Start Small for SOA

This article brings up an interesting point that it may be best to start small when it comes to introducing SOA to an enterprise. While the initial reaction maybe to begin with projects that are high profile, oftentimes without the cooperation from the IT and business departments such projects have the potential to lead to frustration, and ultimately may make individuals feel that SOA failed. To prevent this feeling, it could be beneficial to start on smaller projects where there is plenty of cooperation in order to build “momentum”. With one successful project, it becomes easier to show the benefits in order to gain cooperation on the second, and thereby gaining trust in the usefulness of SOA for organizations.
