Gartner: SOA out of 'trough of disillusionment,' cloud on hype peak | Service-Oriented Architecture | ZDNet.com: "Gartner recently released its latest “hype cycle” diagram for 2009, which shows service-oriented architecture to be well past the “trough of disillusionment” and climbing the vaunted “slope of enlightenment.”
Cloud computing, however, is now at the pinnacle of hype (no surprise there, right?), and ready to plunge into the trough. Interestingly, Web 2.0 now seems to be emerging from the disillusionment trough.
Being on the slope of enlightenment is typically the stage where vendors, analysts, and pundits are no longer gushing about how wonderful and world-shattering the technology/methodology is. Nor are they ranting on about what a flop the thing is. Instead, it’s the roll-up-your-sleeves stage, when companies and their technology professionals are getting down and making the stuff actually work.
Next stop: The “plateau of productivity!”"
