cheaper, and more logical ways to build applications and unite the silos of
functionality they still depend on. One approach that has met with some
success is the concept of just-in-time integration - a technique to combine
new functionalities as quickly and cheaply as required, whether they reside
inside an organization or outside of it (i.e., with a business partner).
From the architectural perspective, just-in-time integration is a cornerstone
of service-oriented architecture (SOA). Under SOA, applications consist of
aggregations of calls to services. Services are simply coarsely grained
