Amazon Has Got a Winner in the Form of SWF
Cloud is the true implementation of Service Orientation. There may be some resistance and reluctance in adopting true SOA in the traditional environments. But on the Cloud, there is no choice. The only way one can exploit the benefits of the Cloud is by implementing autonomous and independent components that are loosely coupled through asynchronous messaging. Applications architected based on these principles will deliver the best return on the Cloud investments. Amazon has been advocating this heavily by encouraging developers and architects to consume Simple Queue Service (SQS), Simple Notification Service (SNS), Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) and other related services. Building on the same theme, AWS now offers a robust orchestration engine on the Cloud called Simple Workflow Service (SWF) that will make it easy and affordable to build SOA based solutions.
