Enterprise SOA: Designing IT for Business Innovation
In Enterprise SOA: Designing IT for Business Innovation, Dan Woods and Thomas Mattern analyze SAP's blueprint for putting SOA to work. In addition to design, development, and architecture, vital contextual issues such as governance, security, change management, and culture are also explored.
The Project
Evolved Media was approached by SAP to create a book that would help IT professionals to put enterprise SOA to work by exploring design and development as well as contextual issues, such as governance, security, change management, and culture.
Evolved Media’s Role
Evolved Media conducted extensive research, interviewing professionals from SAP, Gartner, Forrester, and others in 120 interviews. A team of six wrote a total of 20 chapters.

This book answers the following questions:
- What forces created the need for enterprise Service-Oriented Architecture?
- How does ESA enable business process innovation?
