« 'If You Don't Know Where You're Going with SOA, Any Road Will Get You There' | Main | A Quick-Start Guide to SOA: Start Anywhere, But Start Nonetheless » July 14, 2008App Servers: Anachronism or Agent of Change in the Age of SOA? Over the years, many companies have turned to app servers -- both Java Enterprise Edition and Microsoft .NET framework -- to handle, under the covers, the "plumbing" of messaging, standards, and protocols. App servers were seen as the easiest on-ramp to integration. However, are they still appropriate for service oriented architecture? How much of a role will app servers play in the SOAs to come? Do companies even need app servers anymore? ebizQ is conducting a survey on application server usage, and the impact of SOA on app servers. This survey explores how enterprises plan to implement new types of applications such as SOA, Web 2.0, mashups, open source, etc. Will you continue to use application servers? Take our survey and you'll be entered to win $100!
