| Abstract: |
Understanding, Planning and Managing the Organizational Change Implicit in Service Oriented Architecture
Service Oriented Architectures are all about creating genuine separation of concerns and reusable business and technical functionality. These seemingly simple ambitions however have the potential to revolutionize business and IT organizations. More important if organization structures remain unchanged, some of the primary benefits will not be realized. In this report we provide guidance in understanding and managing the organizational change required and enabled by SOA.

| Backgrounder: |
As regular readers will be aware, we have been writing about the component-based, service-oriented business for quite a while now. We have long argued that a combination of economic, ecological and technological forces were starting to push industry in this direction, creating strategic advantages for early movers.
We are now pleased to see increasing evidence of serious movement in this direction. Among technology vendors, IBM is now talking seriously about the component-based business as a significant part of its on-demand strategy, and IBM boss Sam Palmisano spent some time discussing this in a recent speech.
