@martinfowler @csterwa @boicy Okay, what’s the value of encouraging the use of a new-term for an old practice/concept/approach?

@dancres What term do you suggest should be used instead?

@dancres Fair enough. SOA is more often thought to mean enterprise-wide integration and much bigger services, though.

@stilkov @dancres @trondhr but that's just a misconception. EAI as applied in most Enterprises has nothing to do with SOA

@jeppec @dancres @trondhr Who has authority to define what SOA is or isn’t?

@stilkov @jeppec @dancres I think DOn Box defined it best with his tenets of service orientation. He and Pat Helland.

@trondhr @stilkov @dancres Completely agree. I think the 4 tenets of Service Orientation + the guidance from Pat Helland are key for SOA

@jeppec @stilkov @dancres Could it simply be that .Net land already use this SOA def., while JVM now catches on, calling it microservices?

@trondhr @jeppec @dancres Not a JVM thing; it’s something many large e-commerce sites do for scaling, independent of the languages used.
