What do you understand by S90.03: SOA Design Architecture (S90-03A)?

Like other assessments, the S90.03 or SOA Design Architecture (S90-03A), as it is frequently referred as, gives SOA some leeway to look at a range of subjects. It follows that familiarity with the majority of S90.03 content is required because they test at random on the large range of subjects available. Also keep in mind that experience requirements frequently arise from observations of the average individual and what is required. You can always push past that to succeed with the S90.03, though it could take more work.
