provide standardized solutions for common integration problems within an
enterprise. Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIP) provide a common
language for describing integration problems and solutions, while
Integration Architecture Patterns address high-level concerns of
enterprise architects. Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) patterns
provide guidance for designing and implementing service-oriented
architectures, ensuring that services are scalable, reusable, and
loosely coupled.</em> ### Enterprise Integration Patterns <em>Patterns
