SOA is not back. It never left. It just much more mature now and easy to implement thanks to RESTful APIs.

- Daishiman 13y agoAgreed. A few years ago SOA = a bunch XML-defined web services with ill-conceived and complex grammars + J2EE "enterprise" stuff and unusual return formats. The maturity of REST has resulted in simpler return types, more mature and easier-to-use serialization libraries, and explicit, English documentation to define interfaces (for the most part). It's a welcome change.
