COMMON SOA PITFALLS

IT architecture has matured significantly as an approach to successfully address typical IT problems. SOA is a key architectural style for approaching IT system design so that a company's business goals align with IT, enabling them to build resilient IT systems to meet new and changing business requirements.

The advantages of SOA, such as increased flexibility, interoperability, and lower IT maintenance costs, are well documented and have stood the test of time. This record of success is attracting more enterprises to jump on the SOA bandwagon. But SOA evangelists and adopters need to keep a watchful eye when applying SOA because the reality of adopting SOA is that it's not always smooth sailing or completely free from problems. As developers and architects seek to fully understand SOA best practices, it is important to consider the common pitfalls of SOA adoption. Learn more!

 

 

 

FILLING THE GAP

Jim who has been on the team for 6 years and has been a key player in the success of many of the project team’s efforts has decided to leave your organization. He is leaving to pursue another interest outside of IT and has a business plan and loan in hand to seek out his dreams. You do your best to keep your chin up knowing that Jim’s departure will leave a big void in the existing team who incidentally has just begun a high profile solution which will be a major effort of high importance to your year.

Your instinct is to counter and try to persuade Jim to stay. If you can persuade Jim, chances are you may be buying a couple of months before he again chooses to leave. Now the project is in full swing and his departure will be more disruptive. Wish Jim well and bring in a consultant to fill the gap.

On many levels bringing on a consultant to replace Jim is a wise step.  Learn more!

 

 

 

GREETINGS!

I'm here to bring you news of the newly redesigned QAT website! This change isn't just cosmetic. Instead, we think it highlights and incorporates all of the many components that make up the business of QA Technologies today. We have also enhanced the right and left column navigation, so you can see all of the different types of content we have on key technology topics.

So take a look around the new QAT web site and please let us know what you think.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Until next month,
