Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Loose coupling refers to the ability of services in a service-oriented architecture (SOA) to be joined together or disassembled without being tightly bound together. This means that changes made to one service will not affect the functioning of others, and services can be easily replaced or upgraded without causing disruption to the system as a whole. Choice A refers to interoperability, while choice B refers to a markup language (XML) rather than a software system architecture concept. Choice D is incorrect as there is a correct choice that matches the definition of loose coupling.
