Welcome to the SOA Integration Ninja blog
Welcome to my blog!
I suppose my credentials are important to those that read my rants and so I present them here for that reason only. I am the Canadian Chair of the Integration Consortium www.integrationconsortium.org the current leader of their I-BOK (Integration Body of Knowledge) initiative and a Director of the local Calgary Chapter. As mentioned above, I am a Director with my firm http://www.obsglobal.com/ although I do not post on their behalf, they know I am doing this and they are very afraid :-) I am an affiliate architect with ZapThink, http://www.zapthink.org/ and in that capacity, I co-teach a 3 day SOA Course for the Intervista institute www.intervista-institute.com/soa.html I have delivered SOA and Web Services solutions to many clients and I prefer designing/building solutions to selling, managing or even blogging about them.
While it may seem, from my blog title, that I claim to be a Ninja. This is just partially untrue. I aspire to the tenants of the Ninja practice without resorting to violence. I admire the stealth and the awareness that everyone is motivated by different things and that by recognizing a person’s motivation, the Ninja gains an advantage. As a consultant, I desire every advantage I can get and like the Ninja, I am paid to get the job done and then I disappear, leaving my clients armed and ready to reap the benefits of my work (at least that is my goal anyway).
My target audience are those consultants on my team that are delivering SOA and/or integration solutions to their clients right now. My posts and all the content I provide is meant to assist and guide these consultants to deliver quality solutions. If you are challenged in this regard, read on and if not, in the immortal words of Gilda Radner from Saturday Night Live fame: “Never Mind”.
Enjoy,
Murray Laatsch

All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
