You may have seen the recent announcement from the Open Group that they announced two frameworks relating to SOA (service-oriented architecture) for governance and an integration maturity model (read more at http://www.opengroup.org/). Now SOA is being discussed more frequently in the IT community as a methodology to deliver IT enabled business change and I believe that both ITSM and Governance professionals need to understand and embrace the opportunities of SOA. Prior to having a look at the announcements from the Open Group can I suggest you first read the Blog entry on “The Open Group announces SOA framework” by Alex Goldman. The proliferation of frameworks is a real issue for IT professionals and we need to understand what to use where, and when and how they all fit together. This is one of the objectives at ISACA where we work diligently on harmonization of the frameworks and standards with COBIT to provide a common point of reference. More information on the COBIT mappings is available on the ISACA website.
