Service-Oriented Architecture
The RAIN Environment
Capgemini and Intel are proud to present RAIN, a physical and virtual environment dedicated to transforming organizations into Service-Oriented Enterprises (SOEs). Short for RApid INnovation, RAIN leads companies to discover, develop and deliver sustainable new business models 40 percent faster than traditional methods.
What do our clients think of RAIN?
Rapid innovation makes businesses grow. Hear the reactions of six clients – Olle Jonson, CIO of SKF, Henk van der Rijt, Manager, Strategy and Integration, for the City of Rotterdam, Eric Ervin, Director at JB Hunt, Pam Stagner, Director at ConocoPhillips, Todd McClain, Director at BNSF Railway, and Martin Hoff, Manager of Enterprise IT Systems at KPN – after engaging with the RAIN process.

RAIN makes business grow
We believe that the evolution of Service-Oriented Architecture means the end of business as usual. But how can you take advantage?
With neither the right skills, knowledge nor imagination, and without an implementation road map, businesses risk falling by the way side, stuck in the rut of entrenched business and IT practices. If it is to succeed, an SOE must embrace collaboration and openness, and adopt innovative business models.
RAIN fosters this culture entirely, and helps companies unleash business value from the constraints of traditional IT to deliver more value to customers, employees and shareholders.
The two physical RAIN centers in Cupertino, California, and Utrecht, the Netherlands, are complemented by virtual environments, leading technology players and a host of forward-thinking vendors. RAIN promises to take enterprises on a journey to turn their visions of future business models into tangible, working prototypes.
