I am disappointed in Phil Windley for posting something so thinly veiled. Tim O'Reilly doesn't actually care if you participate but he does care if you send him a check
The folks over at Sun have created a wonderful file system for Solaris. I am curious though if they believe that file systems should be understand by all operating systems and what they think their next action item is in this regard. For example, Linux can mount an NTFS partition while Solaris can understand the FAT file system and so on. Should Sun be working on ports of ZFS to Windows and Linux?
Anything that enables the strategic intent of the business through technology will of course become big. The only thing that will cause EA to fall off the cliff is the lack of strong technical leadership, substituting process for competence, outsourcing important research to industry analyst firms you should be doing yourself, stupidity of IT executives who may get the idea to outsource strategy and falling for the thinly veiled sales pitches of software vendors who tell you about their wonderful architectures but really should be telling you something else?
It is a good thing to post good job opportunities in the blogosphere especially ones that have the potential to advance the SOA agenda.
