So the problem isn't to apply MORE technology, but rather to let the human side catch up with the equation? Sometimes in our haste to be techies, we forget that there's a balance with human activity. It's quite possible that companies already have all the technology they need to make SOA a reality. So, what's preventing SOA adoption? Maybe it's not the need for more technology. I'm not advocating a strong position here, but I am saying that there is another side to this argument / debate that is worth discussing. I don't think anyone is suggesting to ditch technology and go back to typewriters (ok, maybe the Selectric branch of IBM might suggest that ;), but I think the emphasis has been placed too much on technology as being the sole answer to the problem. I see here a natural counterweight that requires us to think first in terms of human activities and then in terms of technology enablement rather than vice-versa.
