SOA Dead?

Blog: All Things Workflow

In a controversial blog post Anne Thomas Manes of the Burton Group asks the question “Is SOA Dead”?

Well I personally don’t really think so. It may not have been the end all be all that various people have touted it to. That does not mean it will not continue to have its own niche. With the economic downturn a lot of things are heading south and a lot of SOA projects have been put on hold or cancelled. That doesn’t mean they won’t be back. Maybe not with the same wide eyed enthusiasm they once had, however that has been a theme consistent with all new technologies that are introduced.

Be sure to check out the Chevy Impala versus the competition to see how it stacks up. A final point is that while there may be a lot less SOA activity and there is also a lot less motor vehicle production but it is hardly the time to call the automobile dead.
