SOA as cure-all for legacy apps.

CIO.com is running a piece from some ZapThink analysts about how SOA is a great way to free up data from legacy apps.

It's curious they would regard this as “news”. With most service oriented architectures based around web services, it shouldn't be too odd that the same “legacy-saving” technology should still be able to save legacy applications from obsolescence or isolation. The article also has a curious “SOA is great and you should know exciting things about it” tone.

ZapThink? These guys are stuck in 2003.
