 Too little too late August 27, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book added very little to my current understanding of SOA. In fact I am not really sure what it contributes to the design strategies of SOA, and it is kind of too late to introduce SOA in year 2008 -> about almost 8 years after its inception. To learn about SOA basics I suggeet to get the SOA for Dummies book that does a better job on explaining SOA. Also the chapters about SOA security and SOA governance are poor and again do not add to the current industry discussion of SOA. I do not recommend it to mid or expert level SOA persons. But even people that starting with SOA will find it poor to begin with. It is too late too little. I like the case studies in the end of the book and again I am not sure why these cases are for insurance companies. Is this book for the insurence industry only?
 A must have if you are interested in SOA August 21, 2008

I really enjoyed reading this book which will probably appeal to both IT managers and Enterprise Architects. It has a nice balance between the strategy aspect of SOA and its technical side. The key concepts are well defined and clearly illustrated.
For those planning to introduce SOA in their organization - or those who just want to know more on the topic- this book is definitely a must have!
