The advice he offers covers topics that I have written about in my posts these last months:
- Share business messages owned by the business people (business process information model)
- SOA has no operations, only business messages delivered to letter boxes - services exchange messages to fulfill business processes
- Services cannot be invoked, they just receive event+payload messages and decide if and how to process it: "Could you possibly have a look at this message and maybe if it suits you do some processing on it" (semantic covenant: the service is always right)
- Business processes are workflows; you need to model long-lived conversations beyond request/response (SSDL, check out the Soya WCF SSDL toolkit at SourceForge)
