- Is SOA DOA?

(This document requires the use of Adobe Acrobat Reader). by Anoop Singhal, Theodore Winograd, Karen Scarfone. National Institute of Standards and Technology, Special Publication 800-95, August 2007.

Web services technology can be implemented in a wide variety of architectures, can co-exist with other technologies and software design approaches, and can be adopted in an evolutionary manner without requiring major transformations to legacy applications and databases..."
