Josuttis gives a nice overview of issues pertaining to having a large ecosystem of services, what to do about versioning, considerations on state or statelessness, and a host of other issues. It starts really strong, but unfortunately dies out a bit in the end with some fairly technical asides that only seem marginally relevant. For a book on processes it is thankfully light on cumbersome process frameworks, bringing the true essence of SOA more into view than a lot of other books accomplish.

Very old-school approach to building SOAs. Some interesting thoughts, but not practically useful.

Très bon court résumé sur le paradigme SOA. Présente la philosophie sans entrer dans les détails techniques, mais tout en considérant ces défis techniques.
