Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is rapidly becoming the mainstream of business computing. The key difference between SOA and previously existing...
Not sure about this Anne. ... That to me is like arguing that engineers should be bus drivers. SOA can work at multiple levels, and certainly far beyond the...

Thanks for including some of my thoughts in your article Michael. There are a couple of points that I'd like to elaborate. ... My reference to "SOA initiative"...
