SOA en-us Copyright 2008, SOA Systems Inc. http://www.soamag.com/I23/1108-1.asp To achieve the benefits of SOA, enterprises must realize that traditional approaches to IT project management (where a project is considered in isolation, requirements are defined, and budgets are allocated) can no longer work.
