SOA and On Demand apps adoption are both required

Tony,

Nice post. I couldn't agree more. Having legacy and enterprise applications wrapped in a SOA architecture and accessible via Web Services is a must for Next Generation Enterprises. All of the On Demand apps and collaboration in the world will be much less valuable without connecting to the existing mission critical transaction systems. Likewise, SOA alone is not enough for a NGE technology architecture. It is just a first step to getting a complete On Demand architecture in place to allow for collaboration outside of the office that is connected to the enterprise for agile and rapid response velocity.

I'm writing a series of posts now on Next Generation Enterprises, and hope to tackle the On Demand Technology building block in this series down the road, and will be referencing this post too.

    Absolutely!

    The innovation is not achieved only because an organization has adopted the SOA approach to designing or aligning your business.  But the the combination of the Enterprise 2.0 and the agility provided by Service Orientation provide a flexible platform to build upon.

    The organization can now harvest the wave of innovation achieve by enhanced collaboration and adapt their enterprise and LOB systems rapidly to delivery value.  Not only that, but now the Enterprise has a real option to source services from the cloud.  Things that typically have been done inside the firewall are starting to be sourced outside.  Services such as: ERP, Integration, ETL, MDM, etc...  We have identified this as a business implication of SOA in the Re.sults Project that I am participating with BSG Concours. 

    I am following your postings on NGE.
