open-in-new
<p>Web-oriented architecture (WOA) was coined in 2006 by Nick Gall of Gartner. It is a <a href="/facts/Software_architecture/1Hokp0Ed">software architecture</a> style that extends <a href="/facts/Service-oriented_architecture/g8krR0dk">service-oriented architecture</a> (SOA) to web-based applications. WOA was originally created by many web applications and sites, such as social websites and personal websites. </p>
