BEA Offers a Break From Traditional Integration Cost and Complexity
This is BEA's current integration pitch, in brief: Aug. 26 -- DID YOU KNOW? Integration projects consume an inordinate proportion of IT budgets -- nearly 70 percent of software spending, according to some analysts. Integrating software applications, whether they are legacy, packaged, or custom applications, is notoriously difficult because businesses have traditionally been forced to rely on proprietary integration technologies that require a tremendous amount of custom work specific to each implementation. The initial integration expense is therefore large, and when changes are made to any part of the enterprise, the integration work has to be redone. There is a better, more cost effective way. Along with 30 new integration adapters available at the end of this month, customers of BEA Systems will have access to a total of 150 adapters for BEA WebLogic Integration(TM). These adapters are based on J2EE Connector Architecture, the Java standard for application integration, and take advantage of BEA's enhancements to the existing J2EE Connector Architecture standard that increase their usability and reliability. With the emergence of the J2EE Connector Architecture standard and Web services, the cost and complexity associated with adapters has been lowered, allowing customers to receive more comprehensive integration solutions at a better total value.
Palm and BEA Partner to Mobilize Web Services in the Enterprise
Aug. 27 -- Palm Solutions Group, the pioneer in the field of mobile and wireless Internet solutions and a leading provider of handheld computers, and BEA Systems, Inc., the world's leading application infrastructure software company, today announced a long-term, strategic relationship to bring Web services to Palm(TM) branded handhelds.

Palm and BEA will work together to integrate this solution with BEA WebLogic Server 7.0(TM) and BEA WebLogic Workshop(TM) products as server-side controls. This Palm SG solution will be the first WebLogic Workshop control developed for a handheld device. http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/020827/sftu053_2.html
The Java Rule Engine API (JSR-94) specification has just been released for public review
The API prescribes a set of fundamental rule engine operations. The set of operations is based upon the assumption that most clients will need to be able to execute a basic multi-step rule engine cycle, which consists of parsing rules, adding objects to an engine, firing rules and getting resultant objects from the engine. The set of operations also supports variations of the basic cycle, particularly variations that would occur in J2EE server deployments.
Read the Java Rule Engine API Specification Final Review Draft. Check out JSR 94: Java Rule Engine API Specification and see http://www.theserverside.com/home/thread.jsp?thread_id=14953 for comments. Essentially, JSR-94 is similar in intent to part of SpiritIntellect (the ECA framework part, if I remember right...).

Web Services: is it CORBA Redux? (Sonic article)
In an article for C|Net, Sonic's Gordon Van Huizen explains why the future of Web services is at risk http://news.com.com/2010-1071-954808.html Sonic puts the case for "document oriented" (ie message driven) web services over RPC style interfaces which - like CORBA - are "fundamentally flawed". We wouldn't disagree with that; this piece explains the issues briefly but clearly.
