Hi Rebekah:
Thanks for the pointer: it’s a
membership only site even though they say it’s free – do you have a
copy that you can share?

Subject: [soa-rm] "Industry
Analysis Report" from Everware-CBDi on "n Search of a Common SOA
Language"
SOA-RM'ers:
I receive the monthly newsletter from CBDi and usually find much useful and
insightful information. I was disappointed to receive this month's
newsletter with the following headline "in Search of a Common SOA
Language." The article starts out with "we believe that a
widely accepted reference model for SOA will accelerate the take up of SOA,
since tool vendors and practitioners will have a more solid and common base to
work from."
As part of the reference model landscape, the following sources were
analyzed:
W3C Web Services Architecture
OASIS SOA-Reference Model
IBM UML 2.0 Profile for Software Services
OpenGroup Open SOA Ontology
UK
Ministry of Defence Ministry of Defence Architectural Framework Metamodel
Everware-CBDi "A Meta Model for Service
Architecture and Engineering"
I'm working through the article in a bit more depth today....but would welcome
a discussion on this list on the validity of the strengths and weaknesses that
were identified.
