SOA News : AJAX World - SOA Created AJAX and Rich Internet Applications

SOA has come a long way from a concept to wide-scale adoption by the enterprise at multiple layers of IT. SOA implementation at the UI layer is the latest in SOA adoption trends. SOA has manifested itself in a number of flavors such as the creation of a rich user experience by using technology like AJAX (e.g., Google Maps), provisioning value-added services by mashing up data from multiple sources (e.g., chicagocrime.org), community-based peer-to-peer interactions (e.g., Facebook and Flickr), creating collective intelligence (e.g., Digg and del.icio.us), creating collaborative platforms often catering to a trusted community, and creating modular content-based sites (e.g., Marumushi.com).
