Runner-up Northern Trust built a service-oriented architecture that promises big efficiency gains

With $2.3 trillion in assets under its management in 97 financial markets, multi-bank holding company Northern Trust treats business processes such as auditing, logging and security with the utmost seriousness.
The framework, created using Management Foundation from AmberPoint, allows for the first time interoperability between development environments that Northern Trust uses for online applications. "This nestles right into the Java space and right into the [Microsoft] .Net space, with very little custom coding required," Lind says.
Northern Trust has used BEA Systems' WebLogic application server, which supports the Java 2 Platform Enterprise Edition platform, for about five years. In late 2003, it upgraded to the latest version - 8.1, aimed at SOA development - coincident with bringing .Net in house. Lind says .Net appealed to the architecture division for a number of reasons: the component-oriented Visual C# programming language, the rapid development environment, ease of integration with other Microsoft applications, and availability of .Net applications from independent software vendors.
