A SOA for Shipping - The 20-Ton Packet. One of my favorite example of Service-Oriented Architecture outside of IT is intermodal containerized shipping. So I can't believe that I haven't blogged about the great Wired magazine article, The 20-Ton Packet, that makes the same analogy between the Internet and container shipping that I do. My analogy goes somewhat deeper into the concept of spanning layer, etc., but the article is great, nonetheless. 5:40:29 AM
