ECM and SOA: Still far apart

Added By Tony Byrne at 12-Feb-2008 | Twitter: @TonyByrne |

Today we released a research summary arguing that Enterprise Content Management (ECM) products are ill-equipped to meet the security requirements of Service Oriented Architectures (SOA). To quote Alan from the release:

"Separating out the SOA hype from the ECM reality remains difficult, as vendors have aggressively positioned their products as SOA-ready -- while most are not....When vendors talk about SOA, they mostly mean that they have SOAP-enabled their APIs, but that's not really the point."

 

Our findings come from the recent release of the ECM Suites Report 2008, which evaluates 30 ECM vendors around the globe.
