SOA Gartner Summit 2008 Review, Tokyo – Platforms aren’t what they used to be
Posted by Joerg Klueckmann on Jul 21, 2008
I am at the Gartner SOA Summit in Tokyo in the Session held by Mr. Phifer from Gartner. He is talking about the application platform trends of the next years. Here is his message in a few sentences: Good times in economy are over for a while. IT budgets are being cut. Focus is on cost savings.
