| Cambridge,
MA - 19 July 2007: — Cambridge Technology Enterprises (CTE)
today announced its participation in an advocacy group called SOA Consortium,
a committed group of end users, service providers, and technology vendors,
with an objective of spreading SOA awareness.
The SOA Consortium has defined a vision of widespread
SOA adoption, and has set strategic metrics of 75% penetration in the
Global 1000 and 50% adoption to midsize organizations. CTE, a CMMI level
5 thought leader, innovator, and a leading provider of comprehensive Service
Oriented Architecture (SOA)-based solutions and services will leverage
this opportunity in building and integrating Enterprise Transformation
applications within the midsize market segment.
SOA Consortium’s main objective is to drive the
industry towards standardization and adoption of Service Oriented Architecture
and CTE’s membership in the consortium is a stepping stone to be
the world leader in SOA based solutions. CTE is dedicated to SOA, not
because it is a new technology, but it is the right technology that helps
our customers. SOA, when correctly adopted, supports business agility
while minimizing long term integration expenses. Through the proper integration
of business systems and processes, SOA allows us to Think Big, Start Small
and Scale Fast while providing long term value to our customers.
Speaking about this initiative, Bhaskar Panigrahi, CEO,
Cambridge Technology Enterprises quoted, “Service-oriented architecture
adoption is a key enabler for the 21st century enterprise and is perceived
by business executives as an IT integration and productivity story. Enterprise
SOA practitioners would greatly benefit from a vibrant practitioner community
to drive local, business-driven, SOA success, and to spur broader enterprise,
and industry-wide, SOA adoption.”
“The SOA Consortium continues to see a great response
from organizations from a wide range of backgrounds. SOA is a powerful
business agility story that resonates across the industry and can be a
benefit to organizations of any size,” said Richard Mark Soley,
Ph.D., executive director, SOA Consortium. “The SOA Consortium is
delighted to welcome Cambridge Technology Enterprises to our community.”
