Pitfalls of SOA

Question

Explain the common pitfalls of the SOA?

Answer 1

a) One of the most common pitfalls is to see the SOA as an end, instead of a means to an end. Developers who focus over building an SOA solution than solving a specific business problem are more likely to form the complex, unmanageable, and unnecessary interconnections between the IT resources.

b) Another common pitfall is to try to solve multiple problems at once, than solving small pieces of problem. Taking a top-down approach starting with major organization-wide infrastructure investments often fails either to show results in a relevant timeframe or to offer a compelling return on investment.
