The biggest barriers to SOA adoption will be non-technical issues related to inadequate governance, lack of clear value metrics, poorly defined requirements and scope, and insufficient business involvement in project prioritization and service identification."1
Giacomo Segalli, Partner at Spike Reply, said, "We have consolidated experience and skills in SOA & Web2.0 Security and via the Vordel partnership we’re able to provide to our customers the perfect “link” between consultancy and technology. As a result we’re able to assist our customer during the entire life cycle of a “SOA Security adoption plan” : from best practices definition, SOA Security & Risk Assessment and, finally, through to design and implementation of a SOA Security Infrastructure."
