Defining SOA for Courts a Growing Business for ConsultancyMay 02, 2008, IT Business Edge
Excerpt:
How’s this for an unusual business model: Defining SOA for corporate attorneys.
ZapThink reports this week that serving as an expert witness about what is and is not SOA is now a growing part of its business, as more companies take to the courts after feeling cheated by high-priced SOA consultants.
But I do admire ZapThink Senior Analyst and Principal Jason Bloomberg for writing “Forensic SOA.” He valiantly works out a legal definition for SOA. I suggest you read the whole piece, because it’s quite detailed and intriguing. Ultimately, however, he admits ZapThink’s definition of SOA largely depends upon exemption – in other words, it’s easier to say what SOA is not than what it is.
