SOA Will Survive...

SOA will survive. In fact, given the down economy and decrease in overall IT spend, this is a crucial time for SOA.

SOA integration projects can yield tremendous business benefits ? from operational efficiencies to value-chain integration to improved customer loyalty. In some cases SOA enables businesses to create new, flexible business processes and accommodate shifts in workload ? a scenario growing in importance given the current economy and increased industry consolidation.

In other cases SOA helps break down barriers between information silos, leading to better integration between ERP, SCM, CRM, HR and Finance. This enables organizations to be more responsive to changing business priorities.

Companies working under budget constraints and reduced headcount (And who isn?t these days?) find this kind of ROI appealing because it promises increased productivity, reduced costs, and optimized IT.

SOA isn?t going anywhere. It?s finally meeting its stride.
