To everybody out there interested in seeing SCA being more widely adopted.
Recently I posted a general overview of SCA coverage at JavaWorld last
week in San Francisco. Which can be found at
http://agileconsulting.blogspot.com/2008/05/highlights-of-sca-at-javaworld-2008.html
I spoke briefly about the SCA panel that was attended by members of
IBM, Sun SAP and MCd by David Chapelle. After the panel, I had the
chance to briefly speak with Peter Walker of Sun Microsystems
concerning Sun support for SCA. In his opinion, Sun will probably not
support SCA, because in his mind there is no user demand. Peter has
actually invited me to tell him more about "what users want" directly
on my above-mentioned blog entry.
Actually I mentioned during the panel that our CASA tool had some
limited SCA like functionality. Then afterwards I said to you that I'm
not hearing the demand that obliges us to rush to product. Its true -
we're not hearing that demand from users yet and so I'm happy to get any
input that I can. I also added during the panel that more
experimentation is needed in this space - I don' t think we're done yet
w.r.t. tools and techniques for SOA approaches.
Peter.
