The pace of change has never been faster. Demands for higher-quality service, often round the clock, are pushing operations to the limit. Especially IT, where you're tasked with:

• Improving operational efficiency – doing more with tighter budgets, getting process oriented and managing existing and strategic initiatives for maximum return.
• Improving customer responsiveness – becoming more aligned with the needs of internal and external customers and driving the flow and availability of informaction.
• Improving business agility – you need to rapidly adapt to business conditions and avoid starting from scratch with new applications and infrastructure as requirements change.

Already swarmed, how can IT meet the ever increasing need to achieve faster time to value? For a growing number of businesses, the answer is developing and deploying a service oriented architecture (SOA).

According to an April 2006 Forrester survey, "SOA adoption continues to be strong... Satisfaction with SOA runs very high: Nearly 70% of SOA users say they will increase their use of SOA, and 46% of large enterprise users of SOA use it for strategic business transformation...Most importantly, enterprises are adopting SOA in roughly equal numbers regardless of their business climate or whether they have extra budget available to fund a move to SOA. The message is clear: It is time to dispense with excuses and begin your move to SOA."
