is a great Oracle white paper on the subject.
As the technologies and business practices surrounding BPM, SOA, and Web 2.0 mature, more and more organizations are adopting them both individually and collectively. As a result, fundamental changes have arisen in the way IT and business stakeholders work together. Although the opportunities this presents are enormous, so too are the risks: security, inefficiencies, disruptions, and possible organizational misalignment. To help you in your assessment of these technologies and the benefits they offer (including for executive initiatives such as Lean-Six Sigma, portfolio management, and acquisition transformation as well as mission-focused solutions in areas such as intelligence, defense, and logistics), this Oracle white paper assesses the benefits and risks of these solutions and presents real-world perspectives and case studies as the foundational elements for its analysis.
