I was asked by my boss to decide what book on SOA is good to buy and I don't know a thing even with SOA in basics. I would like to ask you guys who know good about this topic.
Any recommendations for a good SOA book (even for beginners stuff). Thanks in advance.
Might as well just look for articles on the internet since SOA is case to case, eg. if your back-end is Oracle then check out their SOA site, if its MS then check MS's SOA site.
In the end your better off getting consultants (check credentials) rather than relying on what you read yourself... the research will help bridge the communication gap and allow you to take in their recommendations with a grain of salt... That's it, don't raise your expectations, get expert help.
Thanks. Btw, it's Oracle on the other side so might be getting myself on OTN. Again, thanks.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/soa/index.html Use internet explorer, firefox sometimes hangs on that area of the site.
Also, take care in using web services in your SOA architecture... easy to wrap up a PL/SQL package as a web service but it's a possible bottleneck since the web service is single connection to the database; no connection pooling.
