Infrastructure?
A.

D.
A SOA Service depends on the service infrastructure to satisfy some required capabilities.
E.

Explanation:
The Service Infrastructure side typically provides the Service enablement
capabilities

Web Service, handling SLA enforcement, security, data formatting, and others. Service
infrastructure should be utilized when possible, as it reduces the burden on Service
providers, from an implementation standpoint.
