Convinced that service-oriented architecture is mature enough and sufficiently trusted by enterprises, at its BEAWorld user conference, BEA Systems has introduced a standard development platform that spans the company's three main product lines, Tuxedo, WebLogic and AquaLogic. <A HREF="http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,2017851,00.asp?kc=EWINFEMNL092006EOAD">Called WorkSpace 360,</A> the platform enables business and IT professionals to work together to build Web-based SOA applications that integrate information from many different applications and data sources. The goal, said BEA CEO Alfred Chuang, is to make it much easier for enterprises to collate data that is usually stored away in many separate applications.
