Some argue that Web 2.0 and SOAs have significantly different elements and thus cannot be regarded as parallel philosophies. Others, however, consider the two concepts as complementary and regard Web 2.0 as the global SOA. This paper investigate these two philosophies and their respective applications from both a technological and business perspectiveenService-Oriented ArchitecturesWeb 2.0Mash-upsINTERNET OF SERVICESInternet Computing and Economic ModelsUser-Service InteractionConverging ConceptsConvergence of Web 2.0 and SOAjournal article
