White Paper: Agile Solutions Requires Developing for 'Choice'

[David RR Webber - XML ebusiness <Gnosis_@compuserve.com>]

Grappling with todays implementation technology choices
for business solutions is one of the toughest out there
and especially avoiding "lock in".   

DoD DFAS is one of the larger organizations that faces
these critical and expensive issues.

So is there a better way?  This new white paper looks
at developing work within OASIS that uses established
and proven foundation technologies today - to enable
the systems of tomorrow - by focusing on a 
'Business First' approach and externalizing the 
business logic through use of choice point services.

How far out is this?  Surprisely its dramatically near;
by adding XML APIs to existing vendor products initial 
proof-of-concepts are feasible today.

And the OASIS BCM TC resource site also has copies of the draft 
specification and more details.
