Happened to attend a seminar on Agile Development : For Fun and Profit last weekend
came back a little disappointed . Though the topics were good and the presentation excellent , addressing certain aspects like drawbacks of SOA,Agile development could"ve been highlighted .Also the stuff like how a particular technology(SOA, Agile ) helps business could have been more emphasised. IMHO for whatever its worth, I feel WebServices, SOA is just another hyped stuff .The EJB experience is still fresh in mind . Advice caution before embracing any technology if all you hear is fancy names and a few extra frills .
