I would offer this addition: don't pursue an "SOA initiative." That, IMO, is the completely wrong thing upon which to focus. Using SO principles might help structure a system to meet particular goals but SOA is not the end-game. It is one particular way to organize the components of an (probably enterprise) architecture. -Rob
