Explanation

A is correct because Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) delivery lifecycles typically include both service-oriented analysis (identifying candidate services and their boundaries from business requirements) and service-oriented design (defining service contracts, interfaces, and composition logic) as distinct, recognized phases. These phases mirror traditional software development stages but are adapted specifically for service decomposition and reuse.

B is incorrect because it contradicts well-established SOA methodology - frameworks like those described by Thomas Erl explicitly define service-oriented analysis and design as core lifecycle phases, not optional or absent activities.

Memory tip: Think of SOA delivery as a pipeline - you can't build a service without first analyzing what services are needed and then designing how they'll behave. "Analysis before Design" is true in virtually every methodology, and SOA is no exception.
