Welcome

Welcome to our blog about all kind of topics that are related to software development. We blog about:

SOA, BPM, EDA, ECM and all the other buzz words. Beware some post might not be so common as you think. We are not scared to go against main stream thoughts.

Technologies like java, maven, springframework, OSGi and front end technologies and frameworks like jQuery, DWR, Flex.

Finally to make this happen we need tools and of course a Mac (well some of us do). So we blog about that as well.

Why ECM should play an important role in the Business Process and SOA discussion

Business communication takes place within the company as well as with the outside world and is always linked to a process. A request, a document, a report, an e-mail, a note, an EDI message, a webform or html webpage or [...]

Should Custom Developed Software be put on the Balance and should we not take reservations for it to replace?
