SOA Manifesto - Stefan Tilkov's Random Stuff
The reason for the manifesto being somewhat vague, in my opinion, is a good one – describe the values that are common to those who aim to improve upon the typical company's IT landscape, regardless of the actual technical architecture.

Unboxing Web-Oriented Architecture: The 6 Aspects Of An Emergent Architectural Style
by night.kame
Transfer Methods. This is at the core of REST and ROA and is the foundation of Web-Oriented Architecture. You can read Roy Fielding's chapter on REST (he conceived of the approach originally) or you can just follow the simple guidelines here. At other times, protocols like BitTorrent can be used if the requirements warrant it, but these are exceptional scenarios that I will cover at some point in the future.
Ne pas citer XMPP dans les "Transfer Methods" quelque jours après l'annonce de Google Wave, et surtout le mettre dans le schéma au niveau des Microformats fait perdre toute crédibilité à l'article.

Les promesses non tenues des projets SOA

ESB-oriented architecture: The wrong approach to adopting SOA
by Regis (via)
Clients often want to build only an ESB, because that involves a technology challenge without the need for messy business requirements. Building just an ESB becomes an IT field of dreams, where IT builds an ESB and then hopes some SOA will come along and use it. Such an ESB-oriented architecture loses the benefits of SOA. It doesn't create business value. In fact, it incurs cost without reaping immediate benefit. And it doesn't align IT and the business. The better alternative to ESB-oriented architecture is SOA. Don't build an ESB by itself; build it as part of an SOA, preferably one that fits the SOA Foundation architecture that IBM recommends.
