Tactics, Strategy and SOA in the cloud – conflicting views
I’m in two minds about Service-Oriented-Architecture (SOA). On the one hand it seems obvious that future systems will need to inter-operate increasingly in order to gain business benefits without requiring complete software development projects. On the other hand, I am distinctly under-impressed by the current approaches to SOA, and even by the emphasis on services rather than the equally applicable resources, messages, or processes as the integration building blocks.
Here are a bunch of conflicting views on this area which have collected in my “blog this” queue over the last few days:
InfoQ Article: Will Cloud-based Multi-Enterprise Information Systems Replace Extranets?
Will Cloud-based Multi-Enterprise Information Systems Replace Extranets? (confusingly, a different article with the same title!)
Meme Agora: Tactics vs. Strategy (SOA & The Tarpit of Irrelevancy)
Enterprise Java Community: Extend the Data Grid With Hub-less Messaging
