Subject: RE: [soa-rm-ra] Are we being ignored?


I agree. I also agree with Ken's comment. That may be due to the 
sheer weight in terms of number and the quality of the constituencies 
we're hearing from which are a bit impatiently waiting for us. I 
think the SOA Harmonization paper makes it fairly clear, as well, 
that SOA applies within AND across organizations, not just within.

In the end I think our definition for SOA. that it is a set of 
principles that spans organizations and the overall ecosystem, a 
point which the NCOIC (Net-Centric Operations Industry Consortium) 
represents, too.

This manifesto viewpoint is self-limiting, and pretty clearly aiming 
to "own" the field with all this certification stuff and whatnot. In 
the end, the market will weed out the field.

If one set of companies in just about any given domain or business 
sector/segment employs tools that span across any number of 
enterprises within the domain and optimize both choreographies and 
orchestrations of services, and another group employs tools that 
support only one or maybe two vendors' intra-enterprise ESBs that do 
not span across all enterprises in that domain such that only those 
companies who use the same tools can orchestrate their services and 
likely can't adopt a strategy using flexible choreographies, I would 
be on the former group surviving rather than the latter, unless there 
is a de facto monopoly involved.

Cheers,
Rex
