Service Oriented Architecture SOA Glossary - Service Loose Coupling

Service Loose Coupling is one of eight design principles that is part of the service-orientation design paradigm. The official definition for this principle states the following:

"Service contracts impose low consumer coupling requirements and are themselves decoupled from their surrounding environment."

Common concepts and terms associated with the application of this principle include:

• logic-to-contract coupling
• contract-to-logic coupling
• contract-to-technology coupling
• contract-to-implementation coupling
• contract-to-functional coupling
• consumer-to-implementation coupling
• consumer-to-contract coupling
• non-centralized consumer coupling
• centralized consumer coupling
