The document discusses Web-Oriented Architecture (WOA), which is a type of software architecture designed for websites and web applications. WOA builds on Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) by adding support for web services, using REST APIs instead of SOAP. WOA is more than just REST - it is a set of best practices for designing web applications that includes consumption models, standards for data representation and exchange, and supports identity, security, and new distribution models. The document provides an overview of WOA and how it can be used to add value to traditional SOA architectures.
