Overview

Praise for Service Oriented Architecture Field Guide for Executives

"Kyle Gabhart and Bibhas Bhattacharya take nothing for granted—and you should never assume anything in enterprise IT development, because too many things can happen to jeopardize an entire project. They examine the business objectives of SOA from several vantage points and explain clearly the advantages and risks of using one approach or another. If you're an enterprise IT manager, this book has got to be on your shelf, because you're going to need it sooner or later."

—Chris Preimesberger, Senior Writer, eWEEK; correspondent, The Associated Press; former Java Zone editor, DevX.com

"In addition to good governance, key to the adoption of SOA is clarity of perspective, purpose, and progress. This focused book is very timely for those finding their way in SOA projects."

—Miko Matsumura, Deputy CTO, Software AG webMethods
