Subject: Re: [soa-rm-ra] what is a generalized SOA RA?
Jeff, Hold on my friend! I do not think I mean what you think I mean, or something like that. To begin, I think you have a much tighter meaning for "architectural design pattern" than I interpret -- I'm not even sure who originally introduced that phrase. I agree "a reference architecture is a reusable asset whose purpose is to form a starting point for architectural development." I also have no vested interest in the form it takes -- we've been experimenting on form since the beginning. As far as proven in use, we are dealing with a chicken and egg cycle but if we don't eventually get to that point, we've wasted a lot of time on the phone. So what do you mean by architectural design pattern? Now a lot of the words I proposed (including parts of the added 1.x) are copied from v0.2 section 1.1. My question has been how we can best up front state what more specific problem(s) our RA is addressing. A SOA that demonstrates working across ownership boundaries (rather than within a division of one company) seems an important point. I proposed others too. If these are best termed architectural principles, so be it. If you can derive more than one RA from a set of RM concepts and relationships, I want to state unambiguously and up front for what architectural developments is our reusable asset the starting point.
