The article on "The Trouble with Enterprise Software" by Cynthia Rettig, published in Sloan Management Review, addresses the challenges involved in building enterprise software (which are complex software applications trying to integrate multiple business functions). In the article she discusses SOA as the main platform thought to bring a solution to some of the current challenges with enterprise software, and also suggests some challenges with SOA application in this area.
