Consider the OASIS SOA Reference Model (http://docs.oasis-
open.org/soa-rm/v1.0/soa-rm.html) which defines SOA as
"a paradigm for organizing and utilizing distributed
capabilities that may be under the control of different
ownership domains." There is no mention of SOAP or REST
but there is a lot that aligns with things you are saying about
WOA. Most failures have more to do with not appreciating
the idea of a SOA paradigm and instead jump to buying
someone's SOA tools.
