Abstract

Enterprise wide rather than departmental focus differentiates SOA from the earlier legacy technologies like Client Server and Object Oriented Programming. This enterprise focus not only includes the IT personnel, but also the business personnel into the broader SOA ecosystem. This paper presents lessons learnt from three years of SOA implementation at a large City Government in the US from an enterprise wide application perspective.
