Enterprise service-oriented architecture (enterprise SOA), also known as enterprise

is hurtling down this path and taking its worldwide customer base with it. What does
this mean to you and your landscape? It means that in the months and years ahead, you

to the newer and far more flexible enterprise SOA. Expect the transformation to be sure
and steady. And it need not be difficult.
