SOA: Me Too!

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is the latest buzzword and fad in the Information Technology world, and all the big vendors are jumping in to get a piece of the action. A recent article in eWeek entitled "Oracle Upgrades SOA Offerings" provides some humorous insight into the competition:

"However, Bill Roth, vice president of BEA Systems' Workshop Business Unit, said of Oracle's SOA news: "We have been talking about SOA since 2003, and IBM has recently painted a good part of its software with a lovely coat of SOA paint. [From Oracle] expect another 'Me Too' announcement on how everything they do is SOA, and comes from the database."
