SOA Governance User Quote: "When the times are tough, the first thing most companies do is slash budgets. IT budget gets reduced just like everyone else's. The focus shifts from the strategic initiatives to simply keeping the lights on and completing projects as quickly as possible. Enterprise Architecture efforts are usually the first ones to be eliminated or significantly reduced. Point solutions become the norm resulting in duplication of software, hardware, and overall efforts. Smokestack applications rise up from the ashes of the Enterprise Architecture... Governance becomes unenforceable and largely forgotten."
