Almost everything in IT is measured through a project lens. SOA, due to its global-centric nature, is often viewed as incompatible with project-based software delivery lifecycles. Thus, most companies find themselves with the dilemma of how to effectively advance an SOA initiatives and continue to deliver projects at the same time. http://soa.dzone.com/articles/project-oriented-soa#comments esb SOA SOA Governance SOA metrics http://soa.dzone.com/crss/node/4559 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 06:18:43 -0400 1666 0 Kalali http://soa.dzone.com/sites/all/files/avatars/picture-89352.jpg Mon, 18 Aug 2008 06:18:43 -0400 Kalali 4559 at http://soa.dzone.com http://soa.dzone.com/articles/interview-with-jeff-davis-auth This article represent an interview with Jeff Davis, author of Manning's Open Source SOA, around his book subject and related areas.

JAX-WS 2.0 allows both regular Java classes and stateless EJBs(Session beans) to be exposed as web services. The JAX-WS 2.0 is the core specification that defines the web services standard for Java EE 5 specification.

Properly deployed and managed, it empowers business flexibility where there was none. But SOA is only as good as the data it leverages. Bad data has ruined too many enterprise software projects.

I recently had the opportunity to discuss the book and SOA in general with Robert Laird and Tilak Mitra, two of the authors of the book. It turned out to be an insightful dialog which surfaced real world experiences, continuing the practical theme of the book.
