I think it's a question of
service providers, but more specifically of what *types* of services. So there
can be data service providers, perhaps process service providers (e.g.
BPEL-based processes), and perhaps even application service providers in a
different sense than the traditional ASP (perhaps service-based
applications).

Re: [soa-rm-ra] random question
Michael,
My question is whether there are providers in the SOA sense for something
other than services. For example, one could say there are data providers
but wouldn't they have their data sources accessed using services? Does
that apply to all providing stakeholders?

Aren't users of the services stakeholders?
Aren't manufacturers of equipment stakeholders?
Is the government that collects a tax or regulates a
stakeholder?
Aren't the "victims" we discussed at the F2F
stakeholders as well?

Can we have stakeholders who are providers or

SOA that if you provide something other than a service, that something is a
capability that must have a service access, so you always end up a service
provider?
