SOA World Editorial: Defining Terms
It seems like not a day goes by lately in which some new story of malfeasance in office doesn't come out - whether it's lying under oath, using the services of a call girl, or spying on other officials in the government in order to further a personal agenda. Clearly, our elected officials don't have

The SaaS Superhighway: Telecoms and Software Are Converging
The global convergence is under way - with telecom on top!

Digg This!

For years, the telecom industry has been aggressively expanding into IT services to offset declining revenue from traditional voice and data services.

Today telecom's infrastructure-focused IT services such as computer hosting are already commoditized. Telecom companies are trying to figure out how to climb up the IT stack towards application-focused software services where the business value is more direct and the margins higher. As it turns out, the Application Service Provider (ASP) model proved that turning licensed, single-tenant, traditional applications (such as those from Oracle) into a managed service doesn't have the required economies of scale. More importantly, the ASP delivery model is a stretch for the subscription/usage-based telecom providers.

A Little SOA Goes A Long Way
Many organizations make the faulty assumption that SOA is a panacea that can, and should be, applied to every situation. The reality is that service orientation is not the right answer for every scenario. The expense of service orientation cannot always be recouped and, in some cases,
More on the Software Assembly Question - Do Design Patterns Help?
One aspect of the debate over software productivity and assembly is whether or not visual tools can help. I think that they do - visual abstractions can be very meaningful - but I do not know of any visual system that actually solves the complete problem (i.e none have solved the custo
AMD Whistles Up New Champions To Slay its Dragons
AMD has kissed Mario Rivas good-bye and turned processor development over to Randy Allan, the head of its star-crossed server and workstation business, reporting to president and COO Dirk Meyer. Allan is now the new head of AMD's Computing Solutions Group, responsible for the bulk of t

Growing an SOA Garden
Adopting SOA is a lot like gardening. It takes time, skill, a lot of hard work, and the process can be messy and even a bit frustrating at times. I know you've probably heard tons of different analogies that attempt to put SOA and governance into everyday terms and I'm sure that growin
Data Services Modeling: Data Modeling in the SOA Age
Once upon a time data modeling played a central role in the process of developing applications. Thus far in the SOA era, there has been a heavy emphasis on process, and data has all-too-often been lost in the SOA shuffle. In this talk, we present a data model for SOA - i.e., a service-
