure to organize different versions of web services using a simple category-based taxonomy. SO-Aware extends these capabilities beyond traditional SOAP services by supporting REST and OData  services.

WCF Centralized Configuration
Configuration management is by far one of the biggest challenges of WCF solutions. SO-Aware provides a creative model for the centralization and configuration of services and endpoints that removes the need for maintaining large and complex configuration files. Additionally, SO-Aware facilitates the modeling and creating of configuration artifacts such as bindings or behaviors in a way that is accessible to non-WCF  experts.

Service Testing
The first release of SO-Aware includes a sophisticated testing subsystem that enables the testing of WCF services. The tests created using SO-Aware can either be executed on-demand using the management portal or periodically using the test scheduling system. Additionally, SO-Aware tracks the execution of tests and enables specific analytics that help testers and members of IT operations teams accurately monitor the behavior of the  tests.

Dependency Modeling
Services that depend on other services are very common in SOA environments. SO-Aware enables developers and architects to model the dependencies between services using a simple visual interface included in the management  portal.

Activity Monitoring
SO-Aware enables a simple model for tracking the message flow for the various services in your SOA. Using this information, SO-Aware provides specific analytics that help to accurately describe the runtime behavior of services.

 OData API
SO-Aware is 100% OData centric. In that sense, every capability of SO-Aware from service cataloging to testing is accessible through simple HTTP interfaces using OData as the encoding mechanism.

PowerShell Provider
SO-Aware can be completely managed using a scripting environment based on Windows PowerShell. The current version of SO-Aware includes a PowerShell provider that contains a large number of commands that abstract the different SO-Aware capabilities.

Management Portal
The complete feature-set of the SO-Aware runtime is accessible through a flexible web user interface powered by the ASP.NET MVC2 framework. This interface represents the main vehicle for users to interact with SO-Aware in order to implement the different service management  capabilities.
