Morning Coffee 52

  • I finally found a use for the free SOA book I got from attending that Thomas Erl workshop. I’m using it to prop up one end of my daughter’s mattress while she’s sick so she can sleep better.
  • Jeff Tash states axiomatically that CASE has evolved into Enterprise Architecture. I agree with his points about why software construction isn’t like manufacturing, but he seems to be describing BDUF rather than EA. I’m anti-BDUF too, but why blame EA? (via John deVadoss)
  • Joe McKendrick comments on my SaaS/SOA post and wonders if SOA should stand for “SOA Oriented Architecture”. He also writes that most organizations these days don’t have an SOA, they have an AOS, “Agglomeration Of Services”. So true, so true.
  • JD Meier talks up the new VSTS guidance available on CodePlex. Looks like some good stuff in there. I like how the p&p guys are moving from documents to wikis to deliver their guidance.
  • I’ve held off on getting the HD-DVD drive for my Xbox, but I think I’m going to cave soon, where soon == about two months. That’s when The Matrix Trilogy is released on HD-DVD. Right around my birthday too, how convienent.
