What am I doing at 4pm on Friday?

Yeah… Almost everyone is gone. So what am I still doing here? Here’s what.

Anyway, I’m reading up on the difference between EDA and SOA. It seems to me that EDA, so hawked in 2003 has mostly gone underground.

However, some companies are pushing new initiatives that seem to combine SOA, EDA and extensions to SOAP. Basically, they advocate that doing SOA with asynchronous messaging and subscriptions isn’t actually SOA, it’s EDA. Or so it seems to me. I’m studying up on the differences, similarities and areas of overlapping, and it seems that I’m not the only person writting about this.
