With every major software provider touting plans for a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA), people have seen a dramatic increase in the number of inquiries from clients. This AMR Research report shares the findings from the survey of 134 companies on their understanding of SOA, current deployment status, and future plans. In this Report, the researchers expand their research on this subject, looking beyond Web services to include a generally accepted set of technologies that make up Service-Oriented Architectures (SOAs). Here, the researchers study the use of SOA technologies as a means to tame Web services and make them more manageable and easier to use.
