ZDNet Make the Case: Business Case Template for Web Services Application Development

Overview One of the challenges of Web services is that IT decision-makers and their staff have to begin thinking of software not as an off-the-shelf-package, but as on-going service that must be maintained and scaled to hundreds of thousands of users. This perspective reaches beyond writing code or integrating data because it has strong implications for systems management, customer service, and sales. Organizations should resist viewing Web services as a short-term project and welcome it as a new architecture for delivering software. This business case will walk you through the opportunities, costs, associated risks, and alternatives when making the case for Web services application development. In addition, a quick look at what Web services can offer is included.
