If SOA Looks Hard to You, You're Looking at it Wrong
|
|
Samuel Johnson once said that he was astonished one day to come to the realization that he had been speaking prose all his life without realizing it. Similarly, we in the software industry often attach weighty meanings to what should be simple words and concepts

Can There Be Too Much SOA?
|
|
Web services and SOA aren't the same thing; Web services is one way to get to the goals of SOA. Launched by the Worldwide Web Consortium (W3C), Web services is a set of standards that combine to create the path to SOA, a path that would be standardized enough for all to follow. With Web services, SOA solutions that would likely be as diverse as SOA definitions could converge on a single dazzling path

Why achieving SOA quality can be so difficult
|
|
The forgotten footnote in today's SOA-driven journals, articles and discussion is the notion of software quality. Without quality of an application, the inherent benefits of service-oriented architecture -- to better respond to customers, improve business agility and reduce application development costs -- are lost.

SOA Planning: Sizing Up Your Business Processes
|
|
Before SOA, says Sandy Carter, IBM's vice president of SOA and WebSphere strategy, "you could do all this wonderful mapping of processes, but the underlying technology didn't exist to support any major changes in the process. Now I.T. has the technology to offer services on a business activity basis, whereas before it was on a technical subtask. Process is becoming that common vocabulary that exists between the business and I.T."
