i-Technology 2008 Predictions: Where's RIAs, AJAX, SOA and Virtualization Headed in 2008?
SYS-CON's Annual i-Technology Predictions Round-Up

Managing web services . Governance . Web service servers . BPEL

DR ADAM KOLAWA
CEO & Co-Founder, Parasoft

Considered to be a visionary in his field, Dr Kolawa's years of experience with various software development processes has resulted in his unique insight into the high-tech industry and the uncanny ability to successfully identify technology trends. As a result, he has orchestrated the development of numerous successful commercial software products to meet growing industry needs to improve software quality - often before the trends have been widely accepted. Kolawa has been granted ten patents for the technologies behind these innovative products.

1. I expect that the industry will recognize that managing web services is much more complicated than initially anticipated. People are finding that the systems being built nowadays are strangely interconnected to the rest of the world… and every time they touch those systems, something else is impacted. I predict that this will lead to growing interest in web service governance.

2. As more and more people expose their existing systems as web service servers, I think we will see a lot of situations where service consumers try to use these applications in ways that the original designers did not anticipate. This is a classic case of missing requirements and miscommunication. I expect that this will also lead to tighter governance.

3. I think that BPEL will continue to advance and people will find new applications for BPEL. Eventually, it will sink in that:

  • Anything can be a web service
  • Everything is a business process.
