It's an all-or-nothing proposition. Buying into this approach means you have to buy into a strong-governance, top-down, up-front approach to all systems. Few companies will have the financial resources, sufficiently strong governance, or political unity to succeed at this.<BR/><BR/>SAP's tools are the unavoidable endpoint of any Big SOA approach.
