- "Open" is what we would like every piece of code to aspire to, and "enterprise" means a harmonious collection of industrious people and purring machines. They are the magical marketing words, evoking images of all that is good and wholesome. But perhaps they are getting overused. Everything...

- Oracle-Sun: an enterprise catastrophe
- Oracle acquires Sun- that came out of left field. Well not quite. Fellow Irregular Josh Greenbaum talked about Oracle 'completing the picture' with a Sun acquisition back in 2003. Yes - SIX years ago. Putting on my curmudgeon's curmudgeon hat I can't help but think this is...

- 'Business-IT alignment' is dead... whatever it was

- Does 'SOA lifecycle management' say it better than 'SOA governance'?
- Oh what a difference five years makes.
