David Linthicum on SOA

Vendor Driven Architecture [VDA] ,Manage by Magazine [MBM], Rabbit Consulting, think strategically and not around the quarter for making the bonuses. I heard all these terms in a SOA presentation by David Linthicum.

Here are some tidbits from this presentation

Architecture is something that you build not buy

Good Architects are expensive

Its up to you to decide what you want to build – SOA Zoo or SOA architecture

How NOT to build EA - signs to look for

Enterprise Architect is a position with no power and no authority

Architects write the documents that nobody read and talk about the things no body listens
