MIDDLEWARESPECTRA
Your independent resource on business integration and network computing through middleware and message brokering

MIDDLEWARESPECTRA

MIDDLEWARESPECTRA is published quarterly by Spectrum Reports. Recognized as the independent authority on middleware, Spectrum Reports has been publishing on architectural and related software issues since 1987.

As an authority on the analysis and interpretation of middleware issues and opportunities, Spectrum Reports - through MIDDLEWARESPECTRA - provides a balanced perspective between user experiences, product perspectives and implementation knowledge. These insights cannot be found both reliably and collectively through any other source.

Nick Denning, Chief Technical Officer, Strategic Thought (page 2)

SOA: customer and business value
