Adding "smarts" to a modern IT architecture

My buddy Joe posted this late last year - Smart-Enough SOA? 'Decision Services' Will Make It So - in which he discusses the power of Decision Services to bring critical, needed "intelligence" to SOA (and thus BPM). I have been looking for a reason to blog about it and along came SOA, EDA, CEP, BPM posted by Kjell-Sverre Jerijærvi. This reminded me not only of Joe's post but also of my ongoing discussion of the power of decision management and decision services to bring order and smarts to the developing event-driven, process-centric, service-oriented IT architecture. Not only do I think that decision management is critical to event driven architecture, I also think it can really help those organizations
using EDA and SOA in combination as discussed by Jack van Hoof. SOA, EDA, BPM and CEP are all Complementary - and need decisions. And don't you forget it.
