What in the article was "service oriented?"

I'm trying to identify in the article where they mention anything that qualifies as "doing SOA." The article doesn't describe anything about the services, the interface they expose (other than via JMS), the granularity of the services, etc. It focuses almost exlusively on the EDA-guided portions and doesn't seem to me to touch on the SOA-guided portions at all.

Substitute EAI and MOM for some of the TLAs and the article could have come from 1999. Other than a couple of statements like "we're doing event-driven SOA" and "...it's still very much SOA" I don't see anything that I would attribute to SOA principles.

What am I overlooking?

The article may have ommitted some things that are really going on at CERN, so they really be "doing SOA" but I can't tell what that is from this article.

I'm interested in hearing what you think about the "SOA-ness" of the article.
